In her caption, the 58-year-old star of “Pretty Woman” expressed her joy with a jubilant message: “TWENTY ❤️🤍💙 FOUR. MORE MORE MORE 🤩.” The post garnered attention from friends and fans, with many celebrities commenting on the enduring love shared between the couple. Rita Wilson took to the comments to celebrate, saying, “Happy happy happy anniversary Moders!!! Love rules! Love wins!!! ❤️❤️❤️.” Another notable well-wisher, Ali Wentworth, extended her greetings with, “Happy Anniversary to the ultimate couple!!! Sending you loads of love! ❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙.”
Roberts and Moder first crossed paths in 2000 while filming “The Mexican,” where Roberts played the role of love interest Samantha, alongside Brad Pitt. Moder, who was part of the crew, served as the cameraman on the project. Their romance blossomed shortly after, leading to a private wedding ceremony on July 4, 2002, in Taos, New Mexico.
Reflecting on their union during a 2018 appearance on Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop podcast, Roberts described the moment of marrying Moder as transformative. “Getting married to Danny. That was the first, like, my life will never be the same in the most incredible, indescribable way,” she shared. The actress expressed her deep affection, declaring, “The best decision I ever made in my entire life was to hitch my wagon to Danny Moder.”
The couple, who prefer to keep their family life away from the public eye, are parents to three children. Their family includes twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, who are both 21 years old, as well as their younger son Henry, who is 19.
While they often remain out of the spotlight, Roberts and Moder occasionally share glimpses of their life together. Earlier this year, the pair made a rare public appearance at the 2026 Golden Globes, where they were seen smiling alongside actress and singer Teyana Taylor.
Speaking with Entertainment Tonight during the promotional events for “After the Hunt” in September, Roberts shared insights into the joy Moder brings to her life. When her co-star Andrew Garfield mentioned that his source of joy changes frequently, Roberts quipped, “Mine doesn’t.” This moment encapsulated the stability and happiness she finds in her relationship.
In an interview with CBS News Sunday Morning in October 2022, Roberts elaborated on her perspective of success. While her career in acting has fulfilled many dreams, she stressed that the life she cherishes most is the one she has built with her husband and children. “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,” she said, highlighting her commitment to family.
As Roberts and Moder celebrate more than two decades of shared life, their relationship stands as a testament to enduring love and partnership in the often tumultuous landscape of celebrity life. They have navigated the challenges of fame while nurturing a close-knit family, enjoying the simple moments that matter most.
