The Ant-Man star unofficially wed his ex-girlfriend Brenda Vaccaro
, they’d crossed paths after Michael had asked his father, Kirk Douglas, to cast her in the 1971 drama,– and had fallen for her, thus asking Kirk to make the introduction.
During their five-year relationship, the Hollywood couple were often spotted attending star-studded events, including the 47th and 48th Academy Awards. By 1973, Michael and Brenda were living together in Beverly Hills, but the actress wasn’t ready to be married.“This was the 1970s. No one got married,” Brenda told
in 2017. “Then we decided to have a ‘hippie wedding’ at my agent’s house. We said vows that we loved each other and would be together forever.“Finally, it came time to say that we were doing it for real. I said, ‘Yes,’ then wound up backing out of it. I really messed that one up.” Brenda admitted that her decision to end her relationship with Michael came with her newfound feelings for actor Don Stroud – a decision that she has since come to regret.“I fell madly in love with someone else, [actor] Don Stroud. There was this really strong connection,” she said.
“My dear friend Robert Shaw, who was making Jaws, told me what I was doing was rash and I was making a mistake — that momentary pleasures like the one with Don would lead to lasting regrets if I broke up with Michael. I regret all of it. Everything was different back then.”Following their split, Brenda went on to find love with her husband of 37 years, Guy Hector, while Michael is happily married to Welsh actress, Catherine Zeta-Jones.© Getty Imagesin 2010.
