Zeta-Jones ‘had a good cry’ when she heard Douglas’ tumour had gone

LONDON - Catherine Zeta-Jones broke down in tears of relief when she learned her husband Michael Douglas had beaten throat cancer.

Douglas revealed that the Welsh actress ‘had a good cry’ when she heard he had won his battle against the deadly disease, reports the Daily Mail.

“She had a good cry when she heard,” the 66-year-old actor told People mag.

“I can’t tell you I was jumping up and clicking my heels. For me, it will probably be two or three months before it will really sink in and feel good,” he added.

Zeta-Jones, however, said the news was an ‘incredible way’ to start to the New Year.

“We are so grateful for the wonderful care Michael has received and of course for this happy news,” she said.

The couple and their two children Dylan and Carys celebrated Douglas’ health at their favourite Manhattan restaurant last week, and the actor had his first alcoholic drink in over six months. (ANI)
