Julia Roberts’ 16-year-old daughter, Hazel Roberts, has her inaugural appearance on the Red Carpet.
Julia Roberts stands out among celebrities for leading a relatively ordinary life, having been happily married to cinematographer Daniel Moder for 19 years. The couple, seemingly content, prioritizes their family life, which includes three children: 16-year-old twins Phinnaeus and Hazel, as well as their 14-year-old son, Henry.
Unlike many Hollywood families, Roberts and Moder intentionally keep their children out of the public eye, rarely making appearances at events and seldom sharing family photos on social media. However, Hazel made a rare appearance alongside her father at the Cannes Film Festival in France in July, where they were promoting the film Flag Day, directed by Sean Penn.
Although Hazel did not have a role in the film like Penn’s children, her presence garnered attention due to her striking beauty. While some note her resemblance to her mother, many see a strong likeness to her father in her features. Hazel, with her blonde hair and blue eyes, made a fashionable statement at the event in a soft yellow lace gown and black Mary Jane heels, exuding elegance with modest makeup and a pulled-back ponytail.
Moder was visibly proud of his daughter, staying by her side throughout the evening. Whether Hazel or her siblings have aspirations in the film industry remains unknown, as their parents prefer to maintain their privacy, a decision understandable given Roberts’ grounded nature despite her reported substantial income.
In 2016, Hazel and her brothers had minor roles in Roberts’ film, Mother’s Day. Reflecting on her fame, Roberts once mentioned to Harper’s Bazaar that her children might not fully grasp her celebrity status, highlighting the generational gap in understanding. She acknowledges the challenges modern teenagers face and admits to not fully comprehending them herself, opting to approach her children’s questions with honesty and humility, recognizing her limitations in relating to their experiences.
