    Jerry Seinfeld and his wife, Jessica Seinfeld, celebrated their son Shepard’s high school graduation in a sweet family photo.

    “Our youngest son Shepherd graduated from high school yesterday,” Jessica, 52, wrote on Instagram Tuesday.

    In the snap, Shepard, 18, wore a maroon graduation gown layered over a white button-down shirt, gray dress pants and a matching tie. He looked all grown up while holding a celebratory cigar.

    Also in attendance were the couple’s two older children: daughter Sascha, 23, and son Julian, 21.

    Jessica, who married the stand-up comedian in 1999, also shared that she gifted her son a flip phone in honor of the milestone “in hopes he will turn in his smartphone.”

    “Many of you have asked if this is his first phone – I wish!” she added. “If I knew then what I know now, I would’ve waited until age 14 to give him a smartphone (he got handed down an old one at age 12, for the bus ride to school in the Bronx).”

    The cookbook author dedicated two slides of her post to a “minimalist” phone her friend Lisa told her about called the Light Phone, which has a screen but “no addictive apps.”

    “Very curious about this -does anyone have one?” she asked.

    Jerry has been quite a fixture on the graduation scene in recent days.

    Jerry, who is Jewish, has been outspoken about his support for Israel following Hamas’ brutal Oct. 7, 2023, attack that killed more than 1,200 people and kidnapped another 252.

    The “Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee” host did not address the conflict in his speech and instead focused on sharing some words of wisdom.

    “Find something where you love the good parts and don’t mind the bad parts too much — the torture you’re comfortable with,” he joked. “This is the golden path to victory in life. Work. Exercise. Relationships. They all have a solid component of pure torture, and they are all 1,000 percent worth it.”
