plus Lopez’s fraternal twins Emme and Max Muñiz, 15, from her marriage to Marc Anthony.

  • Julia Roberts recently shared a rare photo with her husband to celebrate their 21st wedding anniversary.
  • She tied the knot with Daniel Moder after breaking up with her famous ex, who felt bothered by her fame.
  • Roberts and Moder welcomed three kids but kept them away from the limelight while raising them.

If you grew up watching Hollywood films in the 1990s, you would know how Julia Roberts rose to fame after playing the role of Vivian Ward in the 1990 romcom, “Pretty Woman.” She made it to the Oscar nomination for her stellar performance as the lead character in the film.

In 2000, Roberts gave another mindblowing performance in the film “Erin Brockovich,” which was based on a true story. Not only did she make it to the Oscar nominations this time, but she also won the award.

While enjoying a successful career being one of the best actresses of her time, Roberts dated many men and even tied the knot with Lyle Lovett in 1993, but things did not work out between the couple, and they parted ways in 1995.

Roberts’ love life only stabilized once she began dating her now-husband, Daniel Moder, who she married in 2002. Roberts recently shared a rare photo on Instagram to celebrate her wedding anniversary.

In the photo, the couple can be seen passionately kissing. Roberts captioned her photo “21”―the number of years she has spent as Moder’s wife. The “Runaway Bride” actress believes her husband is her “true love.”

How Did Julia Marry a Simple Man after Famous Ex Left Her?

Finding true love was a challenging journey for the actress. She had to go through a difficult time before meeting the man who made her feel special. Before tying the knot with Moder, Roberts dated Benjamin Bratt for a few years.

Her relationship with the “Miss Congeniality” actor ended after the actor began feeling bothered by her fame. He compared her popularity to a “mosquito that buzzes in your ear when you’re trying to sleep at night.”

After parting ways with her, Bratt tied the knot with Talisa Soto, while Roberts became friends with Moder, who was working as a cameraman when they first met. At that time, Moder was married, but his relationship with his ex-wife was growing weaker.

Soon, he filed for divorce and began working on his relationship with Roberts. The couple spent time together at their houses instead of meeting in public. They got to know each other and soon decided to tie the knot.

However, their friends and family did not know about their plan. Instead of telling everyone they were getting married, the couple invited their close ones to Roberts’ ranch for an Independence Day celebration.

The couple’s friends and family learned about their wedding ceremony only after reaching her ranch. They hadn’t invited any celebrities, nor had they informed the paparazzi. Roberts and Moder tied the knot in an intimate ceremony without bridesmaids, groomsmen, or flower girls.

After learning about their wedding, many wondered how an A-list actress could marry a not-so-famous person. Roberts responded to this question in an interview with Oprah Winfrey, saying that she is a “relatively simple person,” but people think of her differently because of her profession. She added that she felt happy and content after marrying Moder.

“My husband, Danny, has really shined the light for me,” she said and later added that her husband accepts her for who she is, which makes her feel “comfortable.” That feeling was something she did not experience in her previous relationship.

While the couple lived a happy life, tabloids tried to look for problems in their relationship. Moder and Roberts kept their married life private, never giving others a chance to talk about their marriage in a negative light.

Julia and Daniel Raised Three Kids, Including Twins, like Ordinary Parents

News of Julia’s pregnancy surfaced almost two years after their private wedding ceremony. She welcomed her twins, Hazel and Phinnaeus, with her husband on November 28, 2004. Three years later, the couple welcomed their third child, Henry.

According to Roberts’ friend, Marc Platt, having kids brought her “fulfillment and joy.” However, the actress never posted photos of her kids online while raising them. She chose to care for them in private in a bid to protect them.

Moreover, Roberts feels glad she didn’t have to post everything on social media to keep everyone updated on her whereabouts. She believed she was “too old” to post everything on the internet as the young celebrities did.

Despite being one of the most famous celebrities, Roberts never let her fame affect her kids. In an interview with ET Canada, the actress said she lived a “normal” life with her children.

