KEVIN BACON AND KYRA SEDGWICK HAD BEEN MARRIED FOR 35 YEARS AND SHARE TWO KIDS WHO INHERITED THEIR FACIAL FEATURES AND FOLLOWED IN THEIR FOOTSTEPS.
Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick are one of Hollywood’s longest-married couples. In the over three decades that they have been married, they have raised two beautiful kids who followed their Hollywood footsteps.
Years after the “Footloose” actor and “The Closer” actress were married, they found out they were distant cousins after conducting a DNA test.
Even though they found the test results a little bit unsettling, the bond between Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick has grown stronger with time.
Kevin Bacon, born July 8, 1958, and Kyra Sedgwick, born August 19, 1965, first crossed paths when he was in a play in the 1970s. At the time, Sedgwick was 12 and had just seen the matinee with her brother.
In 1987, they met again when they worked on the PBS film “Lemon Sky.” At that point, Sedgwick strongly believed Bacon wasn’t her type.
She saw him as aloof and cocky when he jumped into the van they were getting picked up in after his labrador. Sedgwick also thought Bacon thought of himself as being cool.
She recalled in an interview that as she watched his backside while he was walking away, she was surprised some girls liked that. Little did Sedgwick know that would be one of her favorite parts of Bacon’s anatomy.
While Sedgwick thought Bacon was aloof, he thought she was aloof but beautiful. He was immediately in love with her while she was immediately put off by him.
The “Labor Pains” actress later realized Bacon was a sweet guy, and the couple married on September 4, 1988. At the time, she was 23, and Bacon was 30.
