It came after he confessed to his secret fling with Kathleen Turner. In his new memoir One Helluva Ride, the legendary actor admitted that the pair had an affair while making the 1984 classic Romancing the Stone.At the time, he was married to his first wife Diandra Luker and Turner was dating her eventual husband, real estate mogul Jay Weiss. Douglas shared his advice for the next generation at the Royal Festival Hall in London, stating: 'A lot of actors make the mistake early in their career of having a relationship with their leading lady. 'What they forget is that you can break up. They're having to perform these love scenes, and they hate each other.''We've all made that mistake, and I try to warn people,' he added. During filming for Romancing the Stone, rumors of their romance reached such a fever pitch that Luker traveled to the Mexico set of the film to confront Turner, who always denied the affair publicly.In his memoir, Douglas admitted to the dalliance, detailing how he and Turner became swept up in 'lust' on the set of the adventure film.'Kathleen was smart, funny and sexy, with a deep sultry voice that became her signature,' he wrote. 'I instantly liked her and we were immediately attracted to each other.'His home life, he said, was 'in a bad place. Diandra and I were both having extramarital affairs. The truth is that during the production of Romancing the Stone, Kathleen and I fell hard for each other and began a relationship.'
