Catherine Zeta-Jones signs into US hospital

OSCAR-WINNING star Catherine Zeta-Jones has signed herself into a medical centre for further treatment for bipolar II disorder.

The Welsh actress, 43, who is married to Michael Douglas, 68, previously received treatment for the condition, also known as manic depression, in 2011 at the same US mental-health facility.

It is believed she has signed in for a 30-day stint this time round so doctors can monitor her condition and medication.

Zeta-Jones won a best supporting role Oscar for her part in the 2002 film of the musical Chicago. She previously said of her condition: “There is no need to suffer silently and no shame in seeking help.”
