#MeToo allegation­s devastated Catherine Zeta-Jones

-

Catherine Zeta-Jones and her children were “profoundly devastated” when her husband

Michael Douglas was accused of sexual harassment.

In January, Susan Braudy, a former employee of Douglas’ accused the Wall Street actor of having inappropri­ate, sexuallych­arged conversati­ons with her and masturbati­ng in front of her in 1989. Before the piece was published, the 74-year-old issued a pre-emptive denial, calling the accusation­s “a complete lie.”

In a new interview with

The Sunday Times magazine, his wife Catherine admitted she was put in a “really hard position” as she wanted to support her husband but was also a firm believer in the #MeToo movement against sexual harassment.
