Catherine Zeta-Jones Quit Hollywood For Her Children
Catherine Zeta-Jones quit living in Hollywood for the sake of her children. The Welsh actress – who lives in Bermuda and New York with her actor husband Michael Douglas and their children, nine-year-old son Dylan and six-year-old-daughter Carys – was so frustrated with the constant paparazzi presence she gave up her glamorous Los Angeles lifestyle to focus on her family life.
“When you live in Los Angeles you can’t go anywhere without being critiqued – on your purse of the fact that you have gained weight or that you have got spots on your face.
“That’s not the life I want. Deciding to live in beautiful Bermuda was the healthiest thing Michael and I ever did. Now that I have kids, that’s what my life is about.”
Catherine is also not concerned about turning 40 this Thursday – the same day her husband turns 65 – because she doesn’t feel old.
“I feel much younger than I am. When you are 10 or 20, 40 looks really old. When I was nearing 30 that seemed like a major milestone.”
The couple are due to celebrate their milestone birthdays at an intimate party for family and close friends in NYC.

Good for them. Out of the spotlight. I am 13 years younger than my husband. So what. Thirty was the worst, 40 ehhh, 50 I love. Both my husband and I feel younger than we are.

Wait...did she leave Hollywood for her children or because she didn't want to be criticized by the papps? LOL Sounds more like the latter.

Good for them. LA just seems like a circus compared to the east coast.
Well, perhaps something is in the works for her as I believe that is Oliver Stone she is walking with?

She didn't stop acting, she just didn't want the paparazzi lifestyle. Good for them. :)
