“The essence of it hasn’t really changed. When he walks into a room, I’m still… I mean, my heart gets a little fluttery and I think, Oh! He’s so cute. He’s so hot. That’s literally the first thing I think.”

WORKING TOGETHER, LIVING TOGETHER

Bacon and Sedgwick have shared the screen several times and have a profound respect for each others' acting talent.

They starred together in "Pyrates", "Murder in the First", "The Woodsman", and "Loverboy".

They have two grown children: Travis, 29, and Sosie, 26. Sosie is following in her parent's footsteps and her acting career is flourishing, though her parents had not wanted her to pursue a career in show business. She is now currently starring as Skye Miller in the Netflix teenage drama ”13 Reasons Why”.

The family lives in Manhattan, far from the Hollywood hype, and commute to Los Angeles when their work demands it.

In a related story, Kevin Bacon and Keira Sedgwick posted a sweet video in which they play guitar together and sing the BeeGee's hit song "To Love Somebody" to commemorate their 30th wedding anniversary.
