Los Angeles: Actor Michael Douglas thinks he "really lucked out" marrying actress Catherine Zeta-Jones.

The 70-year-old “spoiled” his wife, with whom he has children Dylan, 14, and Carys, 12, on Mother's Day on Sunday because she deserved to be treated well, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Douglas told TV show “Extra”: “(And I gave her) lots of love and affection. I lucked out, I really lucked out."

Zeta-Jones said: “It was one of the best days I've had in many, many years, we were all together, I got spoiled rotten, I must be doing something right."

While they are happy in their marriage, the couple who split briefly in 2013 and later reconciled, have mixed opinions on working together.

The 45-year-old actress said: “If he wasn't my husband, I'd like to work with Michael Douglas, it's true, he's a great actor."

However, Douglas said: “I would like to work with you any way I can get you, honey. It's a good question, I've been wondering myself... You're not playing hard to get now, it's too late.”
