The actor Kevin Bacon 66, revealed that met his now wife, Kyra Sedgwick, when she was only 12 years old . However, the star of “footloose” (1984) explained that the First meeting of the duo is far from being romantic .
“I was making a lot of pieces out of Broadway … I was 19, so she should have been about 12. Her mother had seen me in some pieces and knew that little 12 -year -old Kyra wanted to be an actress. So she said, ‘There’s an actor I think you should see’.”
In an interview with The Drew Barrymore Show this Monday (7), the artist recalled that Kyra’s mother took her to see a production of her in New York. “She bought tickets for a piece of mine in Village. And between the afternoon and night session – she watched the matinee – I was buying a sandwich in a delicatessen nearby. And this 12 -year -old girl arrived and said, ‘Hi, I liked you in the play.’
Years later, when they worked together on the “Lemon Sky” telefilm in 1988, Kyra shared the episode, but Kevin still didn’t remember the meeting.
“She says that when we met to make ‘Lemon Sky’, he said, ‘We already met at Village after that piece. I remember?’ And I said, ‘I remember, yes.’ She: ‘Really?’ And me: ‘No’ so she didn’t like me.
Nevertheless, the relationship has evolved. The couple married in the same year as filming and has followed together since, with two children, Travis, 35, and Sosie, 33.
Previously, Kyra described the marriage as a solid and comforting relationship. “Sometimes there is spark, sometimes it’s just chicken. Sometimes it’s romantic and it’s like, ‘my God’. And sometimes it’s just chicken. Baked chicken. But it’s always good and reliable. But the secret to a lasting marriage is not to trust celebrity advice on the secret to a happy wedding,” she joked in an interview with E! News.
