Catherine Zeta-Jones has used Instagram to beat some sneaky paparazzi photographers at their own game.
During a family holiday, the 47 year old actress and her husband fellow-actor Michael Douglas, 72, were snapped relaxing by the pool in their bathing suits. According to The Daily Mail, the photos were taken in Mexico.
Zeta-Jones responded to the sly photographs by posting two images of herself in a black bikini on Instagram, which had been taken by her husband.
“Pissed the paparazzi photographed my ass, thus sharing the photographs my husband took of my ass,” Zeta-Jones wrote in her caption.
“Always a better option for viewing.”
The actress finished her sassy caption with a winking face emoji.

The response to the post has been very supportive.
“Screw the paparazzi!” one fan commented. “I don’t blame you for being mad Catherine.”
“Either way you look wonderful,” another added.
Some fans were quick to compliment Douglas’ photography skills.
“By the way, your husband’s photography skills are way better than the paparazzi ones,” one said.
Undoubtedly, Zeta-Jones looks amazing in both the posed photos and the paparazzi shots — but good on her for standing up for her privacy.
