Zeta-Jones feared big day would be ruined

ONE of the greatest fears of Catherine Zeta Jones and her husband Michael Douglas was that the media could infiltrate their wedding and ruin the big day, a High Court judge was told yesterday.

From the outset of the planning of the €1.8 million ceremony at the Plaza Hotel in New York, an extraordinary security operation was devised to keep out unwanted visitors, Mr Justice Lindsay was told.

The couple wanted a few wedding photographs selected by themselves to appear in OK! magazine who had signed a €1.5 million deal for exclusive rights.
