Kevin Bacon went through hard times, but his wife of 35 years stayed near him despite anything.
Kevin Bacon and his wife Kyra Sedgwick met on a movie set in the ’80s.
The couple has been married for 35 years and share two kids.
They once lost “millions” due to a pyramid scheme.
Kevin Bacon and his beautiful wife, Kyra Sedgwick, have been married for three decades. The lovebirds met while filming the 1988 PBS movie “Lemon Sky.”
They walked down the aisle in September of that year and have been married for almost 35 years. Sedgwick dished on what has kept the couple’s marriage going for so long.
In a recent interview, the Golden Globe Award-winning actress shared that the secret of their enduring union has something to do with food. Sedgwick explained:
“Sometimes there’s sparks. Sometimes there’s just chicken. Sometimes it’s romantic and it’s like, ‘Oh my god.’ And sometimes it’s chicken.”
The “Loverboy” star was referring to “roast chicken,” adding, “It’s always good and reliable.” Sedgwick further stated the “secret to a long-lasting marriage is not to take advice from celebrities about the secret to a happy marriage.”
The “The Closer” star reflected on how she fell in love with Bacon and knew he was the right man for her. When they crossed paths, she was “fiercely independent.” However, when she met the Pennsylvania native, she felt a need to marry him.
Sedgwick said she could not describe the feeling, but it scared her because she was not used to depending on others. But something about Bacon made her let her guard down. She gushed:
“He was the one, you know? He was just the soul mate. He was just the one.”
Sedgwick recently helped her spouse celebrate his 65th birthday. Bacon marked the special occasion on his Instagram alongside a picture of him and what his beloved wife prepared for his birthday. He captioned the post:
“[…] My wife has made this a beautiful day. She has said recently our marriage is like roast chicken, so she made a perfect chicken for dinner followed by my favorite— buckwheat banana bread with chocolate icing. Perfect day.”
