Catherine Zeta-Jones' Shoe Collection Gets Her in Trouble

Catherine Zeta-Jones often ends up getting into arguments with husband Michael Douglas over the size of her extraordinary shoe collection.

The 'Chicago' actress -- who has two children, seven-year-old Dylan and five-year-old Carys with Michael -- admits she is often subjected to lectures from the 63-year-old actor about the amount of footwear she has in her closet.

She says, "I have so many pairs of shoes - it's ridiculous. Michael often takes me into my closet and says, 'Could you explain to me why you have all these shoes?' It's because I travel a lot -- and I have certain outfits that only go with certain shoes. That's my excuse anyway! I love Christian Louboutins."

Catherine, 38, also revealed she couldn't imagine what life would be like without her husband.

She added to Britain's Cosmopolitan magazine, "I've been married to Michael for eight years. As he is older than me, he's been through the mill so can put up with me.

"Our careers are equally important - and as he's been so successful, he is happy to take a back seat sometimes.

"We're crazy about each other. I couldn't imagine waking up without him by my side."
