Catherine Zeta-Jones Husband Michael Douglas’ Throat Cancer Scandal Almost Caused Divorce – Apologies To ‘Chicago’ Star!

After having being married for almost 15 years, Catherine Zeta-Jones' husband Michael Douglas has been in the middle of a number of controversies, and the most recent and notorious one saw him saying that his throat cancer diagnosis had come from oral s*x, a comment that almost ended his marriage to the "Chicago" Oscar winner.

In 2013, things were looking grim for both Catherine Zeta-Jones and husband Michael Douglas, as he underwent treatment for his cancer and she struggled with her then-recent diagnosis of bipolar II disorder, and they even broke things off for a while - but as their 15th anniversary approaches, the couple is tighter than they've ever been.

In a recent interview with UK's Event Magazine, Catherine Zeta-Jones' husband Michael Douglas discussed his marriage struggles in 2013, particularly after he publicly disclosed he had been diagnosed with throat cancer and said he'd gotten the illness over "oral s*x," a comment he now regrets as it caused embarrassment to both his wife and her family.

Other major issues in his life have included that son Cameron was recently convicted to prison over drug dealing.

According to Yahoo! Celebrity, Catherine Zeta-Jones' husband Michael Douglas is currently promoting his upcoming film, the Marvel superhero "Ant-Man" where he plays Hank Pym opposite Paul Rudd, and it's given him a chance to discuss how things are with his marriage right now - and what works and doesn't.

The Independent reports that Catherine Zeta-Jones' husband Michael Douglas recently stepped up to talk about his career and marriage, as the two-time Oscar winner discussed previous struggles in his personal life, including the decades-old rumor that he suffers from s*x addiction, which he has often said is a complete fabrication.

The 71 year-old actor, son of film legend Kirk Douglas, has won two Oscars in his career: once for producing "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and once for starring in Oliver Stone's "Wall Street."

Catherine Zeta-Jones and husband Michael Douglas will be celebrating their 15th anniversary soon - and still going quite strong after having met on the set of Steven Soderbergh's "Traffic"!
