Catherine and Michael, who tied the knot back in 2000, have always been open about how close they are to their kids. Michael, in particular, has spoken about how his children have influenced his passion for acting. At the Golden Globes in 2019, he shared, "The fact that all of them want to be actors and are good actors makes it all the more enjoyable.

Shielding Their Kids from the Spotlight
Catherine, who starred in the iconic film Chicago, revealed to ET that they've worked hard to keep their children away from the chaos of Hollywood. "We've kind of shielded them away, but they're incredibly mature for their tender years," she said. "They get it, and that's just a thing [where] I think that I just got lucky. ... They've kinda been removed from the crazy world of Hollywood or even the crazy world of Manhattan. The teenagers here in Manhattan, there's a maturity that comes too quick I think."
Following in Legendary Footsteps
Michael, the son of legendary actor Kirk Douglas, understands the allure of the acting world and the desire to follow in family footsteps. "Right now, all three of my kids want to be actors — Cameron, Dylan, and Carys, and my niece, Kelsey," he explained. "So that's four of the next dynasty. Dad and I got about 120 years and about 130 movies, so it will be more and we just got a grandchild — little granddaughter Lua." Whether or not the kids pursue acting, one thing is clear: Catherine and Michael will always be their biggest supporters.
