“I was very young when I started out. Whenever I had to audition, I was never in an environment like that,” explained Zeta-Jones.

“And when I moved to Hollywood, it wasn’t long before I met my future husband, so everyone knew that I was with Michael Douglas.”

She continued, “I don’t know whether it [being with Michael] was beneficial, but perhaps it meant I wasn’t in environments where I would have been vulnerable otherwise.”

Sharing her support for victims of abuse in Hollywood, Zeta-Jones added, “I certainly understand how hard it is to speak up and how brave these women have been.”
