The star previously joked that she was unfazed by the fact that she is distantly related to husband Kevin Bacon.
Kyra recently addressed the revelation - which first came out in 2013 on the PBS show Finding Your Roots - while appearing on a panel to promote her new ABC drama Ten Days in the Valley.
When she was asked about the 2013 episode and how she feels about being a distant cousin to her husband, she took the revelation in her stride.

'I figured I was going to be related to Kevin Bacon — I mean, most white people are related, ultimately,' she said with a laugh.
'I wasn't surprised, honestly,' she continued. 'Frankly, I figured that was part the reason that they wanted to do both of us. I had to act surprised.'
The fact was delivered to the couple during the PBS show in which famous people get an insight into their family backgrounds.

Host Henry Louis Gates Jr, the Harvard professor of African-American history, revealed that DNA evidence shows Bacon, 59, and Sedwick, 51, to be ninth cousins once removed.
Footloose star Bacon has been married to Sedgwick since September 4, 1988 after they met on the set of the PBS version of Lanford Wilson's play Lemon Sky.
They have two children, Travis Sedgwick Bacon, 28, and Sosie Ruth Bacon, 25.
