Michael Douglas admits that he has learned a lot during his 79 years. One of the most essential things is the secret to his long and happy marriage to his wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones. The couple has been married for nearly 25 years, and it all comes down to this one marital secret.
Most fans of The View know that these ladies do not get embarrassed very often. However, during Michael Douglas’s recent interview, he found a way to shock the women during their Q&A.
Michael Douglas admits that marrying his younger wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones, 54, has taught him a few things. The iconic actor has learned to accept defeat at his wife Catherine’s hands.
According to The Sun, Michael Douglas claims that he and Catherine Zeta-Jones love to do one thing together: play golf. He says they spend a lot of time indulging in their hobby and that his wife is quite skilled and often defeats him.

When View host Alyssa Farrah Griffin asked the Wall Street star what Catherine Zeta-Jones makes him do when he loses, Michael gave a quick and cheeky answer that had the women at the table covering their faces in shock.
So how does Michael Douglas pay off his golf losses to Catherine Zeta-Jones? He says when she beats him, she has him “Whip it out.” As the stunned hosts laughed, Michael said, “She says, ‘You’ve gotta whip it out.’ “Drop the trou and whip it out. That’s the secret to a marriage.”
All joking aside, Michael Douglas fesses up and says he doesn’t do that as much now that he is getting older. “I’m going to be 80 in September. So now I play off of ladies’ tees, too, so I don’t have to do that anymore.”
Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas share two children. They recently made a rare red carpet appearance in New York City with Catherine on his arm and son Dylan, 23, and daughter Carys, 21, at his side.
According to Us Magazine, the happy family stepped out together to show support during Michael’s new documentary premiere.
