Julia Roberts Looks Loved-Up In Birthday Tribute For Husband Danny Moder
Julia Roberts just reminded the internet why her love story with husband Daniel “Danny” Moder continues to feel refreshingly real—even after more than two decades together.
On Saturday, January 31, the After the Hunt actress shared a sweet PDA-filled photo on Instagram to celebrate Moder’s 57th birthday. The image shows the couple embracing closely, with Moder gently resting his hand on the top of Roberts’ head—a simple, intimate moment that fans instantly adored.
Alongside the photo, Roberts, 58, kept her caption short but full of affection:
“🔥🎉🥰🎂🔥 My fav day. My fav man.”
Sometimes, that’s all it takes.
A Love Story That Started on Set—and Lasted
Julia Roberts and Daniel Moder first met on the set of the 2001 film The Mexican. Their connection grew quickly, and the couple tied the knot in 2002. Today, they’re proud parents to three children: twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, now 21, and their youngest son, Henry, 18.
Despite Roberts’ global fame, their marriage has largely stayed grounded, private, and remarkably strong—something she’s often credited to consistent effort and genuine affection.
“Never Stop Kissing”: Julia’s Marriage Mantra
Ahead of their 20th wedding anniversary in 2022, Roberts shared what she believes is the secret to a lasting relationship. Speaking on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show, she said with a smile:
“That’s the secret — never stop kissing. Two bathroom sinks and lots of kissing.”
It’s advice that feels both playful and deeply sincere—very much on brand for the actress.
Love Letters, Family, and Deep Respect
Later that same year, Roberts revealed on CBS Sunday Morning that she and Moder still write letters to each other. She’s even saved the very first letter he ever wrote her.
“One day, I’ll show it to Hazel and say, ‘That’s what you’re looking for,’” she shared, offering a glimpse into how their relationship shapes their family values.
In a December 2023 interview with Today, Roberts described Moder as “the anchor” of their family, adding:
“He’s our person and, in the most beautiful way, the captain of our ship.”
For Roberts, understanding “how deeply felt life could be,” she says, truly began with him.
Why Fans Can’t Get Enough
In an age of fleeting celebrity relationships, Julia Roberts and Daniel Moder continue to stand out—not because they overshare, but because when they do share, it feels honest. This latest birthday post wasn’t flashy or staged. It was warm, personal, and quietly romantic—exactly the kind of moment that resonates.
And judging by the reaction online, fans wouldn’t want it any other way.
