ONCE-HOPEFUL MICHAEL DOUGLAS IS ABOUT TO RELUCTANTLY GIVE UP ON HIS MARRIAGE

Michael Douglas has been doing his best to patch up his failing marriage with Catherine Zeta-Jones. He never forgets to mention her and their children when he makes a speech, and talks about her affectionately in interviews. But Catherine has been conspicuously absent from all the red carpet events that Michael attends. Since he filmed “Behind the Candelabra” Michael has been bombarded with movie offers. Catherine, 45, has not. It’s starting to look like Michael’s optimism about saving their marriage is not paying off and Catherine is already set to file for divorce.(Above, Michael and Catherine, one year ago)

OOPS! MICHAEL DOUGLAS DIDN’T MEAN TO IMPLICATE HIS WIVES IN DISCUSSING DISEASE

Both Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas’s first wife Diandra are very agitated about the fact that Michael has implied that his throat cancer was caused by a sex disease. Both women want the world to know that they do NOT carry HPV, and Michael has started backtracking. However, it’s clear to us that Michael is referring back to his days as a raving sex-addict. Michael was a cheater who bedded almost every leading lady (are you reading this, Sharon Stone?) every attractive bit player, producer’s daughters, and his wife’s best friends. In his heyday, he was known for his trysts at every fancy hotel in LA and New York. He thinks it was those youthful indiscretions that led to his cancer, not so much the smoking and drinking, but who knows?

CATHERINE ZETA-JONES: THE TRUTH, JUST NOT THE WHOLE TRUTH

It’s undeniably a good thing that Catherine Zeta-Jones is calling attention to bi-polar disorder by admitting that she has checked into treatment centers more than once. She’s being released today after three weeks of health care. But she’s not being entirely open. Catherine says she checks into rehab for help in regulating her medication, but the problem is bigger than that. Bi-polar people frequently abuse alcohol and drugs to make themselves feel better or calmer. Her hospitalization in 2011 was at a detox center and Catherine is known to be a drinker and chain smoker. All things point to the fact that Catherine’s disorder causes her to abuse substances and THAT’S the real reason she checks into treatment centers. This is the part of the disorder that some people don’t like to talk about, but it’s very common and should be addressed.

THE MICHAEL DOUGLAS FAMILY HANGS OUT IN NEW YORK

No big deal – just a happy family taking a walk in New York. But it’s nice to see Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones looking relaxed and enjoying the company of their children, Dylan, 10, and Carys, 8. It’s also interesting to note how much little Carys is starting to look like her mom.

CATHERINE ZETA-JONES’ HOSPITALIZATION: THERE’S MORE TO THIS THAN MEETS THE EYE

Everyone’s talking about the news that Catherine Zeta Jones checked into a Connecticut hospital facility to deal with her “bipolar disorder.” Granted, she’s had a tough year living with her husband’s illness, but she’s not telling the whole story. Silver Hill Hospital specializes in treating psychiatric disorders combined with substance abuse. The National Enquirer broke this story (although few blogs credited them) in this week’s issue and they revealed that Catherine went right into the detox center of the hospital and checked out after five days. Self-medication might be her main problem. (Above, she accused a photographer of hitting her in the face in London in February)

CATHERINE ZETA-JONES HAD AN EVENTFUL DAY IN LONDON

Catherine Zeta-Jones looked deliriously happy when she met with Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace for an award ceremony. Later she and Michael Douglas had dinner at Gordon Ramsay’s restaurant at Claridge’s Hotel. All went well until they returned to their hotel and the doorway was jammed with people. In the middle of the crowd Catherine suddenly screamed that she had been punched! Hotel staffers rushed to her aid and she was seen rubbing her chin, but there seemed to be no lasting damage.

ELIZABETH TAYLOR AND RICHARD BURTON’S TUMULTUOUS LOVE STORY IS COMING TO THE BIG SCREEN

Another casting dilemma. The book “Furious Love: Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and the Marriage of the Century” is coming to the big screen and the hottest brunettes in Hollywood are hoping to play the legendary beauty Elizabeth Taylor. Top contenders are Angelina Jolie and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Both would have to put on a few pounds to emulate Liz’s bountiful curves. Top choices to play Richard Burton are Russell Crowe (who does have the animal magnetism,) Clive Owen (rough AND tender,) and Colin Farrell (charming Irish.) We were lucky to meet Richard at an awards show with his last wife and found him to be startlingly appealing and friendly. He WAS special.

At first glance it’s almost difficult to recognize Catherine Zeta-Jones. She’s looking slim and pretty – the rigors of Broadway where she’s appearing onstage in “A Little Night >Music “ is keeping her trim. She’s also probably worried about her husband Michael’s son Cameron and his drug charges.
