Michael Douglas counts his blessings
EVERY cloud has a silver lining, says Michael Douglas.
The actor was diagnosed with throat cancer in August and says that he has learned a lot from the experience. “Cancer has shown me what family is,” insists the 66-year-old who is married to actress Catherine Zeta-Jones, 41, with whom he has two children Dylan and Carys.
“It showed me a love that I never knew really existed.”
And the Hollywood heavyweight believes it has also allowed him to deal better with his divorce settlement battle with ex-wife Diandra Douglas after she unsuccessfully attempted to claim half of his earnings from Wall Street 2.
“I try not to dwell on a bad marriage. I learned a saying, ‘I wish I got out earlier.’” Touché.