“Of course, my life has changed, and I work less, but I was never really one to work too much,” the actress said about her life after kids. She added that time passes quickly when she spends her day making three meals and cleaning up.

Because of her busy schedule with her kids, Roberts even refused the invite to 2009’s Academy Awards. Instead, she stayed home with her husband and kids because that was more important to her.

In a 2017 interview with InStyle, Roberts talked about the importance of sitting at the dinner table with children. “I have breakfast and dinner with my kids every day,” she revealed before explaining how that helps the family start their day together and then discuss how it went at dinner.

Raising kids and having a loving husband by her side was one of Roberts‘ dreams that came true. She enjoys living a happy life with her kids and husband, who mean the world to her.

Keanu Reeves is widely loved by fans for his acting skills and his genuine kindness, which sets him apart from other actors in Hollywood. He consistently demonstrates his amiable nature, making him one of the most beloved figures in the industry.

Keanu has been a popular topic of discussion for many years. However, there is now surprising news emerging about him. The story began in 1992, but it has recently been uncovered that there is a lot more to it. In the movie Dracula directed by Francis Ford Coppola, Kiana Reeves and Winona Ryder portrayed a married couple. Even though it was just a pretend wedding, Ryder started to suspect a while back that the ceremony might have felt too genuine. Ryder, who is 52 years old, reminisced about the time when the movie Destination Wedding was being advertised 26 years ago.

 

It reminded him of the memories he had with his partner in the film and how the wedding ceremony was officiated by a real priest. In an interview, she said:

 

“We actually got married in Dracula. No, I swear to god I think we’re married in real life. In that scene, Francis [Ford Coppola] used a real Romanian priest. We shot the master and he did the whole thing.

 

So, I think we’re married.” Keanu had a sudden realization that she might have been right and exclaimed, “Oh wow, we’re actually married. ”Keanu recently shared that he did more research and verified with the director that the priest was real, and they might actually be legally married for over thirty years. Hollywood is full of surprises, and this could be a new and exciting chapter that is yet to unfold.

Benji Madden and Cameron Diaz have been married for over nine years now.

After welcoming their daughter four years ago, they’ve recently introduced their second child into the world, keeping their family life largely out of the public eye.

The 51-year-old actress and her 45-year-old musician husband announced the birth of their son, Cardinal, on Friday via Instagram.

Accompanying the announcement was a piece of artwork with the words, “A little bird whispered to me,” signifying the arrival of their newest family member.

In the caption, Madden expressed their joy, saying, “We are blessed and excited to announce the birth of our Son, Cardinal Madden. He is awesome and we are all so happy he is here!”

Given their commitment to privacy, the couple refrained from sharing photos of their children on social media. Madden emphasized their gratitude and love, concluding with warm wishes to everyone.

Their approach to privacy isn’t new. They wed in 2015 and welcomed their daughter, Raddix, in 2019, opting to keep her arrival low-key until after her birth.

In her birth announcement for Raddix, Diaz expressed their happiness and thanked everyone for their support. They also emphasized their desire to shield their daughter from the public eye, revealing only a few details about her birth.

Sources close to the couple have revealed that Raddix was born through surrogacy, a journey filled with challenges that ultimately led to their joyous moment. Diaz reportedly considers her children as miracles, cherishing the journey that brought them into their lives.

However, not all responses to their news have been positive. Some have expressed surprise and skepticism, questioning the couple’s decision to expand their family later in life. Despite differing opinions, Madden and Diaz remain focused on their family’s happiness and well-being, prioritizing their privacy above all else.

“I need to just be on my own, kind of experiencing it. The first few minutes are always unbearable: “Why am I standing like that? What am I doing?” he said in a 2019 interview after watching his final portrayal of James Bond.

Cillian Murphy is the actor Brosnan deemed a perfect fit for the role. “Cillian would do a magnificent job as James Bond on His Majesty’s Secret Service,” said Brosnan.

However, not everyone agrees. Some fans think Murphy is “too beautiful” to play Bond. They shared their thoughts on social media, with mixed reactions.

