Julia Roberts' VERY simple celebration for 23rd wedding anniversary despite being worth $250million
Julia Roberts is one of the richest movie stars on the planet, when it comes to her martial life with husband Danny Moder, it seems the pair like to keep things frugal over flashy. The Academy Award winner, 57, who has a reported net worth of $250 million, opted to celebrate their 23rd anniversary in a surprising and relatable way. With that amount of money, they could have dined at the most expensive restaurant in the world, Sublimotion in Ibiza, Spain, which offers a 20-course tasting menu priced at $2,380 per person. Or taken a private jet to anywhere around the world. But instead, the couple proved that no amount of money can buy happiness as they enjoyed a very simple-looking camping trip together. 'You + Me = 23,' the Erin Brockovich star wrote in the caption of her tent photo. Moder also shared a snap from their outdoor adventure. He captioned his post, '23 years is we are in my engraved SPOON! the fun continues… and a happy 4th to all�� The couple married in 2002 at the My Best Friend's Wedding actress' 82-acre ranch in Taos, New Mexico, on Independence Day 2002. They exchanged simple vows with no wedding party or celebrity guests. The couple share three kids, twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, 20, and Henry, 18. Julia has always prioritized her family over her career and said that becoming a celebrated actress was a 'dream come true,' but it wasn't her 'only dream come true. 'The life that I've built with my husband,' she told CBS Sunday Morning in 2022. 'The life that we've built with our children. And that's the best stuff, to come home at the end of the day triumphantly to them.' They say money can't buy happiness but Julia and Danny seem to have that in spades and have no need for the flashy display of wealth that other famous couples partake in Julia and Danny keep their relationship out of the public eye, but recently she gave partial credit to him for her youthful looks in her late 50s. 'Good genes, leading a life that is fulfilling, and I have said this—and I say it usually as kind of a joke—but I do believe in the love of a good man,' she told British Vogue in January. 'I believe that my husband loves me and cares for me in a way that makes me feel deeply, deeply happy.' Indeed, the Notting Hill actress said meeting Danny, 56, back in 2001 on the set of The Mexican was divine timing. 'The luckiest aspect of my work life/family life is that the success of my work life came earlier,' Julia explained. 'So by the time I had the success of my family life and had a husband and children who wanted to stay home, I had been working for 18 years. And so I felt that I had the luxury. I didn't have to pick one or the other,' she said. When asked what the key to their long lasting love is, Julia got a little cheeky in her reply. 'I always say that same thing and I'm sticking with it,' Julia told E! News in 2022. 'It's making out. Lots of making out.' 'The life that I've built with my husband,' she told CBS Sunday Morning in 2022. 'The life that we've built with our children. And that's the best stuff, to come home at the end of the day triumphantly to them.' The Leave the World Behind star marked their 21st anniversary two years ago with an Instagram pic of them smooching, captioning it, '#truelove #heckyeah #fromhereonout' 'He's my favorite person on the planet,' Roberts told People in 2020 of her husband. 'I love spending time with him… His point of view is really valuable to me.' She continued: 'Danny is very much a part of [our kids' routine] so there's only one little element gone – I like to think I'm an important element,' she said of being away from her children while filming. Her love for her husband and family has translated to greater happiness with herself as well. 'I just had my birthday and I don't think I had felt so happy on a birthday in quite a long while,' Roberts said. 'I think part of it is just the happy space that I'm lucky enough to occupy in the world, with my family and my friends – and I played Mahjong all day.'

Julia Roberts Posts Throwback Pic of Son Henry on His 18th Birthday
Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts celebrated her son Henry's milestone birthday on June 18th. Roberts took to Instagram to share a rare throwback photo of her youngest son. The Pretty Woman star, who typically keeps her family life private, offered fans a glimpse into Henry's childhood with the nostalgic post. Roberts shares Henry with husband Danny Moder, along with twins Hazel and Phinneus, who are now 20. Julia Roberts celebrated her son Henry's 18th birthday with the world with a touching tribute. Roberts shared a childhood picture of Henry on Instagram, captioning it, 'In the blink of a joyful eye this beacon of a boy is 18. I love you Henry.' In the Instagram photo, Henry appears in a green hoodie. His golden blonde hair peeks from the hood—a shade reminiscent of Roberts' iconic hair color from her early Hollywood films. Almost a month ago, fans got another rare glimpse into Roberts' personal life when the star's husband wished her a happy Mother's Day. In the Instagram tribute, Roberts and her three kids, Henry, Hazel, and Phinnaeus, posed with bright smiles amid nature. Henry was born on June 18, 2007, three years after Roberts and Moder tied the knot. Before that, the celebrity pair welcomed twins Hazel and Phinnaeus in November 2004. The Eat Pray Love actress has shared in the past why she mostly keeps her kids' private lives away from public view. In a chat with USA Today in 2013, the Golden Globe winner shared, 'We try to protect our kids. We just want to have our family life and not have that intruded upon.' A decade later, Roberts also dished on her principles of parenting in an interview with Today. Roberts revealed how she tries to limit the usage of phones in her home. She noted, 'So for us, we just had sort of simple rules where we had a charging station where everyone's phones go when you get home. There's no phones at the table, certainly.' The Runaway Bride star added that she 'parents' them in the same way even after they have become adults. Originally reported by Arpita Adhya on ComingSoon.

