The actor we are talking about is the famous, handsome actor, 65-year-old Kevin Bacon. As he once struggled with life, he is now enjoying his time with his wife.

In a recent interview with Kelly Clarkson, Bacon talked about how he was living in the past.

It was 1976 when Bacon moved to New York, from Philadelphia where he was raised. He visited New York with his sister in the past, as he explained.

When Bacon moved to New York, he first stayed with his sister, and when he found a place, he only had $150 for a month.

“What happened was, it was—I had figured that it was 150—I don’t know where I got the math on that, but that’s…what I had decided…So I went into this—I saw an ad on the back of The Village Voice, and it said, ‘Artists, actors, musicians, residents.’…It was basically a flophouse, really…”

He lived with a pianist in a rental office for four years, as he couldn’t afford an apartment. As he managed to become a successful actor, and changed his own life, he met and married with his wife of 35 years, Kyra Sedgwick.
