Catherine Zeta-Jones is reportedly diving headfirst into a busy new phase of her career. However, her renewed professional energy is said to be leaving her husband, Michael Douglas, feeling isolated.

According to sources at RadarOnline.com, Catherine Zeta-Jones “got a lot on her plate right now and has no intention of giving up on her career or slowing down, far from it.” They added, “Catherine’s got at least two new projects coming up. She’s excited to be out schmoozing with people again.”
An insider said the 56-year-old holds a powerful position in Hollywood. They added, she also earns big paychecks; “The elephant in the room is Michael.”
The actor-producer, who has been married to the Academy Award winner since 2000, has publicly praised her achievements over the years, calling her a talented actress, devoted mother, and successful entrepreneur.
However, behind closed doors, the dynamic between the longtime couple seems to be shifting. The source stated, “He wouldn’t expect her to drop everything and sit by his side, but…When he decided to scale back on work, he thought there would be more date nights with Catherine and a chance to reconnect, but they are ships passing in the night.”
Further, tipsters claim Michael Douglas’ retirement has made him more dependent on Zeta-Jones, who remains focused on her own goals. The person added, “He doesn’t blame Catherine or resent her and wants her to be happy.” They said, “But the fact is the kids have grown and moved out and he’s alone in the house more or less and bored out of his mind.”
Furthermore, sources also claim that Zeta-Jones wants space from her husband, who she finds clingy since his retirement.
This comes after Michael Douglas reportedly got furious at Catherine Zeta-Jones for “flaunting their wealth.” A friend said the veteran actor told his wife to focus on family, not fortune.
