Make Page Six a Preferred Source Michael Douglas is hoping his wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones, will be “very understanding” when she finishes reading his racy new memoir.
“She was a wee little girl in that part,” the “Wall Street” star, 82, told Page Six in an exclusive interview Wednesday, referring to the period of his life when he was involved with other women.
Douglas revealed that Zeta-Jones, 57, has yet to finish reading “One Helluva Ride.”
“She’s in the midst of it right now. She just got back. She was doing the third season of ‘Wednesday,'” Douglas explained.
However, the Oscar winner noted that he’s already “talked to her about it.”
Douglas, who has been married to Zeta-Jones since November 2000, insisted he has “no regrets” about being so candid in the book.
“I’m happy I got it out there,” he told us.
The actor doesn’t shy away from discussing his colorful past in the memoir, including his affairs with Kathleen Turner while filming “Romancing the Stone” and Jeanne Tripplehorn during “Basic Instinct.“

He also opens up about his struggles with cocaine and alcohol, which landed him in rehab, as well as his son Cameron’s addiction struggles, which resulted in a seven-year prison sentence.
Douglas told Page Six that cocaine use was “rampant” in Hollywood during the ’70s and ’80s.
“I didn’t have to [include it],” he said of his own drug use, “but I was just sharing my experience.”
“Having a little age behind me and looking back at it and realizing it was a really ridiculous drug and consumed a lot of people, my son included and a lot of others,” he continued, calling the revelation his “little beware tale.”
Despite the salacious revelations, Douglas had nothing but praise for Zeta-Jones, whom he called his “soul mate.”
“We’re in our 26th year and I enjoy her company very much,” he gushed. “She’s so talented and funny.”
The “Fatal Attraction” star, who shares son Dylan, 26, and daughter Carys, 23, with Zeta-Jones, added, “She’s a good lady, a good lady.”
