Julia Roberts is well-known all over the world thanks to her roles in “Pretty Woman” and “Notting Hill” among other films. She received the record-breaking five times she was named People magazine’s World’s Most Beautiful Woman award, in addition to being an amazing performer and producer with a dazzling smile. She also enjoys being a proud member of a lovely family of five. After dating for almost two years and falling in love while working together on the set of “The Mexican,” Roberts married her cinematographer spouse, Daniel Moder, in 2002. (Thanks to Us Weekly)
Daughter Hazel Patricia Moder and son Phinnaeus “Finn” Walter Moder are fraternal twins, and the couple also has a son named Henry Daniel Moder. With the exception of the sporadic appearances on their father’s Instagram page, the Moder children have rather secluded lives in contrast to the other famous Roberts, such as Julia’s niece and “Unfabulous” star Emma Roberts. However, we do have some knowledge on the Roberts-Moder family.
Julia Roberts thinks her kids look more like her husband
Roberts herself disputes the notion that Julia Roberts and Daniel Moder’s children have inherited their mother’s angular, eye-catching features. The “Runaway Bride” actress was frank about her family and children in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, revealing that she and her husband frequently engage in amicable discussions about who of the kids they most resemble. She confessed with her signature smile, “I always assume they all look like me, and then Danny gets home from work and I go, ‘Oh, you, that’s who they look like.
Photos of the family do support the assertion. Hazel, though, has her mother’s large, cheery smile. While Hazel is blonde, her identical twin, Finn, is a self-assured redhead who goes by the name “ranga” on Instagram. Henry’s hair appears to have taken on his mother’s light brown natural tone.
Hazel Moder made her red carpet debut in 2021
Hazel Moder made an appearance at the Cannes Film Festival in France in 2021. She made her red carpet debut at the age of 16 when she accompanied her father to support his movie, “Flag Day.” The blonde chose a chic ponytail and was spotted walking around town in chunky black Mary Jane shoes and a yellow lace button-up shirt dress.
Roberts called Hazel “a one-of-a-kind” girl in an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, revealing that she was quite composed before entering the venue. Just before the premiere, she was open about the mother-daughter FaceTime. I thought she didn’t really appear prepared despite her ponytail. Roberts inquired as to if her daughter had any eyeliner planned because she knew how fancy the yearly event was, to which Hazel said, “I didn’t pack eyeliner, Mom, what are you talking about?” Roberts went on to say, “It’s just so innocent and sweet, really. She is only with her father. There is nothing else to it.”
Julia Roberts has archived some of her wardrobe for daughter Hazel Moder
though Julia Roberts’ lovely daughter may or may not make many public appearances in the future, we can be certain that the adolescent will carry on her stunning sense of style. 2017 saw Roberts divulge this in an interview with People “My husband refers to this small area of my home as the heritage collection. There are times when I think, “I can’t get rid of [this], what about Hazel?””
What’s intriguing is that this “collection” includes the renowned dress she wore to accept the Best Actress Oscar for “Erin Brockovich” in 2001. Hazel is given safe custody of the lovely vintage Valentino column gown with white piping and a sheer black train. The dress that served as a major design influence for Roberts’ niece Emma’s Oscars outfit in 2017 can be found under her bed, she revealed.
Hazel and Finn reportedly went off to college in 2022
Despite not being “fortunate enough to have a college experience,” Julia Roberts admitted to Extra that she was thrilled to send her twins go to school. Apparently, Hazel and Finn began their college studies at the University of California, Berkeley in the fall of 2022, according to a source who spoke to Closer Weekly. The insider claims that one of the twins—which one, exactly—is studying fine arts while the other is majoring in computer and information sciences.
The insider claimed that now that the twins are in college, Roberts can concentrate more on her work and the parts she is most interested in. The source said, “Acting is her profession, and she’ll continue it for as long as she can.” “She desires to perform in movies with strong narratives. Although dramas have recently had the best roles, Julia claims she would be open to going back to her origins in romantic comedies.”
We can only hope that Roberts will appear in more films in the future. Roberts and George Clooney reunited on the big screen in “Ticket To Paradise” in October 2022.
Julia Roberts and Daniel Moder moved to San Francisco for their kids
The fact that Julia Roberts and Daniel Moder are cautious about safeguarding their kids’ privacy and assisting them in leading as regular a life as they can despite their mother’s popularity is not exactly news. According to Closer Weekly, Roberts and her husband moved from Malibu, California, to a $8.3 million mansion in San Francisco’s Presidio Heights district in 2020. Although they didn’t buy it for that purpose, the San Francisco Gate Bridge is visible from the San Francisco five-bedroom, four and a half bathroom mansion built in 1907.