One online user wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter), “Allow me to expand on my comment. I am a Cillian Murphy fan since 28 Days later when zombies were chasing him. I even pronounce his name with a hard “C”. He’s beautiful, but he isn’t Bond.”

Another social media user remarked on the platform, “Cillian Murphy is too pretty to be James Bond.” Like most on here, I think Bond villain when I see Cillian. He’s too beautiful to be Bond,” penned one online user. Someone else said“No, no….NO! I like him and he’s a great actor, but he is not Bond by any stretch of the imagination.”

Meanwhile, some people believe Murphy is a good fit to play Bond. “I think he would be great as Bond, but I don’t want him to do it because he’ll be stuck as Bond for a decade. And I want to see him in different roles every movie he does,” said one person.

Another commented“I think he’d be perfect. Bond is a cold, calculating spy, actually. If Cillian decided to take on the role, he would give an exceptional performance, as always.” One individual wrote, “I think he’s such a wonderful actor that he can nail any character. Certainly didn’t ‘look’ the part of Tommy Shelby, and he was absolutely brilliant.”

Yet, Murphy himself has expressed reservations, citing age concerns about taking on the iconic role. “I think I’m a bit old for that,” he said. Apart from Brosnan, Coral’s Harry Aitkenhead stated Murphy is a leading candidate suggested to continue the Bond legacy.

As speculation continues, several other actors have been rumored to step into Craig’s shoes, each bringing unique traits to the potential portrayal of James Bond.

Idris Elba

Idris Elba is a popular choice among fans for the next Bond. Speculation surrounding the possibility of the actor and producer being hired as the first Black man for James Bond in part, stems from a 2018 survey in The Hollywood Reporter.

According to the findings, 63 percent of Americans voted for Elba to play the role. Despite widespread support and rumors, the British native has clarified that he has not been seriously considered for the part.

Elba confirmed in an interview, saying he would not partake in the film franchise, and admitted he does not like talking about this conversation. “Of course, if someone said to me ‘Do you want to play James Bond?,’ I’d be like, Yeah! That’s fascinating to me. But it’s not something I’ve expressed, like, Yeah, I wanna be the black James Bond,” said Elba.

The movie star further explained he does not want to put himself in a position where the color of his skin would become a topic of discussion if his stint in the franchise succeeds or fails. Elba acknowledged the iconic status of Bond but prefers to focus on roles that allow more character creation.

Most importantly, he does not want the character to “define” moving forward. “Bond is one of the biggest franchises in the world, and for that reason, whoever ends up playing it, lives it. […] I’m creating characters now that can still live alongside Idris. Not ones that take over me and solely define me,” Elba expressed.

A blend of intrigue and reticence has marked Tom Hardy’s connection to the Bond role. Hardy, known for his transformative performances, avoids directly discussing the possibility of starring in the Bond films.

He previously worked with Nolan in “Inception.” Hardy’s admiration for the franchise and its recent directors hints at the intriguing possibilities of his potential tenure as Bond.

After television host, Jimmy Fallon mentioned that the internet had made him the front-runner to become the next Bond. The actor and producer responded, “I think the internet thinks a lot of things, and that’s one of the more pleasant ones, so I can be pleased, as far as that goes. I think there might be an element of like a cultural translation to be done here.”

“Like, if you’re a Brit, and you do something, of any kind of renown, that people regard very well, then people start saying the B-word. You know, it’s like a merit badge. You get the B-word merit badge. But I don’t think it’s much more than that. I’m very, very glad to have the badge,” the movie star further lamented.

Tom Hiddleston

Tom Hiddleston, another British actor frequently associated with the role, has experienced his share of Bond-related speculation, particularly following his acclaimed performance in “The Night Manager.”

Despite the enthusiastic fan support, Hiddleston has consistently downplayed the rumors, emphasizing the speculative nature of such discussions and the reality of the role’s casting process.

In 2016, the actor and producer said he did not believe he would be considered for the Bond role. “I don’t think that announcement is coming,” Hiddleston stated at the Wizard World Comic Con in Philadelphia. “I am very gratified to hear the enthusiasm. Your guess is as good as mine, to be honest.”

