Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones Plan to Renew Vows
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Weddings, Rumors,
Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones are planning to renew their wedding vows.
The couple - who have children Dylan, 13, and Carys, 10, together - separated last August after 14 years together but reconciled later in the year and now want to reaffirm their commitment to one another on their shared birthday in September.
"Michael and Catherine have been through a lot together over the last few months. They would love to renew their wedding vows and have thought about doing it on their shared birthday, September 25th," a source said.
The Hollywood couple have sought therapy to help get their marriage on track and now have a number of systems in place to help maintain their relationship. "Counselling has been a massive help for Catherine and Michael. They've been working on different ways to express feelings - including daily journals. They only show them to each other if things get bad - it's a way of giving them an outlet. They're going to take one month apart a year - they've realised how important it is to take a breather and allow themselves time to take stock," the source explained.

Michael Douglas Back with Catherine Zeta-Jones
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Rumors,
Michael Douglas is back with Catherine Zeta-Jones.
The 69-year-old actor was overheard taking a "very important" call from his wife who called to wish him luck during his red carpet appearance at the premiere of his latest film Last Vegas in New York City on Tuesday. According to sources, Michael - who was also spotted wearing his wedding ring - left reporters waiting as he spoke to Catherine.
"She called to wish him good luck and he said, 'Thanks honey.' The only reason she wasn't by his side is because she didn't want to take attention away from the film. It was Michael's night. She wanted to say hello and didn't realize he was on the carpet already," a source told the New York Daily News' Confidenti@l column.
The couple - who have two children Dylan, 13, and Carys, 10 - took a temporary "break" from their 13-year marriage in August but sources claim Michael openly revealed he had reconciled with Catherine, 44, at an after-party later that evening.

Michael Douglas has denied there is a "crisis" in his marriage to Catherine Zeta-Jones.
The 68-year-old actor, who is currently promoting his new film Behind the Candelabra, insisted that his marriage is "fine" and they are simply having a "temporary separation." Talking to the press at the premiere of his new film he said, "I have a crisis at home? No ... We, we are fine. My wife and I are, are fine."
The pair - who wed in 2000 in a lavish ceremony at Manhattan's Plaza Hotel in New York City - were last photographed together in April and are reportedly receiving counseling in an attempt to save their relationship. Catherine appears to want to do all she can to make things work and maintain her 13 year marriage. According to previous reports, the Red 2 star has admitted to friends she would do "everything in my power" to keep their family - which includes their children Dylan, 13, and Carys, 10 - together.
It has also been said the couple are seeking help through counseling, which has been described as the star's "last throw of the dice."
Michael Douglas Urged to Repair Marriage
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Break-ups, Divorce, Rumors,
Michael Douglas' father has urged his son to patch things up with Catherine Zeta-Jones.
The Hollywood couple called time on their relationship earlier this week in order to "evaluate their marriage," but Michael's dad Kirk Jones has begged the Behind The Candelabra star to save his romance before it's too late. "Kirk likes Catherine and has told Michael to sort his problems out. He's been with his wife Anne for almost 60 years and thinks marriage is about sticking with someone through good and bad," a source close to the family told The Sun.
Neither Michael nor Catherine have made any movements to file for divorce or legally separate and are said to be working through their differences. "Michael is still talking to Catherine and their family and friends are trying to help them work through their issues," a friend of the couple said.
The pair's 13-year marriage has been rocked by numerous stresses in the last three years with Michael being diagnosed with throat cancer in 2010 - which he beat - and Catherine suffering from bouts of bipolar II disorder, most recently in May this year.

Michael Douglas: Catherine Is Doing Great
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Features,
Michael Douglas claims Catherine Zeta-Jones has got her bipolar II disorder under control.
The Chicago actress checked herself into a clinic to monitor her ongoing battle with the condition - which can cause high and low mood swings, as well as depression - in April and now the Behind the Candelabra star admits his wife of 12 years is finally on the road to recovery.
"Sometimes you don't think you need any meds at all, and you forget your meds. Then all of a sudden, you get on a real ride. But she's fine. She's got it stabled out. She's doing great and I can't wait to see her," he said.
The 68-year-old actor - who has two children Dylan, 12, and 10-year-old Cary with Catherine - admits the mental health condition is unpredictable and can creep up on you at any time but insists the troublesome time has bought them closer together. "It's a slippery slope, this bipolar stuff," he added.
Catherine Zeta-Jones Is Sick of Talking About Bipolar Disorder
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Features,
Catherine Zeta-Jones is "sick" of people asking her about her bipolar disorder.
The 43-year-old actress - who has publicly spoken about her condition since being treated at a mental health clinic last April for depression following her husband Michael Douglas's cancer battle - insists she's not a victim of the disorder.
"You know what? I'm sick of talking about it because I never wanted to be the poster child for this. I never wanted this to come out publicly. It came out. I dealt with it in the best way I could and that was just saying that, 'Look, hey, I'm bipolar.' Everyone has things going on and we're doing the best we can. We can't jump from the rooftops shouting about, 'I have this, look at me, victim' - no. We all have issues in life and I'm really happy I have great friends, great support and that's all I can do," she told Good Morning America.

Michael Douglas Set to Finish Cancer Treatment
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies,
Michael Douglas has just one cancer treatment remaining.
The Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps star, who was diagnosed with a tumor in his throat in August, is currently undergoing eight weeks of chemotherapy and radiation, and will undergo his final session this week. His recovery is then expected to take a further six weeks, with the Oscar-winning actor then to be subjected to periodic check-ups.
“No further treatments are scheduled after this week. He’s really happy about it ending. He was determined not to have a feeding tube, and he didn’t have to have one,” his publicist, Allen Burry, said.
Although the 66-year-old actor is expected to make a full recovery from the illness, he may not make anymore films. Instead, Michael reportedly wants to spend as much time with his family, wife Catherine Zeta-Jones and their two children, Dylan, 10, and Carys, seven, as he can.
“This is a man in the middle of a gigantic fight, and he wants to conserve his energy and resources. If he beats this, he intends to focus on spending time with his family. He looks like he has aged 10 years in weeks,” a friend explained.

We now know that a tumor found in Michael Douglas’ throat tumor is far more serious than everyone had hoped. During an interview scheduled prior to his diagnosis, the two-time Academy Award winning actor revealed that he has Stage 4 cancer.
“The big thing you’re worried about is it spreading,” the 65-year-old told David Letterman. “I am head and neck. It hasn’t gone down. The expectations are good.”
Although doctors had failed to detect the tumor earlier this summer while evaluating Douglas for throat and ear pain, the Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps star has been told his chances of a recovery are good. “I would hate to say, but right now, it looks like it should be 80 percent, and with certain hospitals and everything, it does improve.”
