Douglas's children think he is a chef

Catherine Zeta-Jones has revealed that her children think their father Michael Douglas makes pancakes for a living.

Douglas has shunned high-profile acting roles in recent years to raise son Dylan, 7, and daughter Cerys, 5, in Bermuda.

Speaking to The Sun, Zeta-Jones explained that Dylan only recognises that his mother works in films.

She said: "Michael makes excellent pancakes. He's pretty good at waffles, too. Dylan was doing occupations at school recently and the teacher said, 'You have to go home and ask Mummy and Daddy what they do'.

"So we were trying to explain to Dylan that we make movies and he went to Michael, 'Hang on. Mama makes movies, you make pancakes!' So my two-time Oscar-winning husband with a career of 40 years looks at me and says, 'Oh, it's come to that!'"
