To maintain her glamorous Hollywood persona and ensure she wasn't without luxury attire at various banquets, she had to take on part-time jobs to earn extra income. Last year, the media even exposed that she was providing paid services to the married Hollywood actor John Markovic.
However, since both families were from the industry, and Michelle's husband was an obscure male actor, faring even worse than her, and John Markovic's wife an unknown female actress, both parties jointly declared to the public, with dignity, that the media reports were entirely false and that Michelle and John were only discussing a script. Both partners chose to trust their spouses.
Of course, the story after they publicly declared trust in each other was that John Markovic's wife filed for divorce, taking a portion of John's assets, while Michelle Pfeiffer's husband moved out of their residence right away, initiating a separation.