Henry Cavill

Henry Cavill, with his striking presence and proven action credentials, remains a strong contender for the role of James Bond. Cavill’s interest in the role is no secret, having previously auditioned for it before Craig’s tenure at age 22.

The actor and producer, best known for starring in “Superman,” was asked in a 2017 interview whether he would be keen to appear in the film franchise. Cavill said if the franchise’s producers, Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson would consider him, then he would take up the opportunity.

Craig was set to step down as the 007 agent at the time. Cavill expressed, “At this stage, it’s all up in the air. We’ll see what happens. But yes, I would love to play Bond, it would be very, very exciting.”

The search for the next James Bond continues to captivate the public’s imagination, with each potential candidate bringing their own unique qualities and challenges to the role. While Brosnan has made his preference clear, the ultimate decision remains in the hands of the franchise’s custodians.

Jamie Lee Curtis’ one daughter, Ruby, 28, stayed out of the spotlight until her personal journey and gender transition became public knowledge. But what would she look like today if she never transitioned?

Ruby Guest works as a video editor for a gaming personality on YouTube, married in 2022, and she also underwent a gender transition. The road that led to her life now had been one marked by learning, acceptance, and support. But what if she never transitioned from male to female? What would she look like now? Read on to find out.

Admittingly, it took longer after a bad therapy experience, but her mom and dad have since “watched in wonder and pride as [their] son became [their] daughter Ruby.”

In 2020, Ruby sat her parents down at the family’s Los Angeles home to share her truth, but at first, she couldn’t.

It was intimidating — but I wasn’t worried. They had been so accepting of me my entire life,” Ruby said in an interview.

Instead of telling her parents, Ruby left and texted her mother instead. “I called her immediately. Needless to say there were some tears involved,” Jamie Lee recalled.

Ruby has since reached a point where she is comfortable talking about her journey publicly, and in doing so, hopes to help others.“I’ve tried to stay out of the spotlight for many years, or at least done my best to. I’m happy to be more visible if it helps others,” she said.

It’s learning new terminology and words,” she said. “I am new at it. I am not someone who is pretending to know much about it. And I’m going to blow it, I’m going to make mistakes. I would like to try to avoid making big mistakes.”

You become a little more mindful about what you’re saying. How you’re saying it. You still mess up, I’ve messed up today twice. We’re human,” Jamie Lee added.

I told them, ‘Well, I’m male.’ After, I’d dwell on the thought. I knew I was — maybe not Ruby per se, but I knew I was different,” she explained.

They finally get to see who I’ve always been, you know, inside, but now I finally get to show it on the outside,” Ruby explained.

I don’t think it’s only our household thing. It should be a human thing,” she concluded.

Ruby’s words came after her mom jumped to her defense when homophobic threats against her made the rounds, as we previously reported. Jamie Lee Curtis revealed there were threats made against her daughter during an interview in October 2022, to her shock.Curtis said people threatened to “annihilate” Ruby and people like her just for being transgender. She added that she could not fathom “the level of hatred” among society which is “terrifying.”

The “My Girl” star admitted that she is “scared” for her child’s life but noted that she has a “voice” that she intends to use while encouraging others to do the same if they want to see change.While Jamie Lee and her husband adopted both their kids, she is every bit the devoted and protective mother. She cut Ruby’s umbilical cord right after birth in March 1996, and was the first person to hold her.Even though she can’t remember how they came to be Ruby’s parents, it happened after several “circumstances occurred, all of which were celestial.”

In the aftermath of her mother’s passing, a woman faced a startling revelation regarding the distribution of her mother’s significant inheritance.

 

Despite a deep bond shared between them during her mother’s battle with cancer, the woman found herself left out while her greedy brother and aunts eagerly anticipated their share.

As the will was read, the woman was shocked to learn that her mother’s life savings of $5 million would be split among her brother and aunts, leaving her with nothing.

Overwhelmed by emotions and questioning her actions during her mother’s final months, she received a surprising twist in the form of an envelope containing an address.
