Actress Catherine Zeta Jones is accepting just a third of what she demanded for her prenuptial agreement with fiancé Michael Douglas.
The Hollywood couple, who share a 25 September birthday, have
been arguing over the contract for months; but the sexy Welsh
star, 31, has given in to the Basic Instinct star, accepting only $1.5 million for each year of their marriage, instead
of the $4.5 million she originally demanded.
A source says, "Catherine was angry when she first heard what the
prenuptial agreement contained and thought it was unfair. She had
meeting with her lawyers and they told her she should hold out for
more.
"But she was fed up with all the tit-for-tat rows and wanted it
settled so she could get on with the wedding plans."
And in the unusual contract 56-year-old Douglas will keep all
wedding presents worth over $18,000; but will give the mother of his 8-week-old son Dylan a cash lump sum before their
wedding next month, November 18, 2000 – Wenn.
