A Hollywood Love Story for the Ages

In a town where marriages often come and go, there is one couple that has stood the test of time and captured our hearts: Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick. Their remarkable love story defies the odds, and it all started with a chance encounter.

A Chance Meeting

It’s hard to believe that their love story began over four decades ago. Sedgwick was just 12 years old when she first laid eyes on Bacon. Accompanied by her brother on a trip to the movies, they stumbled upon a film featuring Bacon. Little did they know that this moment would shape their future.

Fate Intervenes

Ten years later, fate intervened once more. Both Bacon and Sedgwick found themselves working on the film "Lemon Sky". Despite Sedgwick’s initial lack of attraction, Bacon was captivated by her from the very beginning.

"I wasn’t exactly his type," Sedgwick confessed with a hint of amusement. "I remember sneaking a glance at his departing figure and thinking, ‘Well, I guess some girls like that.’"

From Dating to Forever

After overcoming their initial differences, the couple started dating and eventually tied the knot in 1988. Today, they share the joy of raising two children: Travis Sedgwick Bacon, a talented solo musician, and Sosie Ruth, a rising star in the film industry following in her parents’ footsteps.

Love That Lasts a Lifetime

After 34 years of marriage, Bacon and Sedgwick are still infatuated with each other. Bacon never misses an opportunity to shower his wife with adoration, and Sedgwick still feels like the most beautiful woman in the room whenever she’s with him.

When asked about the secret to their enduring relationship, Bacon’s response is refreshingly down-to-earth: "Don’t listen to celebrities on how to stay married." But the truth lies in their unwavering love and respect for each other.

"He is a man of integrity. His moral compass is unshakeable. He is honest, faithful, and that, my friends, is undeniably attractive," shared Sedgwick. "I’m continually amazed by Kevin’s calmness and the absence of ‘crazy’."

Surprising Connections

During an appearance on the television show "Finding Your Roots," a surprising revelation came to light: Bacon and Sedgwick were ninth cousins. Though initially unsettling, they quickly discovered that their familial connection was incredibly distant.

Further exploration into Bacon’s family tree unveiled a surprising lineage—his 22nd great grandfather was none other than King Edward I, the historical figure who battled William Wallace. Bacon humorously added, "As long as they’re not first cousins, it’s all good."

Love in the Time of Pandemic

Like many of us, Bacon and Sedgwick have spent the majority of their time at home due to the ongoing pandemic. Sedgwick has turned to writing, while they both indulge in a plethora of movies and books. Even in the midst of uncertain times, their love continues to thrive.

An Everlasting Love

Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick are the epitome of a Hollywood power couple. Their enduring love story continues to inspire and enchant, proving that true love can withstand anything life throws their way.
