When we think of strong, loving Hollywood couples, Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick come to mind.
They have been married for over 30 years, celebrating their 35th anniversary this year with a sweet throwback photo on social media.
Despite their long careers in the entertainment industry, there was a time when they lost millions…
In 2009, their lives turned upside down when they got caught in Bernie Madoff’s infamous Ponzi scheme, which was the largest in history. This scam cost them up to $30 million, as estimated by StyleCaster. Bacon mentioned on the SmartLess podcast that they lost “most of our money.”
They were just two of many celebrities and high-profile figures who were scammed by Madoff’s “too good to be true” financial schemes.
“There are obvious life lessons here. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is,” Bacon told hosts Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, and Sean Hayes. “When something like that happens, you look at each other and say, ‘Well, that sucks. Let’s roll up our sleeves and get to work.’”
Despite the setback, 65-year-old Bacon and 58-year-old Sedgwick used the adversity as an opportunity to reflect and focus on the positives. “We’ve made it this far, our kids are healthy, we’re healthy. Let’s look at what we have that’s good,” Bacon said on the October 2022 podcast.
Bacon and Sedgwick decided to step away from the spotlight and Hollywood, finding peace and happiness on a cozy farm in Connecticut.
Over time, they shared glimpses of their daily lives on social media. Sedgwick posted so many videos of her and their goats on TikTok that people now recognize her more for that than her acting roles!
“People say, ‘We love you singing with the goats.’ Kevin and I are like, ‘Great, but have you seen our movies or TV shows?’ But it makes people happy,” the actress and producer told People in March this year.
Interestingly, Bacon and Sedgwick aren’t the only celebs drawn to farm life. In fact, famed actress Jennifer Garner decided to buy back the farm her mother grew up on and transform it into an organic produce project for baby food.
What do you think of celebs gravitating towards farm life? Do you think it would be a nice break from the fast-paced Hollywood experience? Let us know in the comments!
Fans ‘seriously concerned’ after Rachael Ray appears to slur words in new video
Rachael Ray’s latest appearance is sparking concern for the renowned chef and television personality.
Fans immediately took to the comment section of Ray’s newest video promoting her show, Rachael Ray in Tuscany, expressing their worry about the current state of her health.
“She does not look like herself at all. I hope shes ok.”
On Monday, the 56-year-old shared a clip of herself making the late singer Tony Bennett‘s favorite dish, ossobuco, while telling the story of how she “almost killed him.”
In the clip, Ray shared that when Bennett went to sit down in his chair it “slid out from under him and he hit his head on my marble counter behind him.” His wife assured Ray the crooner would “pop back up,” which thankfully he did.
While the Food Network star recalled her story about Bennett, the majority of people in the comments were focused on Ray’s appearance.
Some even questioned if she was drunk or suffering from a medical episode.

Even though many were quick to diagnose Ray, there were still plenty who came to her defense.
“I don’t hear any slurring but she has compassion in her telling of the story. She’s a good person and her vibes are good.”
“She got emotional talking about her friend is all.”
“For heavens sake! She’s fine! Not 22 and cutesy any more, but shes fine. Missing her friend.”
Although Ray’s speech was slow and deliberate throughout the clip, the television personality has yet to address any of her fans’ concerns.
Whatever the case may be, I do hope Rachael is okay. Please share.
