Their birthdays both fall on September 25th, with Michael turning 80 and Catherine turning 55.
That same day, the pair shared sweet tributes to each other on Instagram.
Sharing an old photo of them together, Catherine wrote on Instagram: “Happy Birthday to Michael and to me!! This was us on our birthday 25 years ago! I love you with all my heart ♥️, our friend @jeanpigozzi snapped us in New York!!”.
Meanwhile, Michael posted a black and white snap of his wife, alongside the caption: “To my birthday sister, I love you with all my heart! May your new year be the best! @catherinezetajones ❤️.”
Catherine later shared a photo of herself posing in her “birthday suit”, and wrote: “After over 25 years of sharing my birthday day with my husband, I am running out of gift ideas! This is gift option two, golf balls being option one… of course 🤣.”
Catherine is currently in Ireland to film scenes for season two of Netflix’s Wednesday, in which she plays Morticia Addams.
Production has been underway in Wicklow over the past few months, and many of the cast, including Jenna Ortega, have been spotted around Dublin.
Earlier this month, Jenna and her castmates attended Chappel Roan’s gig at the 3Olympia Theatre.
Back in May, Netflix announced a number of new cast members for season two – including Christopher Lloyd, Joanna Lumley and Thandiwe Newton.
Returning cast members Catherine Zeta-Jones, Luis Guzmán, Isaac Ordonez and Luyanda Unati Lewis-Nyawo will also become series regulars on the hit Netflix show.
Steve Buscemi, Billie Piper, Evie Templeton, Owen Painter and Noah Taylor will also return.
Showrunners Al Gough and Miles Millar said: “We are thrilled that the entire Addams family will be enrolling in Nevermore Academy this season along with a dream cast of icons and new faces.”
The decision to film in Ireland came after the logistical challenges that came with filming the first season in Romania.
The series has become the most successful English-language show on the streaming giant Netflix, and has garnered over 250 million views.
Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday in the two Addams Family films in the 1990s, is also on the show, but in a different role.
It was first revealed that Netflix would be filming the second season of Wednesday in Ireland last November.
Screen Ireland confirmed the news at the time, and wrote: “Delighted to welcome the second series of the hit show Wednesday to Ireland next year and to continue building Ireland’s relationship with Netflix and Amazon/MGM.”
The couple’s birthday lunch comes just weeks after Zeta-Jones’s risque Instagram post where she posed nude to celebrate her 55th birthday. The actress captioned the photo with: “In my birthday suit! After over 25 years of sharing my birthday day with my husband, I am running out of gift ideas! This is gift option two, golf balls being option one… of course.”
While many found the post amusing and sexy, some criticized it as inappropriate for a woman in her 50s. Zeta-Jones, however, has defended her choice, stating that she feels confident and comfortable in her own skin. “It’s my birthday, I’ll do what I want!” she said.
The couple has been married for over 20 years and have two children together, Dylan and Carys. They have been through many ups and downs in their relationship, including a separation in 2013, but they have always managed to work things out.
Their relationship is a testament to the fact that true love can withstand any storm. In a recent interview, Zeta-Jones spoke about the importance of communication and compromise in a long-lasting relationship. “It’s important to be able to talk to each other and to understand each other’s needs,” she said. “And it’s important to be able to compromise, especially when you’re both strong-willed people.”
The couple’s joint birthday celebration in Dublin was a reminder of their enduring love. It was a perfect way for them to celebrate their love for each other and for their shared birthday.
The couple enjoyed a private lunch at the restaurant. They were seen laughing and enjoying each other’s company. This is a testament to their enduring love and commitment to each other.
While they continue to work hard in their respective careers, they make time for each other and their family. It’s inspiring to see a couple who have been together for so long, still as happy and in love as ever.
Catherine Zeta-Jones is an award-winning actress who has starred in numerous films, including “Chicago,” “The Mask of Zorro,” and “Traffic.” Michael Douglas is also an award-winning actor and producer, best known for his roles in “Wall Street,” “Fatal Attraction,” and “Basic Instinct.” They are both respected and admired in Hollywood, and their longevity as a couple is something that many aspire to.
