Zeta Jones, 44, congratulated Douglas on his career achievement and said, "I'm thrilled for him. It was wonderful - so well-deserved."
The couple, who wed in 2000, announced their separation in August but Douglas has continued to wear his wedding ring and has been downplaying the marriage trouble as a "temporary situation", reported Contactmusic.
Douglas, 69, remembered Zeta-Jones in his Emmy acceptance speech as he was honoured for his portrayal of Liberace in "Behind the Candelabra".
