The family did not spend much time in Hollywood when Carys was growing up, and she was only exposed to her parents' fame when she was six. Before then, she had an adorable idea of what her father did as a career.

Carys once confessed that she thought her father was a pancake maker, and she had no idea that he was an actor. When Michael and Catherine moved to Manhattan with their young daughter, she was struck by her family's reality.

The daughter of Catherine and Michael said that she hated coming to the big city and being exposed to paparazzi and fans, who had no respect for the family's personal space and safety. She said she had to get used to it and knew she needed a strong sense of self.

Carys' best friend said that while she had famous parents and was incredibly smart, she did not act like she was any better than anybody else. Her friend said:

“You would never know she has famous parents. It isn’t the kind of thing she talks about. She doesn’t carry herself that way.”

Carys credits her being humble to her parents. She mentioned that her parents ensured they reminded her how lucky she was to live the life she did and that not everyone was as fortunate as she.

Catherine said that the thing she is proudest of teaching her children is how to have good manners, as she believed there was nothing worse than a child who was more fortunate than others were not well-mannered.

While Catherine is close with her daughter, she said Carys knows how she is allowed to behave around her mother and knows what mannerisms she may and may not use. She also mentioned that her mother raised her the same way.
