Actor-musician Kevin Bacon says he finds it hard to pick gifts for his wife Kyra Sedgwick on special occasions.
The 55-year-old actor has yet to master the art of picking
out perfect presents for Sedgwick, who had to return a recent anniversary present, Contactmusic reported.
"I just got her something for our 25th anniversary - trust
me, there were a lot of diamonds in that thing - she took that back! She took it back along with something else that I had given her and got something that was bigger than the other two things," he said.
The 'Footloose' star also recalled the engagement ring he purchased for his wife in the late 1980s.
"I don't know anything about jewellery, so I went out and bought this ring that I thought was good. But about three months later, she wakes up in the middle of the night crying hysterically, and she's like, 'I have to talk to you... I don't like the ring'. So we took it back," Bacon said.
Bacon and Sedgwick have been married since 1988.
