Michael Douglas has recently revealed that he used the sleazy line "I'm going to be the father of your children" on Catherine Zeta-Jones to woo her, when they met for the first time.
The 'Behind the Candelabra' actor said that his first date with wife Zeta-Jones was at the Deauville Film Festival, where she was presenting her picture Zorro, the Daily Star reported.
He further added that later they met back for drinks and found out that they shared the same birth date, and just moments after that he offered to father her children.
However, the 'Side Effects' actress wasn't impressed, so she replied Douglas that everything she has read or heard about him was true and bid him goodnight.
Douglas and Zeta-Jones are back together following a separation in 2013.
