In modern life, and when you consider it hard enough, the idea of marriage really does appear quite off the wall – and Catherine appears to have thought about this notion herself.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been waking up to Mike for nearly 25 years. I love being married, but it’s a crazy thing when you really think about it. ‘Will you marry me?’ ‘Sure!'” the actress muses.<\/p>\n
Alongside their 25-year age gap relationship, Catherine and Michael have also dealt with a brief split following Michael’s stage IV throat cancer diagnosis, and Catherine revealing she had bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n
In the aftermath of Michael’s treatment, Catherine, then 41, had her spokesperson release a statement on her behalf. It said, “After dealing with the stress of the past year, Catherine made the decision to check into a mental health facility for a brief stay to treat her bipolar II disorder.”<\/p>\n

For their 24th anniversary, Catherine shared a series of wedding snaps to her Instagram account with the sweet caption, “Happy Anniversary darling Michael. Our love is like a hole in one\u2026. You have to see it to believe it. I love you.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
