Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick have been married for a long time... 34 years, in fact! Bacon shares son Travis Bacon, 33, and daughter Sosie Bacon, 31, with wife Kyra Sedgwick. As both their kids are adults, they live away from the couple. Sedgwick opened up about her own two kids leaving home years ago to Good Morning America. "I think it's a real crushing blow, honestly, when they leave you. It's the only job that you have that if you do it well, you get fired. As a mom, if you do your job well, your children leave you," she continued. "So it's weird and it's hard. I'm grateful to have adult children now, but I think initially it's like, 'Wait, what are you talking about? I birthed you and I took care of you your whole life and now you're leaving me!' It felt wrong."
Despite not having their kids around, the couple enjoys spending time together on their family farm in Connecticut. “I came for a weekend from the city in 1983 and fell in love with Connecticut, bought the farm and it’s been an important place for our family since then,” Bacon said in a previous interview with Hearst Connecticut Media, reports CT Insider. His wife initially didn't like the idea of staying in Connecticut, but Bacon convinced her.
The property hosts a red barn that houses a lot of animals. The couple also regularly post videos and pictures of them in their beloved farmhouse and share sweet videos from their farm serenading the animals around them, particularly the goats!
They also house alpacas and horses. The barn is located in an ample, open space on the farm. They also have a swimming pool and mini orchard on the property. The orchard’s fence starts right behind the swimming pool. The couple uses their red jeep to roam around their expansive property when they aren't getting by on their horses.
The couple, who tied the knot in 1988, previously opened up to PEOPLE about how they've made their marriage work for so long. "Kyra and I believe in each other as actors, as directors, and as talent. She's never been anything other than supportive of me," Bacon said in 2020. "She doesn't have a competitive bone in her body when it comes to me. She takes my successes as hers. I'm the same way."
