Michael Douglas is supported by Catherine Zeta-Jones and their children Dylan and Carys as he receives $1m 'Jewish Nobel Prize' in Israel

                               Supportive family: Michael Douglas's wife Catherine Zeta-Jones and children Dylan, 14, and Carys, 12, were by his side on Thursday as he received the Genesis Prize in Israel
Michael Douglas was presented with the $1million Genesis Prize - known as the 'Jewish Nobel Prize' - in Jerusalem, Israel on Thursday.
The actor's wife Catherine Zeta-Jones was right by his side as he received the prestigious honour, and despite the hurdles in their 14 year marriage, the couple looked stronger than ever.  
Before the 70-year-old received the prize from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he posed on the red carpet with Catherine and their two children, 14-year-old son Dylan and daughter Carys, 12. see photo.
        
       Proud moment: Douglas holds the Genesis Prize after receiving it from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (2-L) as Genesis Prize Foundation chairman Stan Polovets (L), Jewish Agency Chairman Natan Sharansky (2-R) and Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein (R) look on 
       Tears in his eyes: Michael grew emotional as he looked to his wife and children in the audience after being given his trophy
       'Life is good': Michael says his wife is 'wonderful' and that the family are having 'a fantastic time' in Jersualem 
         Faith in the family: Michael's father, 98-year-old actor Kirk Douglas (born Issur Danielovitch), was raised as an Orthodox Jew, and then rediscovered his faith after barely surviving a plane crash in 1991 and a stroke in 1996
            An honour: Catherine and Michael visited the residence of Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife Sara earlier in the day
