Catherine Zeta-Jones' daughter Carys Douglas shared an emotional tribute to grandfather Kirk Douglas and posted an unseen family photo
February 09, 2020 - 11:17 GMT Hanna Fillingham Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas' daughter Carys has paid a touching tribute to her late grandfather, Hollywood legend Kirk Douglas, who passed away on 6 February. The 16-year-old took to Instagram to share a never-before-seen family photo featuring herself as a little girl with her older brother Dylan, 18, Kirk, his wife Anne Buydens, and Michael, which was accompanied by a love heart emoji.
Catherine was one of the first people to comment on Cary's tribute, writing:"What beautiful words from your beautiful heart to your beloved Pappy. He loved you so very much. What an extraordinary angel you have surrounding you." The Chicago actress had also marked her respects on her own Instagram account, writing:"To my darling Kirk, I shall love you for the rest of my life. I miss you already. Sleep tight.
"Kirk's life was well-lived, and he leaves a legacy in film that will endure for generations to come, and a history as a renowned philanthropist who worked to aid the public and bring peace to the planet. Let me end with the words I told him on his last birthday and which will always remain true. Dad- I love you so much and I am so proud to be your son."
Kirk Douglas was a Hollywood heavyweight, working in cinema for over seven decades. He had 90 credits to his name - ranging from the 1940s to the 2000s. He is perhaps best-known for Spartacus, a Stanley Kubrick film which won four Oscars. Kirk himself was nominated for an Oscar three times; for Champion in 1949, The Bad and the Beautiful in 1852 and Lust for Life in 1956.
