When they first got together, few people predicted a long and happy future for them. However, Julia Roberts and Daniel Moder have been a couple for 22 years. On their anniversary, the star posted a photo with her husband. It’s rare to see them in such an intimate moment.

Julia Roberts is, first and foremost, a great actress. Just mention her roles in films such as "Pretty Woman," "Erin Brockovich" (for which she won an Oscar for Best Actress), or "Steel Magnolias." Her private life has always attracted as much attention as her professional accomplishments.

For a long time, Roberts was considered a romantic icon. She was linked to Liam Neeson, Matthew Perry, and Kiefer Sutherland. Everything changed when she met cameraman Daniel Moder in the 2000 movie "The Mexican." The actress fell hopelessly in love, and just two years later, on July 4, 2002, she married the filmmaker.

Their beginnings were not easy. Both had to end previous relationships. Roberts was with Benjamin Bratt, and Daniel was married to makeup artist Vera Steimberg. It was rumored that Vera didn’t want to grant the cameraman a divorce, so Julia wrote a check that helped speed up the process.

Few people believed in their relationship back then. Nevertheless, Julia and Daniel have been married for 22 years and have three children. They consistently avoid media attention and the spotlight.

Photos like the one posted on their wedding anniversary are a real rarity. It shows Julia and Daniel kissing passionately. Time has not lessened the strength of their feelings.
