Catherine Zeta-Jones admits her children could become Hollywood stars in the future!

The iconic actress, who recently revealed the secret to a happy marriage with husband Michael Douglas, is now opening up about the future of her 20-year-old son Dylan, and 17-year-old daughter Carys.

Catherine explained during her latest interview that her kids are “extremely bright,” and although they are studying history and politics, they might be inclined to a different profession.

However the two stars are now acknowledging that “their passion is about acting as a craft and they‘ve done every theater camp.”

Catherine says Dylan and Carys “went off to summer camp every year, to theater camp with all the Broadway kids, and held their own very, very well, I have to say.“

She also confessed that because they both have seen first-hand the movie business, “they know what celebritydom is. They know the good, the bad, warts and all of that.”
