It’s hard to believe that  Catherine Zeta-Jones  and  Michael Douglas  already have an 18-year-old daughter. The famous couple did not hold back when it came to wishing their grown up daughter, Carys, a happy birthday on social media.

On Tuesday, the 51-year-old took to Instagram to post an album of photos that showed Carys as a young baby and as the young woman that she is. The actress’ post was captioned, “Happy 18th Birthday Carys Zeta! You are everything, and everything is you. Thank you for the joy you bring me. At 5 am this morning, you texted me to thank me, for giving birth to you. That’s the kind of woman you are. Kind. Your wisdom out numbers your years. You beauty is deep and your heart is big enough to love and envelop the world, your sense of humor......very important.... is insurmountable. I could go on. Your Japanese needs some work, but that’s doable. I love you angel. Mama.”

The last photo in the post was a texting conversation between Catherine and Carys. The 18-year-old wrote, “Thank you for giving birth to me!” Her mother responded, “Oh, giving birth to you was my proudest moment! Wait….Oscar?....No….Definitely YOU!”

Michael also gushed about their daughter on his Instagram page. The 76-year-old actor posted an older photo of him and a young Carys captioned, “Honey this is your Dad, wishing you the best 18th birthday any young lady could possibly have. You know how much I love you, how proud I am of you, and the joy I have watching you grow into the young lady you are turning out to be! Happy birthday Carys! I love you! Dad.”

Carys commented on her dad’s photo writing, “Thank you my dadda!! I love you and thank you for everything you do. You are my biggest inspiration!” Celebs also flooded the actor’s picture.
