It's an odd thing when people seem surprised that a parent and their child actually look pretty similar. You as a child do, after all, come from them. So really it stands to reason that you'd bear at least a passing resemblance to one or both of your parents.
Yet every now and then, there's such a strong likeness between parent and child that we can't help but marvel. And it would seem that Catherine Zeta-Jones and her daughter, Carys Zeta Douglas, are very much in that camp.
Watch as Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas deliver a holiday message to their fans:Fans have been remarking on just how similar the pair look after Zeta-Jones took to Instagram to share a photo of her daughter along with the caption, "My girl, in the garden."
One fan wrote, "Stunning like mumma.." while another added, "Beautiful photo.. she is like a mini me of mom Catherine Zeta-Jones"
"At first glance I thought it was you! Beautiful!" A third commenter added.
Earlier this year, Catherine Zeta-Jones's husband Michael Douglas shared a moving tribute to his late father Kirk Douglas. He wrote on Instagram, "I miss him so much! Cherish your Dad while you have him".
Kirk Douglas passed away earlier this year on February 5, at the age of 103. Michael Douglas wrote a heartfelt statement at the time, saying of his father;
“To the world, he was a legend, an actor from the golden age of movies who lived well into his golden years, a humanitarian whose commitment to justice and the causes he believed in setting a standard for all of us to aspire to.
“But to me and my brothers Joel and Peter he was simply Dad, to Catherine, a wonderful father-in-law, to his grandchildren and great grandchild their loving grandfather, and to his wife Anne, a wonderful husband.”
Zeta-Jones also shared a message with her fans following Kirk Douglas' passing.
She wrote, "Michael joins me in thanking you all for your overwhelming love,kind words and prayers since the passing of my father in law Kirk. My whole family appreciated every word. Love to you all".
