Julia Roberts' VERY simple celebration for 23rd wedding anniversary despite being worth $250million
The Academy Award winner, 57, who has a reported net worth of $250 million, opted to celebrate their 23rd anniversary in a surprising and relatable way.
With that amount of money, they could have dined at the most expensive restaurant in the world, Sublimotion in Ibiza, Spain, which offers a 20-course tasting menu priced at $2,380 per person.
Or taken a private jet to anywhere around the world.
But instead, the couple proved that no amount of money can buy happiness as they enjoyed a very simple-looking camping trip together.
'You + Me = 23,' the Erin Brockovich star wrote in the caption of her tent photo.
Moder also shared a snap from their outdoor adventure. He captioned his post, '23 years is SILVER..here we are in my engraved SPOON! the fun continues… and a happy 4th to all��
The couple married in 2002 at the My Best Friend's Wedding actress' 82-acre ranch in Taos, New Mexico, on Independence Day 2002.
They exchanged simple vows with no wedding party or celebrity guests.
The couple share three kids, twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, 20, and Henry, 18.
Julia has always prioritized her family over her career and said that becoming a celebrated actress was a 'dream come true,' but it wasn't her 'only dream come true.
'The life that I've built with my husband,' she told CBS Sunday Morning in 2022.
'The life that we've built with our children. And that's the best stuff, to come home at the end of the day triumphantly to them.'
They say money can't buy happiness but Julia and Danny seem to have that in spades and have no need for the flashy display of wealth that other famous couples partake in
Julia and Danny keep their relationship out of the public eye, but recently she gave partial credit to him for her youthful looks in her late 50s.
'Good genes, leading a life that is fulfilling, and I have said this—and I say it usually as kind of a joke—but I do believe in the love of a good man,' she told British Vogue in January.
'I believe that my husband loves me and cares for me in a way that makes me feel deeply, deeply happy.'
Indeed, the Notting Hill actress said meeting Danny, 56, back in 2001 on the set of The Mexican was divine timing.
'The luckiest aspect of my work life/family life is that the success of my work life came earlier,' Julia explained.
'So by the time I had the success of my family life and had a husband and children who wanted to stay home, I had been working for 18 years. And so I felt that I had the luxury. I didn't have to pick one or the other,' she said.
When asked what the key to their long lasting love is, Julia got a little cheeky in her reply.
'I always say that same thing and I'm sticking with it,' Julia told E! News in 2022. 'It's making out. Lots of making out.'
'The life that I've built with my husband,' she told CBS Sunday Morning in 2022. 'The life that we've built with our children. And that's the best stuff, to come home at the end of the day triumphantly to them.'
The Leave the World Behind star marked their 21st anniversary two years ago with an Instagram pic of them smooching, captioning it, '#truelove #heckyeah #fromhereonout'
'He's my favorite person on the planet,' Roberts told People in 2020 of her husband. 'I love spending time with him… His point of view is really valuable to me.'
She continued: 'Danny is very much a part of [our kids' routine] so there's only one little element gone – I like to think I'm an important element,' she said of being away from her children while filming.
Her love for her husband and family has translated to greater happiness with herself as well.
'I just had my birthday and I don't think I had felt so happy on a birthday in quite a long while,' Roberts said.
'I think part of it is just the happy space that I'm lucky enough to occupy in the world, with my family and my friends – and I played Mahjong all day.'

Foo Fighters' new drummer revealed
Foo Fighters have reportedly chosen Ilan Rubin, known for his work with Nine Inch Nails, as their new drummer. Sources confirmed Rubin's involvement, though it is not yet clarified if he will be a full-time member or a touring drummer. This development comes two months after the band's previous drummer, Josh Freese, announced he had been 'booted' from the group. Freese had joined Foo Fighters after the recording of their 2023 album But Here We Are and was the replacement for long-time drummer Taylor Hawkins, who died in 2022. Rubin has also played with other notable bands including Paramore, Lostprophets, and Angels & Airwaves.

No, loony Left, Sydney Sweeney isn't promoting white supremacy
Before this week, had you ever heard of a clothing brand called American Eagle? I hadn't. But I certainly have now. And it's all thanks to a mob of Left-wing dingbats who seem to have convinced themselves that its jeans are racist. A few days ago, American Eagle launched an advert starring the young actress Sydney Sweeney (best-known for The White Lotus, Euphoria and her not-exactly-reticent attitude towards exhibiting her physique). The ad shows her modelling the firm's wares, alongside the tagline, 'Sydney Sweeney has great jeans.' And, as one, the world's most shriekingly hysterical Leftists decided to interpret this as an endorsement of far-Right eugenics. Because, well… 'jeans' sounds like 'genes', doesn't it? And Sydney Sweeney's blonde and blue-eyed, isn't she? You know – like the Nazis, right? Naturally, America's top liberal media outlets were straight on the case. 'Sydney Sweeney's new campaign draws fire for racial undertones', thundered Salon. 'Sydney Sweeney fronts ad campaign for jeans – sparks debate about eugenics', fretted Newsweek. The Washington Post, meanwhile, ran an 'analysis' headlined: 'How American Eagle's Sydney Sweeney 'good jeans' ad went wrong.' (Did it? What if American Eagle is only trying to sell jeans to people who are sane, rather than howlingly deranged?) Of course, you might assume that the people denouncing the ad on these ludicrous grounds are all Gen Z TikTok users with blue hair and nose rings. But I'm afraid not. Because, in a quest to decide whether the ad is indeed 'Nazi propaganda', the TV channel ABC News spoke to an actual university professor – who declared, in all apparent seriousness, that the ad's tagline 'activates troubling historical associations for [the US]'. Specifically, 'the American eugenics movement, [which] in its prime, between 1900 and 1940, weaponised the idea of 'good genes' to justify white supremacism'. "The blond haired blue eyed actress talks about genes as in DNA being passed down..." "Nazi propaganda with racial undertones..." This is Good Morning America. This is ABC News. — MAZE (@mazemoore) July 29, 2025 Well, I suppose that's one way of looking at it. But perhaps I could venture to put forward an alternative. Which is that the ad is not, in fact, part of a neo-Nazi plot to help usher in the Fourth Reich, but is instead intended to sell denim trousers. Hence the use of a famous young actress to show how good the denim trousers look. As for the pun on her having 'great genes', I suspect it refers to the actress's celebrated physical attractiveness rather than her suitability to lead the master race in a conquest of Europe. Still, whatever the motives of American Eagle's bosses, this imbecilic uproar has earned their products more publicity than they could ever have dreamed of. It's the inverse of 'go woke, go broke'. Offend the Trots, earn lots.
