In a sweet Instagram video, Michael Douglas shared for his 20th wedding anniversary in 2020, the “Fatal Attraction” actor shared the story of how the couple met. Douglas said he was first enamored with Catherine Zeta-Jones while watching her in “The Mask of Zorro” and when he found himself at a film festival in France the following month where they showed the movie, he asked around to see if she might be there. Zeta-Jones was there but was only staying for more night.
“So I have a drink with her and it was everything I hoped for, then she invited me for dinner with the company and I’m thinking, this is looking good,” said Douglas. Later on in the night, Douglas may have been a little too confident when he blurted out, “I’m gonna be the father of your children.” Zeta-Jones didn’t take kindly to the statement and responded, “I’ve heard a lot about you and I guess it’s all true, good night.”
Though the actress walked out and left France the next morning, they somehow got past the incident. “I thought I had completely blown it,” said Douglas, “but I am happy to say we made contact and the rest is history.”
