Jason Donovan hits the red carpet with lookalike son

Australian actor and singer Jason Donovan has made a rare public appearance with his two oldest children.

On Sunday, the former Neighbours star attended the Olivier Awards in London with his daughter Jemma, 18, and son Zac, 17.

Jason’s youngest daughter, 7-year-old Molly, stayed at home and watched her family on TV, as they attended the prestigious event that honours excellence in professional theatre in London.

Social media commentators were quick to point out the resemblance between Jason and his son Zac, as the teenager matched his famous father in a tuxedo with a bow tie.

During the awards show, the 49-year old singer took to the stage with others to perform Any Dream Will Do from Joseph And The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

Jason starred in the production in the 1990s and out of the many actors who have played Joseph in the production, he is one of the most well-known.

In an interview with The Sunday Post, Jason revealed that his kids sometimes attend his gigs.

“The older two view me as ‘that ’80s dude’ and although they sometimes come to gigs, it’s usually me going to them for what to listen to.

“But Molly loves watching me perform Too Many Broken Hearts and really enjoys dancing to that at the end of a gig,” he said.

Do you see the family resemblance between Jason and his son Zac?
