Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones share kiss as they mark impressive anniversary

Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones have been pictured sharing a kiss as they celebrated their latest wedding anniversary.

Calling her husband 'her sweetheart', the welsh actress shared a candid photo of her kissing the US actor and producer, 78, on Instagram to celebrate the occasion.

The 53-year-old is wearing a summer hat in the post while Michael is shirtless.

Alongside the post Catherine wrote: "22 years and one day! It’s in the fine details.. love you sweetheart. Happy Anniversary."

The Hollywood stars have been married since 2000 having first met at the Deauville Film Festival in France back in August 1998.

A loved-up Michael also took to his social media to wish his wife a happy anniversary by sharing two photos of them laughing together and kissing each other on their wedding day held at the Plaza hotel in New York.

He captioned the post on Instagram: "Happy Anniversary to my darling Catherine! I love you so much @catherinezetajones #22years."

Friends and fans of the couple took to the comments to offer their congratulations on the milestone, with Zeta-Jones simply replying to Douglas in the comments by saying "Love you".

One fan wrote: "My favorite couple ever! I love you so much! Congratulations!"

While another said: "Congratulations both we were honoured to spend your special day ,with you both thank you x"

A third commented: "Congrats. Happy 22 Anniversary to a Beautiful Couple. May you Enjoy Your Day Together love you both."

A fourth took to the comments to say: "Happy Anniversary and many more happy blessed years together!"

The actors were first introduced by mutual friends Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith.

Catherine told Larry King in 2001: "I had been told Michael Douglas wanted to meet me. I was a little nervous because I didn’t quite know what he wanted to meet me about."

It was instantly love at first sight for American actor Michael, with him telling The Jonathon Ross Show in 2016:

"I said to her after about half an hour [of hanging out], 'You know, I’m going to be the father of your children'.

"It sounded good, and she said, 'You know, I’ve heard a lot about you and I’ve seen a lot about you, and I think it’s time I say goodnight.'"

Michael proposed to the actress in December 1999 at his home in Aspen, France, on New Year's Eve.

The couple tied the knot a year later in a lavish ceremony at the Plaza Hotel in New York City.

The nuptials commenced following the Disclosure actor's divorce from film producer Diandra Luker, which was finalised earlier that year.

The couple's wedding, which reportedly cost $1.5million (£1.24m) was attended by famous faces including Jennifer Aniston, Whoopi Goldberg and Tom Hanks.
