Fans of Catherine Zeta-Jones recently got a glimpse of the award-winning actress and her two children.
The Mask Of Zorro star, who snagged an Academy Award for her role in Chicago, is now a mother of two teenage children. Even though their father is legendary actor Michael Douglas, it seems that both children — 18-year-old Dylan and 15-year-old Carys — have inherited their good looks from the mother.
The actress was present at Wales’ National Day Gala on March 1 in New York. She was draped in an off-the-shoulder velvet dress, which featured a thigh-high slit and a romantic floral design around the center of the neckline. And while she certainly attracted a lot of attention, it was her 15-year-old daughter, Carys — who also wore an off-the-shoulder dress — who drove the internet into overdrive. As soon as pictures from the event were released, social media users could not help but compare both children to Catherine.
The 49-year-old actress received an honorary fellowship from The Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama at the event, reports Hollywood Life . And while that is another achievement for the Chicago star, raising two beautiful children — who seem to have inherited her grace and charm — is no mean feat either.
The internet simply couldn’t get enough of the three of them together, with users pointing out how Carys reminded them of a young Catherine from some two decades ago.
Perhaps some of the similarity is intentional, as Carys herself noted in an interview with Town and Country . The 15-year-old explained that much of her fashion inspiration came from her mother.
“Fashion has been so important in my life, because my mom is like a fashion icon to me. I’m always looking through her closet.”
Zeta-Jones was quick to return the compliment, saying that her 15-year-old knew how to balance the act.
“She’s modern but age-appropriate,” she said. “I’ve never had to turn to Carys and say, ‘I think that’s a little inappropriate.’ Once she said, ‘Mom, I really like this romper.’ I went, ‘Mmm, but don’t you think it’s cut a little too long? Shouldn’t it be shorter?’ She went, ‘Mom, you’re the only mother in the world that would tell a 15-year-old girl that the romper should be shorter.’”

It would certainly come as no surprise to see either child following their parents’ footsteps by pursuing a career in show business, and their frequent public appearances are pointing in that direction. In all likelihood, Catherine Zeta-Jones’ fans will not mind that one bit.
