OK! magazine is appealing to the highest court in the land after three Court of Appeal judges ordered the magazine to pay back damages, costs and interest amounting to nearly £2 million to its rival, Hello!

The appeal judges had refused permission to take the case to the Law Lords but OK! and the Hollywood couple petitioned the House of Lords themselves and were successful.

OK! had a £1 million contract with the Douglases allowing the magazine’s exclusive coverage of their wedding in New York in November 2000.

Both OK! and the Hollywood couple took Hello! to court after it published the pictures it admitted were a "spoiler" aimed at limiting their rival’s exclusive coverage.

Zeta Jones told the 2003 High Court hearing she felt "devastated, shocked and appalled" when she realised unauthorised photographers had gatecrashed her high-security wedding at the Plaza Hotel.

The £14,600 damages awarded to Douglas and his wife after the High Court ruled Hello! had breached their rights of confidence were not challenged at the Court of Appeal.

Two children is enough - Aug 23, 2006
Michael Douglas has told Catherine Zeta-Jones that two children is enough. The brunette actress has always said she wants a big family but Douglas is happy with their children, son Dylan and daughter Carys, and thinks his wife would be just as happy focusing on her work.

He told the Night and Day magazine: "I think Catherine is resigned to that fact now. She’s gone back and forth on the subject, but when she gets back into work, I think she realises two’s enough and I say to her, ’Just think of your stepson as your third child.’"

Douglas, 61, has a 27-year-old son, Cameron, from his first marriage to Diandra Luker. Cameron is just nine years younger than Zeta-Jones, who is 36. The Oscar-winning actor also claims he has become a "Mr Mum" and is happy to stay at home and look after the children so his wife is able to go and make films.

Douglas is currently starring in ’You, Me and Dupree’ and ’The Sentinel’ which are both out this summer.
