Zeta-Jones: Too Tired to Read Husband's Memoir
8 Oct
Summary
- Catherine Zeta-Jones has not read Michael Douglas' memoir due to exhaustion.
- Douglas recounts past relationships with Kathleen Turner and Jeanne Tripplehorn.
- He had received blessings from exes before publishing his book.

Catherine Zeta-Jones revealed on October 8, 2026, that she has not read her husband Michael Douglas' recently released memoir. Citing exhaustion from her work commitments, including filming "Wednesday" season 3 and other projects in Dublin, London, and Spain, Zeta-Jones expressed no immediate plans to delve into "One Helluva Ride."
She humorously noted that while she loves her husband, her evenings are for rest, not reading about him, encouraging others to experience the "ride" the book promises. The memoir, "One Helluva Ride," chronicles Douglas' decades in entertainment and his relationships with notable figures.
Douglas, 82, shares details of his past romances, including brief relationships with costars Kathleen Turner and Jeanne Tripplehorn during his first marriage to Diandra Luker. He wrote of his initial attraction to Turner while filming "Romancing the Stone" in 1984 and his strong feelings for Tripplehorn during the filming of "Basic Instinct" in 1992.
Prior to the book's publication, Douglas obtained permission from those he wrote about, emphasizing his intention was not to boast but to share significant relationships from his life.
