Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas' son Dylan hits back after being falsely accused of being 'scumbag' who caused chaos at Beyonce concert

Daily Mail​17-07-2025
The son of Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas has been forced to defend himself after he was wrongly identified on TikTok as a man who'd abused a group of women at a Beyoncé concert in the US.
Dylan Michael Douglas, who is currently enjoying a holiday in his mother Catherine's hometown of Mumbles in Wales, shared a video on social media, where he told his followers he'd been the victim of false identity and a barrage of online vitriol.
A photo of a young man in a cowboy hat, who bears a striking resemblance to Dylan, is being circulated on TikTok, after he was said to have poured water on a group of black girls at a Beyoncé concert in Atlanta, Georgia.
But 24-year-old Dylan, insisted that the man in the photo, is not him.
He said: 'I'm sorry to come on here and do this but I've been put in a very awkward situation. This video that's circulating on TikTok about some person pouring a drink on somebody at the Cowboy Carter concert in Atlanta, Georgia, that wasn't me.
'I've never been to a Beyoncé concert, I'd love to go, maybe one day. Never been to Atlanta in the last five years. I'm in rainy Mumbles in the cold in Wales.'
Dylan, who is a budding actor, then filmed himself entering a traditional British pub, where Karaoke was underway in the background.
He said, 'I'm here at a bar with my Nanna, we got Karaoke, it's not nearly as good as Beyoncé, but whatever happened there, I hope you find the guy, it looks horrible but it wasn't me, I've had a lot of scary DMs and comments and other things that have been frightening and I just hope it all stops.'
Dylan, who has a younger sister Carys, 21 and a half brother, Cameron from his father's previous marriage to actress Diandra Luka, has an ever growing profile in the public eye.
Having graduated from Brown University in 2022, with a degree in political science, Dylan recently fronted a podcast called Young Americans for which he made a slew of TV and radio appearances to promote the show.
Soon the nepo baby, whose parents are both Oscar winning actors, will make his on screen acting debut in a psychological thriller, I Will Come to You, directed by Jacob Arden.
In a statement to Variety magazine, Dylan shared his excitement about the project. He said: 'I was drawn to this role because of its complexity and depth,' he said.
'I am looking forward to bringing this character to life and being a part of a project that pushes boundaries.'
Indeed Dylan's mother Catherine is one of Britain's most successful actresses, after she shot to fame in the 90s as the star of the much loved ITV drama, the Darling Buds of May.
She then became a Hollywood star after her screen stealing turn in the Mask of Zorro, opposite, Antonio Banderas and Anthony Hopkins.
Shortly after her success in Zoro she met Michael Douglas at the Deaville Film festival in France, they fell in love and married at a lavish wedding ceremony at the Plaza hotel in the year 2000.
Catherine then went on to star in the film Entrapment with Sean Connery and Chicago, for which she won an Oscar in 2002.
Last year, Catherine said she and Michael were selling their $12 million New York City homebecause their kids were 'leaving the nest.'
In a conversation with The Wall Street Journal, she said: 'When I purchased our Irvington home, I knew our family would share many happy times here, and we have!
'Now that both our son and daughter have left the nest, it seems like the right time to sell.'

Beloved ITV detective show slapped with 'trigger warning' for crime scenes in 'woke' move

ITV 's Inspector Morse has been slapped with a 'trigger warning' in a move that has been branded ' woke '. The popular series now features a pre-warning for crime scenes throughout the show, which seems to have caused a stir with people online. The streaming giant also advises there are 'satanic images' in one episode of the drama. It then has a parental lock on the episode, titled Day of the Devil. Inspector Morse first aired from 1987 to 2000, with a total of eight series. Other episodes also feature a warning over crime and violence. The popular series now features a pre-warning for crime scenes throughout the show, which seems to have caused a stir with people online Speaking about the update, Senior MP Sir Alec Shelbrooke slammed: 'This is another example of soft-touch Britain seeping into everything. 'We're just going to be laughed at as a country if things like this continue, because nobody's prepared for the real world where there are no.' Daily Mail has contacted ITV for comment. In the past, it has said about general alerts: 'Programming that contains politically sensitive or distressing themes, content, or language has carried appropriate warnings since our launch.' Just a few weeks ago, Netflix bosses axed an iconic moment from Pride and Prejudice to avoid 'objectifying men'. The unforgettable scene of Mr Darcy - played by Colin Firth - emerging from a lake was all the rage in 1995. But show bosses have confirmed it will not resurface in the forthcoming version of the rom-com. According to reports, many fans will be disappointed as the famous BBC scene is said to have 'got millions of women hot under the collar'. A source told The Sun: 'It is also credited for sparking subsequent moments of male objectification on screen - likes Aidan Turner's famous topless scything scene in Poldark.' It's claimed that Netflix bosses 'don't want a repeat'. The saucy scene soon became one of the most favourite TV scenes, however it didn't actually feature in Jane Austen's original 1813 story. Arguably the most iconic wet shirt ever worn sold at auction for £25,000 - double its estimated sale price.
