Relationships

Trey MacDougal

Trey MacDougal is a heart surgeon from an upper-crust family with an overbearing mother who comes to rival Charlotte. Trey and Charlotte meet after Charlotte, having had a horrible date, is nearly hit by the taxi in which he is riding. Trey steps outside of the taxi to help her out, and it is implied that they fall in "love at first sight." Charlotte feels that Trey is the ideal boyfriend and husband-candidate. After months of dating, Charlotte becomes anxious to receive his proposal. Frustrated with waiting, Charlotte suggests (while at a restaurant) that they should get married, to which Trey casually responds, "All righty." Charlotte is furious at this response, because it was not what she had imagined. Later, Trey makes up for it by stopping in front of a Tiffany & Co. store during a walk and suggesting that they look for "the most beautiful (engagement) ring they have." They decide not to have sex until they are married, but on the day before their wedding, Charlotte gets drunk and visits Trey's apartment to have sex. This is the first time Trey is shown as unable to perform, implying that he may be impotent. Charlotte addresses her concern to Carrie before she walks down the aisle, but is comforted by Carrie and so the marriage between Trey and Charlotte takes place. As a married couple, the two struggle with the lack of sexual activity and their different opinions about having children (as well as arguments centering around his overbearing and domineering mother, Bunny). This ultimately leads to their divorce....
