The grandson of Kirk Douglas has shared a touching moment of the veteran actor with his great-granddaughter.

The 101-year-old was pictured smiling down at eight-month-old Lua Izzy, whose father is Cameron Douglas, while she reached out for his hand in the black-and-white snap.

Cameron, the son of Michael Douglas, captioned the image: “LOVE.”