Roberts “loves Malibu, but she wanted her children, who are growing up so fast, to experience a place with a new energy and feel,” a close friend of the family reportedly told the publication. “Her kids are not movie star kids in San Francisco, where no one cares who your mom is,” the person stated. The informant also disclosed that Daniel Moder has grown weary of Hollywood even if he adores their beachside lifestyle.
The Moder kids lead active and outdoorsy lives
Daniel Moder’s Instagram page will quickly convince you that the Moder children share their father’s passion for the outdoors, which includes the beach. In addition to participating in a range of outdoor activities like soccer, golf, surfing, skating, and more, Hazel, Finn, and Henry are all pretty outdoorsy. In June 2022, Daniel Moder posted a picture of Henry holding a skateboard along with the message, “Happy Birthday, Henry “This youngster is willing to do anything and amazed that he is my son. Stoked. 15 today. adore you” Other images on Moder’s Instagram depict a variety of outdoor activities, including Finn dirt biking, the boys playing croquet, and the boys practicing soccer on the ice.
The Moder children and their parents also visit their 32-acre ranch in Taos, New Mexico, where Roberts said she feels most like herself. The Moder family also resides in California. Roberts told Oprah Winfrey, “I often say you can’t be in a bad mood here. “You can’t be stupid in a negative way,” she said. “I don’t know if it’s New Mexico or just the mountains.”
Julia Roberts doesn’t think that her kids will ever have a true sense of their mother’s fame
She recalled a humorous instance from their early years when they first became aware of her prominence. “They asked, “You’re famous? ” And I remarked, “I believe a large number of people may have seen the movie I’m in or may know who I am.”” An hour later, her children were curious about the extent of their mother’s celebrity. They questioned, “Are you more well-known than Taylor Swift?”
Of course, now that they are older and have access to the internet, Hazel, Finn, and Henry are probably much more aware of their mother’s fame.
Hazel attended her first Women’s March in Washington with her mother
Given her relationship to Martin Luther King Jr.—the Civil Rights leader and his wife, Coretta Scott King, paid for Julia Roberts’ birth—it’s not entirely surprising that she has been an activist since birth.
She is a fervent feminist who frequently uses her platforms to denounce injustice. Roberts mentioned that her daughter Hazel Moder has also inherited this legacy in an interview with Oprah Winfrey for Harper’s Bazaar.
Roberts reported that Hazel was stunned to learn that Donald Trump had won the 2016 presidential election. She also said that she was inspired to accompany Hazel to her first Women’s March in order to “find a way to make her feel like she could still have a voice.” Roberts went on to explain, “Even if someone else was now president, I wanted her to feel like she still had a place in the world and that she could still hold onto her convictions. It was incredibly empowering for me to have her serve as my sort of guide as I entered this area of protesting and taking part in being a citizen of this nation.”
At the age of 12, Hazel Moder donated her hair to make wigs for cancer patients
Julia Roberts is no stranger to giving back and sharing her success, from advocating for clean water to helping victims of domestic violence. Hazel Moder appears to have inherited her mother’s love for philanthropy in addition to her beautiful clothing and cheerful smile.
In her interview with InStyle, Roberts was open and reminisced about the early years of her children. She talked about the time her daughter Hazel gave her hair to Wigs For Kids, a company that creates wigs for kids with cancer, and expressed her admiration for Hazel’s bravery. For a girl who is about to be 13 and has long, cascading blonde hair that frequently draws attention, Roberts said, “That’s a big deal.” “But she’s so noble and courageous. She interprets things differently.”
The Moder kids use social media and consume content under the strict eyes of their parents
The Moder children are not regularly seen on their father’s Instagram feeds, and they don’t engage in any public social media activity. However, Hazel, Finn, and Henry each have private Instagram profiles where their father follows them and occasionally shouts them out.
Julia Roberts claimed to The Sun in 2019 that filming “Ben Is Black” had made her a tighter mom, particularly when it comes to controlling the media her children see. Roberts went into length about her parenting techniques, particularly with regard to the perilous realm of social media and the internet. She clarified that she had blocked Hazel and Finn from using social media at the time. She also discussed the necessity of exercising caution when watching television and ingesting content while young children are present.
She explained that she was cautious about turning on the TV because she has three young children. “Raising kids in this day and age is interesting because everything is so fresh — the demands, the resources, having the world in your fingertips like that,”
