DOUBLE Oscar-winner Michael Douglas says his “happier” marriage to Catherine Zeta-Jones is good for the couple’s children.
The 67-year-old Hollywood actor was speaking to friend Alec Baldwin in a new series of star interviews Baldwin is doing for US radio station WNYC.
During the frank talk, Douglas spoke of his heartbreak over his son Cameron, 32, who is serving five years in prison for drug dealing and possession.
He said he felt his son’s drug problems might be genetic, adding: “I think there’s a certain genetic part, and I think as far as drug addiction, your peer group plays a huge part.”
Douglas said his experience with his younger children from his second marriage to 42-year-old Welsh star Zeta-Jones, Dylan, 11, and Carys, seven, was very different.
He said this was partly because the world had changed, but also because he was in “a happier marriage”.
Douglas, whose 23-year marriage to first wife Diandra ended in 2000, added: “Secrets play a part in this, in the fact that whether it’s a bad marital relationship that you’re trying to keep from your children and the tension is there and you’re not really kind of up-front.