For $30 Million You Could Live In Julia Roberts' Former Kaua‘i Oceanfront Estate
Limahuli Ocean Estate borrows its name—and its sweeping vistas—from the lush Limahuli Valley. Walk down a road in Kaua'i and you might just get a sore neck. This street, aptly named "End of the Road," commands you to look up—at emerald cliffs, mist-laced peaks and the drama of Mt. Makana. Keep going north—past waterfalls, taro fields and single-lane bridges—and you'll reach Hā'ena. Beyond that? The Kalalau Trail, gateway to the Nā Pali Coast and described by at least one YouTuber as "the most dangerous hike in the world." And just before the trail begins, sitting amongst rainforest and reef: Limahuli Ocean Estate. Sheer ridgelines supply all the drama, while a soft, green slope down to the water kisses the waves. What sets this property apart? For starters, 400 linear feet of private beachfront. Surf breaks just steps away. More than 8 acres of gently undulating land, punctuated by freshwater springs and near-daily rainbows. 'You really do see rainbows all the time,' says listing agent Neal Norman of Hawai'i Life. Paradise in its purest sense. And then there's the celebrity cachet. Records show the estate was once home to actress Julia Roberts and her husband, cinematographer Danny Moder. During their ownership, they enlisted acclaimed architects Walker Warner for a full-scale renovation. Every sightline in the main living pavilion floats toward the surf. The updates were comprehensive: hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, upgraded landscaping. There's also a 490-square-foot sunken infinity pool with a wooden deck, perfectly positioned for gazing into the landscape. Sustainability features include Tesla batteries, solar panels and a whole-property water-filtration system. Inside, the design stays true to its rustic, coastal soul. White walls, natural wood tones and exposed beams lend warmth without pretense. The single-story, low-profile home houses three bedrooms—nothing oversized or ostentatious. Here, scale belongs to the mountain. Tropical foliage weaves a natural privacy screen, though solitude is innate—the closest neighbor sits well out of sight. A detached guest cottage adds a private bonus room, while one of the main house's guest bedrooms now serves as a sleek, air-conditioned gym. According to Norman, though, air conditioning might be more of a luxury than a necessity. Kaua'i boasts "perfect weather," with temperatures rarely climbing above 90 or dipping below 60 degrees. Throughout, indoor-outdoor living sets the relaxed island tone. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows blur the lines, framing views that stretch endlessly. 'You're surrounded by Tahiti-style cliffs, green and steep, with waterfalls pouring down,' adds Norman. It would be churlish not to let that in. Transom windows travel to the roof's apex, letting the house keep its sleek, low-slung profile while flooding the interior with sun and sightlines. Despite the seclusion, the estate sits just 15 minutes from Hanalei, a postcard of a town dotted with surf shops, food trucks and local charm. Life here blends retreat with adventure. And there's room to grow. Limahuli spans three contiguous parcels, offering potential for expansion. 'You could build two more homes,' Norman notes. 'Or leave it as is and enjoy the openness. That's what makes it a legacy property.' The island's North Shore has long attracted famous names. Mark Zuckerberg, Owen Wilson, Oprah Winfrey, Jeff Bezos have all planted roots nearby. You'd even recognize the island in a few of box-office hits—the Jurassic Park franchise, Raiders of the Lost Ark and the 2011 George Clooney vehicle, The Descendants, to name a few. But the draw isn't the starry spotlight. It's the stillness. 400 uninterrupted feet of beach grant the estate true barefoot access to the Pacific. In Hawaiian tradition, the land—'āina—is considered to be a living being. Sacred. Capable of healing. And in places like Limahuli, that belief feels less like folklore and more like fact. Here, the cliffs are ancestral. The ocean, restorative. The daily rainbows? A reminder that nature, when honored, offers both refuge and renewal.

Julia Roberts in rare picture with all three of her grown-up kids
They grow up so fast. Julia Roberts' cinematographer husband, Danny Moder, gave a rare look at their three children in his Mother's Day tribute to the famous actress. Moder, 56, shared a picture on Sunday of Roberts, 57, surrounded by her twins Phinnaeus and Hazel, 20, and son Henry, 17, reports the New York Post. 'Mothers make the coolest stuff. Love these guys,' Moder captioned the post. Fans commented on the tribute and gushed over Roberts' happy family. 'They are all grown up! Wow time flies,' one person wrote. 'Lovely photo, beautiful family,' someone else said. A third person commented, 'Bunch of cuties! Yeah — mums do make the coolest stuff!' 'What a beautiful family! Mother at the centre of course, surrounded by love. As it should be,' a different fan wrote. Roberts met her husband on the set of The Mexican in 2000 and they got married two years later. The couple welcomed their twins in 2004 and their younger son in 2007. The 'Pretty Woman' actress has kept her kids out of the spotlight, though she did make an exception for her twins' 19th birthday in 2023. She shared a black-and-white throwback Polaroid of herself with Phinnaeus and Hazel at the time, writing in her caption, 'There are no words for the joy, the fun, the wild rumpus of life together.' The following month, Roberts spoke to Extra about why she posted her twins on social media. 'It is something to be celebrated, and I know Instagram is a place where people like to share happy things and I love them so much and I really did just happen to come upon this cute picture and I thought … That allows me to share something as a proud parent of them without infringing on their privacy at all,' she explained at the time. Roberts is also private about her relationship with Moder, occasionally celebrating their wedding anniversaries on Instagram. In 2022, Roberts told CBS Sunday Morning that being a successful actor is 'not my only dream come true.' 'The life that I've built with my husband. The life that we've built with our children,' she gushed. 'And that's the best stuff, to come home at the end of the day triumphantly to them.' In a different 2022 interview with the New York Times, Roberts said she's chosen to prioritise her family over her career. 'I just take it all as it comes,' she shared. 'I try to be super present and not plan, and I don't have any upcoming acting jobs. Getting back to a routine feels really good.' Roberts added: 'And I love being at home, I love being a mum.'
