In the book, Douglas details how he and Turner kept their relationship secret during the filming of “Romancing the Stone,” despite being married to someone else at the time. Turner, while acknowledging past flirtations and tension between them, has repeatedly denied any affair over the years, most recently in 2023 by saying, "None of your business" when asked about it.

Story summary
Michael Douglas, in his upcoming memoir "One Helluva Ride," revealed a decades-long secret affair he had with co-star Kathleen Turner during the filming of Romancing the Stone in 1984. At that time, Douglas was married to Diandra Luker, but both were separated and involved in extramarital affairs; Turner was single but dating real estate mogul Jay Weiss. The two kept their romance hidden from everyone on set, including co-star Danny DeVito and director Robert Zemeckis. Their affair ended when Luker confronted Turner during a visit to the Mexican filming location with their son Cameron. Douglas and Turner maintained they only had on-screen chemistry for years afterward, even while working together again in later projects like "The Kominsky Method."
