Catherine Zeta Jones had bullet-proof windows installed at her Swansea mansion to fend off stray golf balls - and not potential attackers.
The multi-millionairess actress raised eyebrows when the high-security glass was put in at her £2m house.
At first it was thought she wanted to prevent a potential attack on her young children and Hollywood star husband Michael Douglas.
But the glass has actually been installed to prevent stray shots flying into her lounge from the golf club next door.
A member of the club said: "If you slice your shot your ball will fly towards their house so the windows are there as a safety measure."
Meanwhile, teacher Lynn Watkins says he won't be helping Catherine's kids learn Welsh at her home in Bermuda.
Lynn has flown to the island to teach at a local school but says he doesn't have time to tutor her kids in the Welsh language.
The Sun had reported Watkins would be giving Zeta Jones's children Welsh language lessons.
Is that the Douglas' new nanny?
Proof of God...
How I do love Free Republic...
I am happy living in a mundane existence. These people do not get any privacy. That does not even look like her *lol*
If the glass is only on the golf course side of the house they are probably telling the truth.

Maybe, but that guy she's with sure looks like President Bartlet.
Looks like Douglas lost a little weight.
I believe that's President Andrew Shepard.
He's a confessed "sex addict" living with one of the world's most beautiful women, so I think it's safe to assume he's getting plenty of exercise.
Probably. I'll bet she makes him do metrosexual stuff to look good next to her *lol*
Actresses and actors do not generally look like their screen personnas when they don't have makeup on. I used to date a soap-opera actress and saw her with and without stage makeup. Without, she was just an average-looking girl. With stage makeup, she looked really strange, but on video looked really great.
Hey, if shaving my chest hair was what it took to get busy with CZJ, I'd be on my way to the nearest beauty salon and you could call me a girly man all you liked.
I think Jones is beautiful and has a very exotic quality to her face, almost like Shania Twain. Stage makeup can cover up a multitude of facial sins though as you may know *lol*
hehe!
I believe it is common for the elderly to shrink.
hehehehe and he's no spring chicken
This is not Catherine Zeta Jones..so, who is it? (Maureen Dowd?)
