Catherine Zeta-Jones, Kourtney Kardashian, Gigi Hadid and other stars celebrate US Mother's Day – best photos

Sunday marks Mother's Day in the US, and Hollywood stars have been out in force on social media to celebrate the special day.

But not to worry! That hasn't stopped them from sharing their love for their mothers on Instagram – and there are some truly heart-warming photos and messages out there. Whatever side of the pond you're on, we could all use a little more love and connection right now, so keep scrolling to check out some of our favourite moments from this important day in the American calendar…
