It's a big day for Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick, as they celebrate 35 years of wedded bliss! The two represent Hollywood royalty, one of its prime power couples since the late 1980s.
Kevin, 65, took to social media to mark the milestone day with an adorable snapshot of the pair, presumably from the early days of their relationship.
A shirtless Kevin was seen cozying up to and kissing Kyra, now 58, on the forehead as she smiled for the camera, wearing a pink blouse and white mini skirt.
"35 years feels like a heartbeat," he sweetly captioned his photo, immediately being flooded with heart emojis galore from fans and friends on Instagram.
Rita Wilson commented: "You guys! Happy Anniversary! Can you believe it? It goes so fast! We are 35 soon to be 36!" while their wedding planner, Marcy Blum, wrote: "I will remember your wedding on that Labor Day forevah and evah! Happy Anniversary! You make marriage look tempting!"
A fan joked: "Congratulations! The goats and I request a Monday duet to celebrate!" and another added: "I love that you two have such an amazing connection. I hope you are both blessed with so many more years."

However, their first meeting was definitely on the rockier side of things, as the actor explained on the podcast Anna Faris Is Unqualified with Anna Faris last year.

"I was doing a lot of theater when I first moved to New York," he said, adding that Kyra was also starting to explore the scene around the same time.

After the show, a then 12-year-old Kyra spotted the 19-year-old Kevin at a deli nearby and went up to tell him she liked him in the play.

But it was not love at first sight for the both of them, as Kevin stated: "She wasn't really into it at first, I had to chip away at her."

While Anna surmised that she hid her feelings from him, Kevin revealed: "At first, she was put off by me. Because I think…at that age, the way that I presented initially was not, I would say, a down to earth, regular dude.

He also clarified that he had gotten out of a long relationship before that and wasn't sure of how to approach her at first, calling himself "terrified and bumbling." The rest, though, as they say, is movie magic.
