Catherine Zeta-Jones makes bold statement about Michael Douglas' bombshell book packed full of scandal: 'Kinda kne

Catherine Zeta-Jones continues to support her husband, Michael Douglas, following the release of his new memoir, One Helluva Ride.

The actress took to Instagram on October 14 to celebrate the book becoming a New York Times bestseller. Alongside a photograph of the cover, Catherine penned: "Number One best seller!!!!! New York Times!!…..Like everywhere!!!! Like everything, everywhere all at once!!! Kinda knew you were Numero Uno!!! But, I guess the world agrees!!! Perfecto! Mi Amore congratulations!! @michaelkirkdouglas."

One Helluva Ride details a series of scandals and affairs throughout the producer's life. He also opened up about his brief separation from his wife, Catherine, in 2013. Michael and Catherine tied the knot back in November 2000, with a lavish ceremony in the Grand Ballroom of the Plaza Hotel in New York. Michael and Catherine briefly separated in August 2013, but reconciled a year later. The couple are parents to son Dylan and daughter Carys. Michael is also a father to his son Cameron from his previous marriage to Diandra Luker. 

Catherine's praise for the memoir comes after she revealed she's not read the entire book. "As much as I love my husband, when I'm tired at night, I have no intention of reading about him…at all," she said on the Today Show. "But everyone else should. The book is called One Helluva Ride, and I think everyone should hold onto their cowboy hats, because I think it is."

Michael revealed that he was dating other women when he first met Catherine. In his book, he explained: "Just after my marriage, I had been seeing five other women. They knew I was recently separated and in the process of getting a divorce. I made sure they all lived in different cities, which felt like a respectful way to be nonmonogamous. None of them asked for commitment."

The producer went on to end all five romances to solely pursue a relationship with his now-wife, Catherine.

Michael Douglas' affair

In his memoir, Michael admitted to having a relationship with his Romancing the Stone co-star Kathleen Turner, as well as his affair with his Basic Instinct co-star Jeanne Tripplehorn.

Michael revealed falling quickly for his young co-star, although at the time, he was still married to Diandra Luker. "The truth is, I fell very hard for Jeanne despite our nearly 20-year age difference," he wrote, going so far as to add: "In fact, I was ready to officially leave my wife for Jeanne. I was crazy about her." However, he then noted that it would've been "the worst thing" to actually divorce his wife of 15 years at that point.

"My relationship with Jeanne lasted through production, then we went our separate ways. But I will always think of her as an amazing actress and a truly terrific woman that I was very fortunate to spend time with," he penned.
