Catherine Zeta-Jones insists owning 4 homes with Michael Douglas is ‘not excessive’: ‘It’s very comfortable’

Catherine Zeta-Jones doesn’t consider owning four homes “excessive.”

The actress, 55, spoke to the Sunday Times, which noted that she and her husband, Michael Douglas, own four properties — two homes in New York, one in Canada and one in Spain.

“I know it sounds very jet set, and I love to surround myself with beauty but it’s not excessive, it’s very comfortable,” Zeta-Jones said of their multiple properties.

The “Mask of Zorro” actress also said she wasn’t afraid to splurge on non-practical items.

“I go to all the vintage stores in Paris,” she shared. “I buy things that you are probably never going to wear, like a gorgeous cape, just great pieces. I am loving classic Yves Saint Laurent at the moment. I get excited about evening dresses.”

“For me, a pair of jeans is a pair of jeans. Spending £200 on a white T-shirt? Nah,” she continued. “But when it comes to couture, beautiful beading, the artistry … I love the theatre of fashion.” 

Zeta-Jones passed her love of fashion and for the finer things to her 22-year-old daughter, Carys.

“She loves my closet,” the mother of two told the outlet. “I have probably the biggest Fendi Baguette bag collection, and she’s just found more in my mum’s house. I’ve got everything from denim to pearl to sequins.”

A Fendi Baguette bag currently retails for up to $11,500.

“Carla Fendi used to give them to me all the time, right when they were hot potatoes,” she added.

Zeta-Jones also joked about her and Douglas, 80, keeping their Oscars in separate houses. She won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in 2003 for her role as Velma Kelly in “Chicago,” and Douglas won an Oscar for Best Actor for his role as Gordon Gekko in 1988’s “Wall Street.”

“Mine is in the country house in New York, Michael’s is in the apartment in New York,” she revealed. “We keep them apart, just in case, you know, there isn’t like hanky-panky going on there.”

The Welsh actress noted that she and her husband respect each other’s space. They’ve been married since November 2000 and share two kids together: Carys and their 25-year-old son, Dylan.

“We don’t listen to the crap that is written about us, that’s the main thing,” she said of their relationship. “And we respect our space, we’re independent spirits. We are very similar; we were born on the same day, 25 years apart.”

“We’re not afraid to be verbal, to express ourselves,” she continued. “I wear everything on my sleeve and so does he, which is good.”

Zeta-Jones addressed Douglas telling Variety last month that he’s “purposely” stepped away from his acting career and has no intentions of going back.

“Michael has definitely earned the chance to slow down,” Zeta-Jones commented, noting that he now plans to play a lot more golf. “But I never say never. He’s his father’s son and loves to work — let’s just say, ‘retirement’ is a flexible concept.”
