A Love Story for the Ages
Hollywood marriages often crumble under the pressure of fame, making us question if long-lasting love truly exists. However, there is one couple that has managed to defy the odds and capture our hearts: Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick.
Their beautiful love story began many years ago when they were just teenagers. Sedgwick first caught a glimpse of Bacon when she was only 12 years old while watching a movie with her brother. Little did they know that this chance encounter would shape their future together.
A decade later, fate intervened once again. 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 stealing a glance at him and thinking, ‘Well, I guess some girls like that.’”
After overcoming their initial differences, the couple started dating and eventually tied the knot in 1988. Today, they are proud parents to two wonderful children: Travis Sedgwick Bacon, a talented musician, and Sosie Ruth, a rising star in the film industry – following in her parents’ footsteps.
True Love That Endures
Now, after 34 blissful years of marriage, Bacon and Sedgwick are still as infatuated with each other as they were on day one. Bacon never misses an opportunity to shower his wife with adoration, and Sedgwick feels like the most beautiful woman in the room whenever she’s with him.
When asked about the secret to their enduring relationship, Bacon replied, “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,” Sedgwick shared. “I’m continually amazed by Kevin’s calmness and the absence of ‘crazy’.”
Surprising Discoveries and Unbreakable Bonds
During an appearance on the television show “Finding Your Roots,” an astonishing revelation came to light: Bacon and Sedgwick were actually ninth cousins. Although it may have been unsettling at first, they soon realized 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.”
Like many of us, Bacon and Sedgwick have spent most 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.
A Love Story That Inspires
Regardless of their surroundings, Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick epitomize the essence of a Hollywood power couple. Their enduring love story continues to inspire and enchant, proving that true love can indeed withstand the test of time.
Don’t you agree that their love is something truly special?
