Kyra Sedgwick threw it back to the 1980s with an old photo of herself with her husband Kevin Bacon and fans couldn't get enough of it.

The Closer star took to Instagram with a black and white snapshot with the Footloose actor and highlighted her mono-brow. "Got to love my uni-brow," she wrote which prompted a barrage of comments from fans who could relate to the eighties trend. 

Kyra was branded a "baddie," and a "legend," not just for her eyebrows but for her full, curly hair too.

And it wasn't just Kyra who had some big tresses! Her social media followers also remarked on Kevin's unruly locks which were spiked up and wild-looking. 

The pair made a cute couple in the snap in which they appeared to be drinking in a bar. 

Longtime love

Kyra and Kevin have one of the longest romances in Hollywood history, having married in 1988 after they starred together in a PBS version of Lanford Wilson's play Lemon Sky in 1987.

During filming, Kevin developed a crush on his co-star and devised a plan to ask her out.

He organized dinners for the cast and crew in the hopes she'd attend, but when she didn't he took a different approach and recommended a masseuse who worked next to his gym.

Their secret to a happy marriage

They are still madly in love

People often ask the couple what the secret to their longtime marriage is and Kyra has a fun reply. 

"I joke that the secret to a successful marriage is to not take marriage advice from celebrities," she told People

"I guess if I had to think too much about [our marriage], that would probably not be a good thing. We just got lucky. I honestly believe that's the truth."

She added that self-love is a key factor in their happy union. "That thing people do, 'If only I had this if only I had that…', there has to be some piece of wholeness that is within yourself before you can let somebody love you the way that you need to be loved."

Still going strong

Even to this day, Kevin makes her heart skip a beat and she told Redbook: "When he walks into a room…my heart gets a little fluttery and I think, 'Oh! He's so cute. He's so hot,'. That's literally the first thing I think…He's still a mystery to me."
