Catherine Zeta-Jones Punched by Photographer After Dinner at Buckhingham Palace

Los Angeles, Feb 26 – A good morning never comes with a good after-noon; this is true for Catherine Zeta-Jones. Her day began with a knighting ceremony at the Buckhingham Palace but Hollywood beauty Catherine Zeta Jones was allegedly punched in the face by a photographer by the end of it.

Catherine Zeta-Jones and her 66-year-old husband Michael Douglas entangled in the brawl as they coming back to their hotel after a dinner to celebrate the honour of Commander of the Order of the British Empire, granted on her by Prince Charles earlier that day, reported by media.

The mess started when the stars came out of their car at their hotel and had to struggle their way through a crowd of snappers waiting at the doorway to their residence.

In video footage of the brawl, Zeta-Jones can be heard shouting, "How dare you punch me!" at an overzealous photographer as they enter the hotel lobby.

"I want a police officer right now. He punched me! The guy coming in here, he punched me!" the actress is heard as saying in the footage.

Douglas rushed to his wife's defence by grabbing the photographer and pushing him as hotel security rushed to separate the two men.
