The secret behind Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon's 30-year relationship: "Don't listen to celebrities on advice about marriage"

Lots of incomparable chemistry, an evergreen sex-life, and most importantly, the sacrifices they have made for each other have kept their strong bond of 30 years alive.

Three decades later, Kevin Bacon and his wife Kyra Sedgwick are still rocking the husband and wife game. It's their marriage anniversary this September 4, and what's their secret you ask? Nothing. In that, they are not one to give out marriage advice like some sort of pros and they are willing to stick to that rule no matter what, as Bacon revealed in a recent interview.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight about their 30 years of married life, Bacon said: "Whatever you do, don't listen to celebrities on advice on how to stay married. That's my secret." And somehow, Sedgwick resonates the same idea, as was clear from her response to Piers Morgan's question back in 2012. "I always get uncomfortable with that question," she explained, "because I always feel like, the secret to a happy marriage is to not take advice from celebrities about marriage."
