“COAL MINER’S DAUGHTER” STAR SISSY SPACEK IS HAPPY TO CELEBRATE HER 73RD BIRTHDAY WITH HER ONE AND ONLY HUSBAND OF 50 YEARS, JACK FISK!

Sissy Fisk, aged 73, celebrates 50 years of marriage with her husband, Jack Fisk. Embracing their tranquil farm existence, they harbor no regrets about exchanging city life for a simpler one.

Renowned singer and actress Sissy Spacek boasts numerous awards, yet her greatest achievement lies in her enduring marriage to Jack Fisk. Their bond remains unyielding despite her Hollywood success.

Their latest endeavor involves transforming their barn into a painting and recording studio. Spacek effuses admiration for her husband, acknowledging him as a remarkable artist from whom she continues to glean invaluable lessons.

The actress also credits her decision to move to a farm and the connection she shares with her husband for her massive success.

Expressing mutual understanding of each other’s passions and drives, she remarked on their willingness to support each other’s pursuits wholeheartedly.

Spacek expressed profound gratitude for the vibrancy of their relationship even as they enter their seventies, though she couldn’t help but marvel at how swiftly time had elapsed.

The actress also loves to let her artistic side flourish in her garden; she revealed that she had been adding peonies and woodbox trees to it and proudly said that her garden was beautiful because of her hard work.

Spacek truly loves her quiet life on the farm; one of her favorite things is sitting on her porch with her battery-operated fan and gazing at her surroundings.

While she enjoys her scenic home, Spacek also loves her husband’s sense of humor so much that “it’s so good it’s bad,” said the singer.

Approaching her 73rd birthday on Christmas Day, the actress was questioned about the evolution of her relationship with her daughters. She revealed a reversal of roles, where they now provide care for her.

Enumerating instances of their support, the actress cited moments such as navigating through airports, where her daughters now take the lead in guiding them to the gates.

Generally, her children cherish the upbringing they received and reciprocate by caring for her. Spacek shared that her eldest, Schuyler, inherited her exceptional singing talent, while her youngest follows in her father’s footsteps as a visual artist.

The decision to transition from city to farm life was pivotal for their family. Amid the peak of their fame, Spacek and her husband chose to sell their home in Topanga Canyon, California, opting for the tranquility of rural Virginia.

Settling on a farm in Virginia, they sought respite from the whirlwind of Hollywood. This choice wasn’t just for their own well-being; Spacek aimed to provide her daughters with a semblance of normalcy.

The actress recognized the allure and potential pitfalls of the “movie star life,” desiring a different, more serene existence for her family. Living amidst “normal people,” Spacek engages in everyday activities like grocery shopping and horse training alongside her husband.

The move to the farm proved beneficial for their children and marriage. It afforded them the opportunity to experience outdoor play and a grounded upbringing, fostering stronger familial bonds.

Moreover, Spacek prioritized shielding her children from media scrutiny, offering them a childhood free from excessive pressure and allowing room for mistakes.

The long-time couple met in 1972 when filming “Badlands,” she was starring in the film, and Fisk was building the set. The actress said she and her husband did not fully believe in the idea of marriage; in fact, after they tied the knot, they put $30 in their bank account because that was how much it cost to get a divorce.But that $30 never came to use because Spacek and Fisk only got stronger, and now the two do not even imagine without each other. “Now I think it would take something dramatic like death to end it,” said the actress.
