Which actress did actor Kevin Bacon marry in 1988?

Actor Kevin Bacon married actress Kyra Sedgwick in 1988.

Bacon and Sedgwick met while working on the television film Lemon Sky, which was broadcast in 1988. They married on September 4 of that year and went on to become one of Hollywood’s longest-lasting celebrity couples.

The couple have two children: daughter Sosie Bacon, who became an actress, and son Travis Bacon, a musician. Sedgwick has also directed films and television episodes, while Bacon is known for films including Footloose, A Few Good Men, and Apollo 13.

A common mix-up is confusing Sedgwick with actresses who co-starred with Bacon in other projects. Sedgwick and Bacon appeared together professionally several times, including in the television series The Closer, in which Sedgwick starred and Bacon directed episodes. Their marriage predates that series by more than a decade.
