Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick Victims in the Madoff Investment Scandal 

Kevin Bacon and his wife Kyra Sedgwick have come forward and announced that they too, are victims of Bernie Madoff’s $50-billion Ponzi scheme.

How much did they lose? Almost their entire fortune.

Kevin said the family is trying to remain upbeat even after almost losing everything.

“There are a lot of things I’m grateful for: my health, my family, my career, my family’s health,” Bacon told Life & Style magazine. “We’ll march on. We have to. There’s nothing you can do about it. You can’t change what happened. Things could be worse. You remember that, and you go on with your life.”

So what is Mr. Bacon doing? He is going back to work, of course. He wants to rebuild what he and his family lost.

Bacon is currently appearing in “Frost/Nixon,” and last summer shot “My One and Only” opposite Renee Zellweger.

“I don’t have anything lined up right now, but I need to work, for obvious reasons,” Bacon said.

I feel badly for Kevin and Kyra. They have been working hard for decades and basically had it all stolen from them.
