In 2012, Parker returned to television for the first time since Sex and the City, portraying Isabelle Wright in three episodes of the musical television series Glee. She starred as Frances Dufresne in the HBO series Divorce alongside Thomas Haden Church (2016–2019), for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe Award.
