He welcomed his eldest son, Cameron Douglas, with his ex-wife, Diandra Luker.

Though he is indeed a nepo baby, Dylan Douglas is clearly blazing a trail of his own.

(Thankfully, Michael is now cancer free.)

And it sounds like things clicked for Dylan at the school.

“At home, I was alone, but at school I was far from lonely.

At Windward, I was free.

It was like the Mecca of dyslexics,” he said in the aforementioned speech.

“[Dylan and Carys Zeta Douglas would] love to join the business!

My son has done theater production since high school.

They’ve both been to drama camp,” Catherine Zeta-Jones toldParadein 2022.

Dylan hasn’t totally cannonballed into the industry just yet, but his interest has definitely been piqued.

“So it’s very cool.”

“They know about celebrity-dom,” Zeta-Jones said in Parade.

“So, they don’t want to be famous; they just want to be good actors.”

“I’m very, very proud,” Dylan toldEntertainment Tonightin 2023.

“I’ve been extremely blessed to be able to have both in my life.”

And Dylan sure seems to feel blessed, too.

They inspire me, they love me, they made me.

Happy Birthday Mommy and Daddy."

Dylan toldPage Sixin 2023 that Michael “can be embarrassing sometimes.”

He continued, “More in terms of what he says, rather than who he is.

[He’s a] bit out of touch, bad jokes for sure!”

“All I can say is that you are my whole world.

You are my leader, a role model and someone I aspire to be in every way.”

“I make them breakfast, and we talk about their day,” he toldThe Guardianin 2010.

“I like to know who their friends are.

I can see the tightness of the bond we feel and the security they have.

Despite this, their kids are as grounded as possible.

And it’s no secret he has made an impressive run of it.

The simple answer is he could not.

And one day, he discovered that Dylan had indeed watched one of his more explicit films.

and then he realized he was in a little bit of trouble.

“Hard work with good teachers.

Michael Douglas and family

As previously noted, the Zeta-Jones-Douglas family relocated to New York so Dylan could attend the academic institution.

After he graduated from Windward, he attended The Masters School in Upstate New York.

In a place that can be hard to read or write or even spell your last name.”

Michael Douglas also addressed his son’s schooling in an interview with The Guardian in 2010.

“He goes to a special school.

We’re old-fashioned parents, they’ve got British nannies, and we get nice compliments from people.

Our children make us proud.”

But that’s not to say the Zeta-Jones-Douglas clan has led a modest life.

Dylan Douglas' family has traveled all over the world and enjoyed various adventures together.

“My husband and I love being there for our kids even though they’re growing up.

“I didn’t know he was an actor.

It seems safe to say that this is something the father and son have bonded over.

He continued, “Later on, it was Stirling Moss, then Jackie Stewart.

The joy you have brought to this world thus far, is immeasurable.

I love you more than words can say.”

This is not the only time Zeta-Jones has opened up about her son.

By all accounts, the three siblings appear to be tight.

So thankful to have you in my life.

I love you.”

“She didn’t want to sugar-coat what I was going through.

I made mistakes and there were consequences,” he said.

In a separate chat withExtra, he gushed that they have “a fantastic relationship.”

In 2023, Michael Douglas shared a video on Instagram of his son playing the piano and singing.

Dylan sure has a knack for music, but he is not the only one in the family.

Of course, that role required some serious singing and dancing chops, and Zeta-Jones more than delivered.

The young man regularly posts about his various passions,including skydiving.

Rather, he appears to have lived a happy, full life.
