Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones scout Rome's newest luxury penthouse
Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones were seen together in Rome this week, visiting a lavish penthouse. The couple, married for 25 years, has spent decades building a global property portfolio—and this latest addition sits in one of the city’s most exclusive locations. The pair first met at the Deauville Film Festival in France in 1998. Two years later, they married at New York’s Plaza Hotel. Over time, they expanded their family with two children: son Dylan, now 25, and daughter Carys, 23.
Their property empire spans New York, Bermuda, Spain, and Canada. The latest purchase is a multi-million-pound penthouse in Rome, bought by Zeta-Jones for Douglas. Located in a historic palazzo near Piazza Navona, it offers sweeping views towards St. Peter’s Basilica. Zeta-Jones has overseen extensive renovations, filling the space with high-end artwork. The visit comes as Douglas films *White Lies* in the city, co-starring Josh Hartnett.
The penthouse adds to their long list of luxury homes. Douglas continues filming in Rome, while Zeta-Jones’s design choices reflect their shared taste for grandeur. Their latest property investment underscores a quarter-century of partnership—both personal and financial.
