Julia Roberts Makes Rare Public Appearance with Her Three Adorable Children

Family photo time!

Julia Roberts gave us a rare glimpse of her growing family on Saturday when she and husband Danny Moder brought their three kids — twins Phinnaeus and Hazel, both 10, and Henry, 8 — to the Malibu launch party for Outerknown, surfer Kelly Slater‘s new line of clothing.

The family posed for a photo alongside Slater, with Roberts, 47, looking California chic in black shorts and a loose-fitting black top.

The couple weren’t the only stars to bring their children to the celebrity-studded event โ€” Anthony Kiedis also brought his son, Everly Bear, 7, to the party, and Cindy Crawford and husband Rande Gerber brought kids Presley and Kaia. Gerard Butler, Jason Statham, and Chris Hemsworth and wife Elsa Pataky were also on hand.

Roberts has always made it a point to keep her children out of the spotlight and give them a life as “normal” as possible.

“We try to protect our kids,” she told USA Today in 2013. “We just want to have our family life and not have that intruded upon.”

In order to do this, Roberts purposely planned her movie roles around her kids, making sure she didn’t miss out on any big moments in their lives. She also cut back on the number of projects she takes on each year.

It looks like Julia’s twins took after her husband and little Henry resembles her. What a beautiful family to look at ๐Ÿ™‚

Heather on

I haven’t liked her ever since she got together with him while he was a newlywed, then taunted his wife as if SHE was the one in the wrong. Yuck.

natalie on

hazel kind of looks like her cousin emma.

Sharon on

Cool… I really enjoyed seeing this family!

Ologius on

Henry is a mini me of Roberts, looks so much like her when she played Tink in Hook. I really respect her and all she’s done to keep the paps away from harassing celebrities children.

sue's on

Good mom’s put their children’s needs ahead of themselves ..

Julie on

She built her happiness on someone’s sadness and that will forever be her karma. What woman would do what she did to seduce and bought another woman’s husband using her power and fame then came back to taunt and harass the poor woman. I don’t care her talents.

Chongsterink on

Good looking kids!!!

Lp on

I wonder what was so attractive about this man that she had to have him at all costs, even though he was married to another woman?

Angel on

Beautiful family…

Linda on

Miley,
Put some clothes. You are a shame to the human race in general !

Dee on

I was once a fan of hers. Not anymore. What she did to Danny’s wife, humiliated her in public, the affair with Julia causing Vera to miscarry a child and Danny’s family blamed the affair with Julia that caused the heart attack of his mother. They are both disgusting creatures.

I wonder if Danny or Julia will ever tell their kids, that Danny was a married man when they conducted an illicit adulterous affair, that caused the death of their could have been half sister or brother and grandmother?

Chris on

NORMAL looking celeb kids. Take note Kardashian, Will Smith, Cyrus family. This is how it should be done.

Marge on

Kelly Sltater is HOTTTTT

Cute family picture.

Are they her biological children? I can’t remember her being pregnant. But then, I can’t remember what I had for breakfast. ๐Ÿ™‚

Peace of pie on

Homely bunch.

I love how people are blaming Julia for the miscarriage of Danny’s ex-wife. Funny, I didn’t know that having an affair is a cause of miscarriages. You people are stupid if you think that’s the reason she had one. Miscarriages happen for hundreds of reasons, but I really don’t think someone’s husband having an affair is at the top of that list.

Sunny on

Good lord, Dee. Get over it. It had nothing to do with you.

guest on

All the ridiculous people lamenting the end of his first marriage, get a grip. She did not cause anyone’s heart attack or miscarriage….bunch of drama queens. They look like a nice happy family but the kids look a bit tired, cute, but tired.

JT on

I never thought Julia was very talented. She acts the same with every character she plays. I just don’t see the appeal in her; she’s overated.

Ginger on

Her kids are adorable.

soph on

You really have to wonder, Lp?

Tommis on

Julia thinks nothing of parking in handicapped stalls. Video proof exists!

maya on

Adorable kids. She is still stunning!

Kimber on

I don’t think I’ve seen her kids since they were quite small. They are absolutely adorable! Her daughter is going to be a real stunner!

Logan on

I don’t see any of her movies after she went after a married man. Julia Roberts can boss and taunt but I can boycott her movies. Her karma is so bad with her causing her sister to kill herself and to bring misery to the Moder family and to taunt Vera.

