“I never lived in New York before and I was able to move to New York for two years and make that show. It was that and getting to be around AnnaSophia [Robb], everybody in that show, [they were] just so fun to be around, even just going back and watching Sex and the City.” he added.

Butler continued, “I remember having an apartment in New York, I’d take a bath and I’d pop on Sex and the City. I was like a middle-aged woman [with] a glass of wine [and] always candles.”

The Switched at Birth star became popular for acting on Nickelodeon and Disney Channel, then he was landed the role of Sebastian Kydd on The Carrie Diaries opposite Robb played by AnnaSophia in 2013.
