Michael Douglas And Catherine Zeta Jones Back Together After Split?

Meanwhile, all looks to be well between Douglas and his wife of 14 years, Catherine Zeta-Jones. Back in November, it was reported that the couple was going through a $300 million dollar divorce, when in actuality they have been patching up their marriage and buying a new country house instead. The Hollywood couple reportedly even enjoyed a post-Christmas ski vacation in Denver with their two children, Carys and Dylan, back in December.

The National Enquirer's print edition in November claims that the couple has been having "massive fights" with Zeta-Jones even refusing to celebrate Douglas' recent 70th birthday.

Gossip Cop corrected the story though, reporting that the recently-reconciled couple is doing just fine, with a couple confirming that there is absolutely "no trouble" in their marriage.
