Michael Douglas "Working Things Out" With Catherine Zeta-Jones Image Credit: Jason Merritt/Getty Images Only hours before thanking his estranged wife in his Emmys speech Sunday night, Michael Douglas was on the red carpet, telling the media how his marriage to Catherine Zeta-Jones might actually be on the mend. "We're working things out, talking, and we'll see how she goes," he told People magazine. Why Michael Douglas Mentioned His Imprisoned Son in Speech Douglas, 68, followed that up by making sure to include Zeta-Jones, 43, while accepting the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Miniseries or Movie, for HBO's Liberace bio-pic "Behind the Candelabra." "I want to thank my wife, Catherine, for her support," he added at the end of his speech. For a couple that announced at the end of August they were separated, Sunday was full of signs that the marriage might be getting back on track. And Douglas seemed to know all along his marriage would work out.
