In Hollywood, it is expected that marriages will fall apart after only a short time. However, there are exceptions to the rule. While Julia Roberts was initially unlucky in love, she managed to turn it all around.

Julia Roberts and her husband, Daniel Moder, celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary. Reaching the 20-year mark is almost unheard of in Hollywood, but this couple is still very much in love.

To mark the occasion, Roberts took to Instagram to share a photograph of the couple sharing a kiss. The post’s caption said “Twenty,” in all capital letters with star emojis on either side of the word.

She also added hashtags to the post, which suggested the couple had not stopped smiling or kissing throughout their twenty-year marriage. The post was met with lovely comments from adoring fans and friends.

The couple has amassed fans in their rights as actors and as a couple because of the unique love story they share and the beautiful life that they have built for themselves and their children.

Moder and Roberts met in 2000 while Roberts was filming “The Mexican,” in which her co-star was Brad Pitt. Although they are now admired as one of the longest-running couples in Hollywood, their relationship began with a scandal.

Vera revealed that while she and Moder were still married, Roberts had been courting her husband. She addressed Roberts and warned:

“Danny has a roving eye … and he won’t change.”

Because Roberts and Moder began their relationship while he was still married, Vera even went so far as to call Roberts a “husband stealer.” She also said that the couple’s marriage would not last, and Roberts would soon be looking for a new husband.

While Vera tried hard to make it seem like Roberts was the cause of the dissolution of her marriage to Moder, Moder and Roberts later addressed the issue, telling the press that wasn’t true.

Roberts admitted that it was easy to blame her because of the timing, but she was not the cause of her husband’s divorce. She said she didn’t mind pointing fingers at her as she knew the truth.

The actress then revealed the sequence of events from when Moder divorced Vera to when he married Roberts. She said:

“He sorted his whole thing out, separate and apart from me, and I sorted...
