This is not the first glimpse Lorraine has shared of her father. In January, she posted a heartfelt image of the two together in a festive setting, with both of them smiling and surrounded by a crowded bookcase.

Both Lorraine and Ray are following their father’s footsteps in Hollywood. Ray has expressed interest in exploring writing and directing, acknowledging the challenges but also the potential for growth in the industry.

“I think that I have a unique perspective, and I’ve learned to embrace that rather than try to hide it,” he shared earlier this year. “I would love to [direct someday], but I don’t know if I’d want to do it alone. But yeah, I mean, why limit yourself?”
