Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick may be renowned superstars in their own right, but what many people forget is that they have been happily married for over three decades. Their love story began when Kyra, just 12 years old at the time, saw a movie starring Kevin and met him afterwards. Little did they know that their paths would cross again years later on the set of “Lemon Sky.”
Initially, Kyra admitted that Kevin wasn’t her type, recalling how she vividly remembered looking at his butt and thinking that some girls might find it appealing. However, she changed her mind, and the couple tied the knot in 1988 in a private ceremony in Connecticut, followed by a reception for close friends and family at the Manhattan club Au Bar. Their journey together was just beginning.
The couple soon welcomed their first child, Travis Sedgwick Bacon, followed by their daughter Sosie Ruth Bacon. As their children pursued their own careers in the entertainment industry, Kevin and Kyra celebrated their anniversary year after year, defying the odds of a long-lasting marriage in Hollywood.
Their love for each other is evident not only in their public declarations of affection on social media but also in their unwavering support for one another. Kevin once mentioned that meeting Kyra during a difficult time in his life gave him the strength to keep going.
However, their journey hasn’t been without challenges. In 2008, they experienced a significant loss when their life savings were lost in the infamous Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme. Although they lost millions, they realized that the most important things in life were still intact— their children, their health, their love for each other, and their home. They weathered the storm together and came out stronger.
In an interesting twist, Kyra and Kevin discovered on the TV show “Finding Your Roots” that they are actually distant cousins, adding a surprising element to their love story. While Kevin found it somewhat unsettling at first, they both accepted and embraced their familial connection, grateful that they weren’t first cousins.
Through the years, Kevin and Kyra have had the opportunity to spend even more time together during quarantine at their home in Los Angeles. While Kyra hones her writing skills, the couple enjoys watching movies and reading together. Despite the passage of time, Kevin continues to make Kyra feel like the most beautiful woman in the room, a testament to the strength of their bond.
Their love life is also fueled by a deep desire for each other, as both emphasized the importance of maintaining a healthy sexual relationship. It’s clear that their physical and emotional connection is a vital aspect of their marriage.
So, what’s the secret to their lasting marriage? Kevin once advised against seeking advice from celebrities on how to stay married. Instead, their success lies in the fact that they are both honorable, ethical individuals with high moral standards. Kyra finds Kevin’s levelheadedness and lack of “crazy” constantly awe-inspiring.
As we celebrate this remarkable couple, it’s safe to say that Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick are the epitome of true love in Hollywood. Feel free to share your thoughts on this beautiful couple on our Facebook page.
