Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick may have had a love that lasted decades—32 years in fact, according to E! Online—but for Sedgwick, it was far from love at first sight. After the first couple of encounters with Bacon, Sedgwick was not impressed with the actor. Sedgwick recalled to Piers Morgan in a 2012 interview that the second time she met Bacon she thought, “‘He’s really cocky and he thinks he’s so cool.'” But for Bacon, it was quite the opposite. “I found her, you know, really very beautiful and sexy and aloof,” he said during his own appearance on Morgan’s show. “And I was just immediately in love with her and she was just immediately put off by me.”
