Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones Celebrate Daughter Carys’ Graduation from Brown University: ‘It’s Only Just Begun’

Zeta-Jones shared a snap of herself and Douglas kissing their 22-year-old daughter to mark her graduation on Sunday, May 25

Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas are celebrating the graduation of their 22-year-old daughter Carys!

Sharing a photo of herself and her 80–year-old husband kissing Carys on either cheek, Zeta-Jones, 55, captioned the image, “The night before graduation!!!! We are both such proud parents right now!! It’s only just begun!!”

In the snap, the Brown University graduate was pouting while wearing a white full-length dress, while her dad opted for a navy suit and her mom a black two-piece suit.

The Mask of Zorro actress offered further insight into the celebrations via her Instagram stories, sharing snaps of a cake decorated with the frosted words, “Congratulations Graduation Class of 25,” and a picture of the Carys and her classmates on the steps of the prestigious Ivy League college which is located in Providence, Rhode Island.

The Welsh star also posted happy images of her daughter, emotionally embracing and posing with fellow graduates.

Carys, who obtained a degree in Film and International Relations from Brown, is one of two children shared by Douglas and Zeta-Jones, who wed in November 2000. In addition, they share a son, Dylan, 24, and Douglas is also father to Cameron, 46, whom he shares with his ex-wife Diandra Luker. The pair were married for 18 years before splitting in 1995 and finalizing their divorce in 2000.

Back in 2010, the actor opened up to AARP The Magazine about how having children had shifted his priorities. “My career was the most important thing in my life, followed by marriage and children. And it’s completely reversed now. I never anticipated starting a family and the joy of raising kids at my age,” he admitted.

In 2024, the Fatal Attraction star told U.K. newspaper The Telegraph about being mistaken for his children’s grandfather on parents’ day at the University.

“This is not grandfather’s day, this is parents’ day. I say, ‘I am a parent,’ ” he recalled someone telling him when he visited Brown. “That was a rough one.”

Carys and Dylan were both educated at the Ivy League college, with Dylan graduating in 2022.

Douglas also told The Telegraph how he and Zeta-Jones were fairing now that the children are growing up and leaving home. “Catherine and I have been together it’ll be 25 years this year. So it’s been a good ride and I’ve been very fortunate, happy with the choices that I’ve made and now am kind of really backing off and smelling the roses a little more, traveling more.”

He also sweetly called his two younger children “extraordinary beings” who have been “a joy” to raise.