Cheryl Hanson on

I am sick of hearing about the friggin Dugar family and there woes. They wantd people to think they were so perfect. Screwed up family. The punk kids of there’s that did these awful things has never been in a jail because thee good people kept this all hid. TLC has some terrible shows.

sdb on

never had much time for this woman after she broke up her husband’s marriage to get him. what goes around comes around though; she’ll get hers in time.

guest- Thank you! Miscarriages can be caused by many factors, so can heart attacks. While stress IS indeed one of them, we cannot possibly know whether Danny’s split from his ex-wife was behind either event (heck, even THEY can’t know for sure!). As for Julia’s sister, the only person that could have known why she killed herself was her (the sister).

And if you must assign blame, at least put it where it belongs, on Danny. He’s the one who was married, and ultimately it was HIS actions that led to the end of that marriage (I’m not saying that Julia is blameless, just that Danny, IMO, deserves most of the blame for what happened).

Anyway, the kids are adorable.

Her kids looks adorable.

Mellie on

I love that she is making her family a priority. I’m glad that she is cutting back on the films that she does because of them. Saying that, I hope that she also is watching the quality of the films knowing that someday her children will see them. She has played in a few raunchy parts after she got popular. I cringe to think that these kids will see those. Cute family though. Cute kids.

Selena on

NO woman can “seduce” a grown man, as if hes some mentally handicapped child, to MAKE him leave his wife. HE wanted to leave, so he left. If he was happy he would have stayed. Though its a very immature and scum move, to marry someone, stay married and get her pregnant if you arent happy.

Maybe he saw Julia was a woman out of reach and she wanted him, so he made the decision to make himself happy now, instead of worrying if full happiness would come with the woman he was with later. We dont owe anyone our lives. His ex should be happy such an indecisive man is away from her. And I hope she has found happiness too.

But we dont hear any problems about them and they have 3 normal looking kids. If they were meant to be, let them. Love isnt always pretty. What matters is you follow your heart and move on with it. I doubt she really cares if you like how they met. Shes has her success, she has her family. Enjoy yours too.

It appears that some of you folks are sad people. This is abut the children – hope none of you have kids. Really?

Ashley on

Selena, I’m sorry, but Julia really wasn’t playing fair here. Not one man would be able to say no if a successful, beautiful, rich movie star was interested in them. I repeat it: none of them! It’s very naive to think otherwise. And btw it’s particularly nasty to build one’s happiness on others’ sorrow.
And I’m sorry, that you think Vera is better off without an ‘indecisive man’, but this is exactly the sorry @ss excuse that cheaters usually make to justify their actions and make themselves feel better about it. And, no honey, that’s not how it works.
Oh and you sound exactly like someone who would go after married men. Just saying.

Momof3girls on

Nice pic of the family!!! Seriously people, get a grip!!! Were you all part of his first marriage? NOOOOOOO!!!! You have no idea what the situation was and you know what?? you can’t break up a happy marriage!!! You can’t “steal” a man away who doesn’t want to be “stolen”!!!

ebonypearl on

Is anyone else thinking the “people” moaning about an affair is really just one person who has a major issue with them?

Anonymous on

Ashley- ” Not one man would be able to say no if a successful, beautiful, rich movie star was interested in them. I repeat it: none of them!” I’m sorry, but either you know a bunch of SUPER insecure men or you’re on something. There are plenty of men out there who would not leave their wives for ANYTHING (short of abuse, that is!).

Also, men that are truly happy in their marriages don’t look twice at other women, no matter how beautiful or rich they may be (NOT saying that it’s okay for men UNHAPPY in their marriages to do so, just that they’re the only ones who would!)- because they already have that woman (there’s more than one type of richness and beauty!)! ๐Ÿ™‚

sdb- You’d really wish a broken home on these children? Sad.

selena and Momof3girls- Right on! NOBODY can break up a happy marriage, NOBODY! Again, I’m not condoning cheating, just saying that people need to wake up and realize that Danny (and other men who cheat) are responsible for their own actions!

ebonypearl- That DID cross my mind.

Julia looks amazing at age 47, also she and her husband looks like brother and sisters lol

Wow! Lots of JUDGEMENTAL people here…You only know and believed the one side of the story. Who are you to give judgement???.. If a man left his partner or wife, he can give a hundred different reasons. But NOBODY and NOBODY can drag or force a man to have or jump into another woman. Why blame Julia?…I am not a fan of her… Just stating the facts.

Sherron Teal on

I agree homely looking bunch! Never did think Julia Roberts was very attractive and stealing another woman’s husband then taunting her makes her pure scum!
