Gigi Hadid to Amanda Seyfried: 8 celebrities who have embraced the farm life

Kevin Bacon bought the northwest Connecticut farm which he now shares with wife, Kyra Sedgwick, in 1983, purchasing the surrounding plots over the following years to add space and privacy. The pair are frequent costars in posts shared from the grounds, unpacking the many aspects of their farm life from the folksy Beyoncé covers performed for an audience of goats to updates on the ponies, alpacas, and horses who also call the property home. Bacon has said that the seller initially hesitated to grant him ownership over one particular structure on the property and later contractually required that the allegedly haunted edifice on the farm be destroyed within a month of purchase. “[The previous owner] said, ‘I can’t sell it to you because it’s haunted, and I’m afraid that you’ll get possessed and, you know, do some serious damage,’” Bacon told Rob Lowe on the latter’s podcast, Literally. The Footloose actor attempted to salvage a few treasures he had scouted inside the structure before it was torn down, but Sedgwick wasn’t having it. “I went up there and there were some beautiful old pine boards and a banister, and I said to Kyra, ‘We’ve gotta take those out.’ And she’s like, ‘No you’re not. You’re not putting those f—ing things in our house.’”
