Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas’ son Dylan is a college grad.

“Graduation congratulations to my boy, my pride, my joy, Dylan,” Zeta-Jones gushed in an Instagram tribute to her 21-yer-old son on Sunday. “I am inexplicably proud of you and I love you beyond words.”

Dylan graduated from Brown University in Providence, RI.

Douglas, for his part, called himself “one proud dad” in an Instagram post of his own.

“Congratulations Dylan! Well done!,” the 77-year-old actor wrote.

The couple, who are also the parents of 19-year-old daughter Carys, documented their emotional farewell when Douglas moved into his Brown University dorm in September 2018.

“Let the lectures really begin! I love you Dylan,” Zeta-Jones, 52, told her eldest via Instagram at the time. “Good luck in the next exciting and enlightening chapter of your life.”

The Welsh star went on to give a glimpse of Dylan’s bedroom, including his Rolling Stones and Union Jack posters. She also showed Carys and her older brother sobbing while hugging goodbye.

Last year, Carys celebrated her own graduation with Dylan and their parents as she finished high school.

“Congratulations to Carys and the entire class of 2021!” Douglas captioned May 2021 family photos. “Your Mom and I are so proud of you! We love you so much and we are so excited for your future as the best is yet to come!”

In her own post, Zeta-Jones noted that Carys graduated “with honors for her International Baccalaureate,” concluding, “You rock and we love you.”

The “Mask of Zorro” star told Drew Barrymore that same month that Douglas has warned their children against following in his acting footsteps.

“If you are successful in business, it’s not an easy way in [for your kids]. In fact, one has to prove oneself more,” Zeta-Jones explained at the time. “Even with that deterrent, my kids are like, ‘No, sorry, we still want to do it.'”

Douglas and Zeta-Jones have been married since 2000. Douglas was previously married to Diandra Luker, with whom he shares 43-year-old son Cameron.
