Henry is the youngest of Roberts’ three children with her husband, cinematographer Daniel Moder. The couple, who tied the knot in 2002, also share 19-year-old twins, Hazel and Phinnaeus. Roberts and Moder met on the set of the film The Mexican in 2000 and have been known to keep their family life relatively private, rarely sharing photos of their children on social media.
In a previous interview with The Sun in 2019, Roberts discussed the challenges of raising children in the modern digital age. “It’s interesting, trying to raise kids in this day, because it’s all so new – the pressures, the resources, having the world in your hand like that,” she said. Roberts emphasized her efforts to limit her children’s use of social media, questioning its necessity for them at a young age.
Balancing Career and Family Life
Despite her illustrious acting career, Roberts has always prioritized her family. In a 2022 interview with Sunday Morning, she reflected on her life beyond the screen: “It’s just never consumed me, being an actor. It is my dream come true. But it is not my only dream come true.” She expressed that her family life with Moder and their children is equally fulfilling, describing it as “the best stuff” to come home to at the end of the day.
Recent and Upcoming Projects
In addition to her family life, Roberts continues to make waves in Hollywood. Last year, she starred in Netflix’s Leave the World Behind, an adaptation of Rumaan Alam’s apocalyptic thriller. More recently, she was announced as part of the cast for After the Hunt, a new project directed by Luca Guadagnino, known for Challengers and Call Me By Your Name.
Julia Roberts’ heartwarming birthday tribute to her son Henry not only highlights her devotion as a mother but also offers a rare glimpse into her cherished family moments.
