SPOILER ALERT: EXCLUSIVE GRADUATION FEVER HITS CELEBRITY FAMILY!

In a heartwarming display of love and support, the Douglas family celebrated a major milestone as Carys Douglas, 22, graduated from prestigious Brown University in Rhode Island. The Ivy League graduate's proud parents, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas, showered her with affection and praise on social media.

Carys' graduation day was a moment of pure joy for the entire family, with both parents beaming with pride as they shared intimate moments with their daughter. In one adorable photograph, Carys was seen tearfully embracing her mother, Catherine Zeta-Jones, 55, who captioned it: "Says it all really. Love you Carys." The sweet moment was reposted by Catherine, and the actress couldn't help but express her pride in her daughter's achievement.

The 22-year-old graduate took to Instagram on Tuesday to share more snaps from her big day, which featured a sweet shot with father Michael Douglas, 80

The proud parents also shared photos of themselves with their daughter on graduation day. In one picture, Michael Douglas, 80, was seen kissing both cheeks of his beaming daughter Carys, while Catherine Zeta-Jones posted a fun snap of Carys sat in the boot of their car, captioning it "graduate on board." The loving gestures left fans swooning, and they couldn't get enough of the heartwarming moments.

Carys' graduation day was not just about academic achievements; it was also about marking her transition to adulthood. As she graduated with a degree in Film and International Relations from Brown University, Carys is now one step closer to following in her parents' footsteps in the acting industry. The young graduate has already started making waves in Hollywood, with credits on several short films, including Shell and August.

Carys' journey into the world of show business began at a tender age, with both parents pushing her to pursue her passion for acting. In an exclusive interview last year, Catherine revealed that Carys and her brother Dylan, 24, were determined to become actors despite their father's warning that they would always be referred to as "the daughter/son of." Catherine quipped: "Their love of the craft is so strong, even when their brains are doing politics and history in school, their passion is acting."

However, it seems that neither Catherine nor Michael's words have deterred their determined daughter. With a degree from Brown University under her belt and several short films already under her belt, Carys is well on her way to proving herself in the cutthroat world of Hollywood.

The proud parents' love and support for their daughter were evident throughout graduation day, with both Catherine and Michael showering her with praise and affection. As they celebrated this milestone together as a family, it was clear that the Douglas family is more than just a talented acting dynasty – they are also a tight-knit and loving one.

Carys' graduation was not without its own set of celebrations, though. According to insiders close to the family, the proud parents marked their daughter's achievement with a carrot cake, symbolizing the sweetness and joy that this moment brought them.
