Michael Douglas Ex-Wife Drama
Even though they have been divorced for a decade and he’s remarried to Catherine Zeta-Jones – Michael Douglas has found himself with ex-wife drama!
Diandra Douglas, who was married to the star for 23 years, is currently suing the actor for half his earnings from the upcoming ‘Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps,’ which opens Sept. 24. According to their original divorce settlement, Diandra is entitled to 50 percent of any earnings Michael receives from any movies he did — including residuals, merchandising and ancillary rights — during their 23-year marriage. Diandra’s lawyers feel that provision includes any “spinoffs” of Douglas’ movies.
Michael’s legal team is seeking to have the case dismissed because ‘because ‘Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps’ is a sequel, not a “spinoff.” “They’re not the same thing,”
Michael and Diandra Douglas had a very nasty split, with Diandra accusing Michael of sex and alcohol addiction, as well as numerous affairs and infidelities. She’s already made a rumoured $6.3 million since their split in residual earnings from Douglas’s projects. What do you think – do you think she should be entitled to a stake in the new ‘Wall Street’ movie, or has enough time passed?

notazetafan commented on Aug 25 10 at 2:16 pmShe is fully entitled. She gave up her youth, dreams, to prop Michael’s. He did not honor his duties, and was an absentee, skirtchasing father. How would that impact his son? Does he do the same thing for Catherine? He was an addict during Diandra’s days, and is now a reformed blue pill taker. Catherine is the other woman, who married him for his millions, got pregnant before the wedding, and has a super spin machine. Leave Diandra alone, she has suffered enough. With Michael’s health and mortality, it is interesting that the upstart Jones will become the “Keeping up with the Joneses.” Already the welsh Josnes posse is enjoying the highflying, highliving yacht life, globe trotting, shopping trips. As for mothering, Jonesy has tons of baby sitters and Michael for nanny. As a merry widow, she can really enjoy, while Diandra is vilified….

venetian commented on Sep 01 10 at 11:07 pmThis is love and marriage personified. (Especially when your ex is now married to one of the most desirable women on the planet decades younger than the ex wife. The guy is fucking dealing with throat cancer but that’s no problem for this vicious bitch hell bent on revenge. Let’s call her by the only name she deserves to be called : “Heartless money grubbing cunt”.
