Both born September 25 — both nearly lost each other to illness #MichaelDouglas #love #devotion

Michael Douglas was 53 in 1998 when he met Catherine Zeta-Jones at the Deauville Film Festival in France. He was the son of Kirk Douglas, an Oscar winner for producing "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." Divorced. One adult son, Cameron. She was 28, a Welsh actress on the rise after "The Mask of Zorro." They discovered they were both born on September 25.

He told her that night he wanted to father her children. She left the table.

She came back six months later.

They married on November 18, 2000, at the Plaza Hotel in New York. Two children followed. Dylan in 2000. Carys in 2003.

In August 2010, doctors diagnosed Michael with stage four oral cancer. Catherine was at every chemotherapy session for six months. He survived.

In April 2011, Catherine was diagnosed with bipolar II disorder. She entered treatment. Michael was at every release.

They briefly separated in 2013. They reconciled within a year.

25 years married. He is 80. She is 55.

Was she his wife — or the only birthday he never stopped sharing?
