Michael Douglas Reveals Risque Wager with Wife Catherine Zeta-Jones Over Golf Games

Hey you guys! Emily here with another one of your favorite golf scoops. So let me just spill - I caught the latest View and OH MY GOODNESS do I have some tea for you.

In a shocking revelation during his appearance on ABC's The View, Hollywood icon Michael Douglas divulged an intimate detail about his marriage to actress Catherine Zeta-Jones.

While promoting his new documentary America's Burning, Douglas was asked by co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin about his competitive relationship with Zeta-Jones on the golf course. "What does she make you do when you lose to her?", Griffin inquired playfully.

Douglas responded with a smile, "Whip it out. She says, 'You've gotta whip it out'. "Drop the trou and whip it out."

The admission stunned the all-female panel of The View hosts. Griffin laughed and clasped her hands together in surprise, while Sara Haines quickly covered her mouth. Even seasoned comedian Whoopi Goldberg seemed at a loss for words on how to respond to Douglas' frank comment.

Only weeks away from his 80th birthday in September, the Academy Award winner added that he now uses the ladies' tees to improve his odds against Zeta-Jones.

"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," he quipped, referring to his wife's risque forfeit.

Representatives for Catherine Zeta-Jones have not responded to requests for comment on her husband's claim. If true, this would reveal another racy chapter in the long-running romance between the Hollywood power couple, known for their age-defying passion.

Douglas and Zeta-Jones, now 54, have been married for over 20 years after meeting at a film festival. They're admired in the entertainment industry for maintaining a successful partnership despite their 25-year age difference. But it seems their connection stays passionate thanks to friendly competition - and unconventional stakes - on the golf course.

Only time will tell if Zeta-Jones addresses her husband's playful exhibitionist boast. But one thing is for certain - Michael Douglas left the usually unflappable View panel lost for words with his risqué golf revelation about life with his leading lady.
