Michael Douglas has recently been spotted visiting the Island of Bermuda, one of his favorite places on earth, apparently to reflect on life and to make sure that all his affairs are in order. He has been busy with making the necessary updates to his will.
Reports on Radar Online have it that the 71-year-old actor was informed by his doctors that his cancer has recurred. This came quite a surprise to the veteran actor since he was originally diagnosed as cancer-free. The rep of Michael Douglas, however, debunked the rumors that his cancer recurred, and insisted that he was already free of the degenerative disease.
A source has spoken that the actor had been selling his assets and have been busy in making updates to his will. According to the source, the reason why he visited the Island of Bermuda was that the actor "might never again see the place where he wants his ashes scattered."
He described what Douglas was like during his visit to the beloved island. He said, "Michael's eyes welled up with tears as he revisited the paradise where his ancestors presided." The source added that Douglas has become more spiritual and that, "He realizes with all his success that family is everything and most important."
The recent report of Douglas not being cancer-free is sad news for Douglas and his wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones as they had celebrated in 2011 when he was declared by doctors as "tumor-free." The cancer-free news came a year after it was discovered in 2010 that the actor was suffering from stage 4 tongue cancer.
People, on the other hand, reported that Douglas, during the AARP's 15th Annual Movies for Grownups Awards in Beverly Hills, said that, "I'm cancer-free and five years out. And that normally means that everything's over. Health becomes a priority." He and his wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones, 46, were together at the event and were very sweet. Douglas even joked that the 25-year age gap between him and Catherine kept him younger.
