\nDespite her global fame and a career that has earned her millions, Julia Roberts has chosen a life grounded in family rather than the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. Known for her iconic roles in films like Pretty Woman and Erin Brockovich, Roberts could have easily stayed immersed in the world of red carpets and movie premieres. Instead, she has opted for a quieter, more personal path as a dedicated wife and mother of three.\n
Julia, along with her husband, cinematographer Daniel Moder, shares their life with their three children: twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, and their son, Henry. Despite being one of the most celebrated actresses of her generation, Roberts finds fulfillment in the everyday, hands-on experiences of family life. In interviews, she has expressed how much she cherishes the role of a homemaker, revealing that her days revolve around caring for her family and running the household.\n

\u201cI don\u2019t have the luxury of sitting around anymore,\u201d Julia confessed in a rare interview. \u201cI must have had bags of spare time before I had children, but I don\u2019t know what I did with it, and I didn\u2019t appreciate it.\u201d From preparing breakfast each morning to taking on the many household chores, Roberts is deeply involved in her family\u2019s daily routines. She cooks for her kids, cleans the kitchen, and keeps the house running smoothly. By the time dinner rolls around, she has already had a full, productive day.\n
Balancing Fame with Family Life This commitment to family is reflected in how they raise their kids. Julia has spoken about the importance of teaching her children practical life skills. “We make sure our kids learn to do things for themselves,” she shared. “They know how to do their laundry, make their own beds, and look after themselves. It’s all part of helping them grow into responsible, independent people.” Despite her fame, Julia ensures that her children lead a grounded, relatively ordinary life, where family values and self-sufficiency are paramount.\n The Moral of Julia\u2019s Story: Fulfillment Comes from Within Her story is a lesson about finding balance in a world that often glorifies fame and success. It\u2019s a reminder that the greatest joys in life don\u2019t always come from public accolades or financial gain, but from the personal connections and quiet moments that define our home lives. Julia\u2019s decision to devote herself to her children and family shows that fulfillment doesn\u2019t necessarily require the limelight\u2014it can be found in the routine, in the mundane, and in the love that binds us together.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Despite her global fame and a career that has earned her millions, Julia Roberts has chosen a life grounded in family rather than the glitz and glamour of Hollywood.
