What to do with a man who celebrated his hundredth birthday? Of course, write memoirs! That's exactly what the 100-year-old Hollywood ancestor Kirk Douglas did. Recently, his book of memoirs, written in collaboration with 98-year-old wife Anne, was published.

Whatever, but Mr. Douglas is the last of their living actors, who had the honor of working in the "golden era of Hollywood." With his beloved wife and mother of his two sons, he lived for 63 years.

How to live up to a diamond wedding with a Hollywood heartthrob?

As it turned out, impressive and temperamental Kirk Douglas repeatedly got involved in intrigues on the side. And that's not all - his wife was aware of his love affairs.

Here's what Ms. Ann Bidens said about this:

"I was brought up like this: there must always be trust and honesty in marriage. I was never interested in the fact that my neighbor was being talked about by others. What I should have known, he always told me himself. You will not believe: he was always honest with me and so I knew about all his trips to the left, and it was a frivolous affair. I have my own view of these things. I love my husband and cherish my family, why did I have to break all this only because of my pride? Look, we love each other and we are together! ".

And Kirk Douglas himself very much appreciated his "half." She was able to save not only their family, but the life of the actor, moreover, twice:

"Once, my Ann persuaded me not to board the plane in which I was supposed to fly. Her intuition did not fail - the plane crashed. The second time, she was able to protect me from suicide after I survived the stroke. I'm still in love with her and my feelings have no limit. "

The couple met in the distant 1950, the wedding was played in 4 years. The wife gave Kirk two boys - Eric and Peter, she also brought up Joel and Michael, sons from a previous marriage with Diane Dill.
