It was a special day for the Douglas family!

Catherine Zeta-Jones returned to her hometown of Swansea, Wales, on Wednesday to receive an honorary award as part of the city’s 50th birthday celebrations, according to the BBC.

By her side was her husband, actor Michael Douglas, and their 18-year-old son, Dylan — who wore a black suit and gray tie for the special ceremony. He was photographed proudly smiling as his mother accepted the honorary freedom of the city and county of Swansea.

The couple also share 16-year-old daughter Carys who was not in attendance.

“Yesterday, I was truly thrilled to receive the Freedom of the City of Swansea, my beloved hometown,” Zeta-Jones, 49, shared on Instagram. “Thank you Lord Mayor and the people of Swansea for this honor bestowed upon me.”

The day before the ceremony she left the glam at home and opted for a more sporty look, as she shared a sweet photo of herself with Michael, 74, and Dylan exploring her hometown with a walk along the coast.
