Sherri Shepherd's son is all grown up!

The comedian and actor-turned-talk show host shared a photo of her son Jeffrey in a Sunday Instagram post, dressed up in a suit with a white button-down shirt, blue bowtie and matching blue pocket square, and couldn't resist gushing about her 18-year-old.

"'Mom why are you crying? It's just my prom!' Watching my son put a corsage on his date's wrist and helping her into the car… whew I think I did alright! #promnight," Shepherd wrote in an accompanying caption.
