Date: June 29, 2024 Writer: James William None to say Henry, Julia Roberts’ “beautiful” son, turns 17 today: a rare look at her youngest Julia Roberts celebrated her youngest son’s 17th birthday on Instagram with a beautiful picture. Despite the unexpected image—Julia is typically known to be reticent about her children—she and her spouse have previously revealed incredible photos of Henry Moder that have left people in awe. A very happy birthday to the kid of Hollywood’s most renowned couple, Julia Roberts and Daniel Moder! Henry Moder, the youngest member of their family, turned seventeen on June 18. A flurry of encouraging remarks have been left on social media by his loving mother, who celebrated the joyous occasion with a number of beautiful mother-son messages. In the photo, the “Pretty Woman” actress is seen looking down at Henry, who is still a newborn. Her eyes are shining with delight and affection. The curious and charming baby seems absorbed in something outside of the frame, cradled in his mother’s protective arms.
Julia expressed both her pride and her shock in a succinct yet beautiful caption she penned for the picture. It’s incredible how this little child has developed into a fantastic 17-year-old! She wrote, “Happy Birthday, Henry! You are beautiful.” Although Julia and Henry’s father, Daniel, respect their children’s privacy, on occasion the pair provides exclusive photos and videos of their children. Daniel in particular has been entertaining fans on social media with videos of Henry, Hazel, and Phinnaeus Moder enjoying a good time, showcasing precious family moments.
Daniel posted a video on Instagram of Henry showing off his skating skills at a skate park. In the slow-motion video, the child can be seen riding his skateboard up an incline while wearing dark pants and an olive-colored t-shirt.Henry succeeds in turning the board around at the top of the ramp, putting his gorgeous face in the frame of the camera. Then, when the camera pans closer, his attractive eyes and face are shown in close-up.Daniel shared the incredible footage on June 18, 2021, in observance of Henry’s 14th birthday. The springs twist and swirl, swaying fourteen times in the air. Ya Henry,” the proud father captioned the photo.
In the post’s comment area, followers of the now-17-year-old were applauding and thanking him in addition to sharing their thoughts on which parent Henry most resembled. “He looks just like you. Nice child, said one of his supporters.In agreement, a second person remarked, “Looks precisely like his Dad!lovely offspring While acknowledging the father-son likeness, the other individual also highlighted Henry’s mother, remarking, “Has mom’s hair.” There is no denying that child. Hehe.On the other hand, a commenter on Instagram said, “This family obviously has no Roberts genes at all!” Once more, after Henry’s father-lookalike shared an earlier picture of his child on social media, people swarmed to the comments area.
Henry is seen in the 2018 picture posing casually stylish in a lighthouse. The boy on skates looked down at the camera, his long hair falling in a carefree way to frame his face.”Look closely to see the star spangled shorts,” Daniel captioned the surreal picture. One cool young person…Happy Fourth of July from a lighthouse near the Cape. Beneath the picture, an admirer remarked, “Handsome Henry,” and another, “Julia’s eyes.”Whether or not Henry and his siblings look alike, Julia is still incredibly in love with them. She has often boasted about them and places her responsibilities as a mother above all else.
During an interview promoting her latest movie, “Ticket to Paradise,” Julia was asked how she defined herself as a homemaker by the interviewer. “When I’m not working, that’s my full-time job,” stated the mother of three. Though it’s not all sunshine and kittens, I am really delighted about it.
She also discussed her unique bond with Henry, whom she refers to as her breakfast partner as they both benefit much from that most important meal of the day. I love breakfast, thus it’s my favorite meal. My morning buddy is my younger son Henry,” Julia remarked.The interviewer was so aware of the “Notting Hill” actress’s love of breakfast that they made a joke about how the interview would keep her from eating with Henry Moder. Yes, in fact! We love eating breakfast! With a smile, Julia Roberts concurred.
Julia loves her twins Phinnaeus and Hazel in addition to Henry. As her lone daughter joined her father, a cinematographer, at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival to promote his film “Flag Day,” Julia spoke affectionately about Hazel. The audience was captivated by the father-daughter exchange and shocked by how much Daniel looked like her.Hazel, then sixteen, wore a stylish yet laid-back outfit for the well-known event. She wore black Mary Janes with big heels and a yellow button-down dress with floral lace embroidery. Her fair hair was likewise tied back into a ponytail by her. On the other hand, her father looked dapper in a black suit.Hazel’s parents, especially her mother, expressed her happiness with her behavior, praising her for her excellent behavior. Recalling the exceptional event, Julia praised her daughter and made fun of their arguments on her appearance and her self-assured refusal to apply eyeliner, remarking, “That girl is unique.”The innocence really is so lovely.
When fans saw pictures of the young lady on her father’s arm, they complimented Hazel’s looks and labeled her pretty, but they also made note of the physical differences between Julia and Hazel. “She’s lovely but you’d never guess who her mom is…they really are not alike at all,” a supporter commented.
Another person said something like, “She doesn’t look anything like her Mum.” While some people stated that Hazel resembles her father more than Julia, others pointed out that the two are not the same. Even while many people thought Hazel and Julia didn’t look identical, many still complimented the 19-year-old on her good looks.
A Stranger Sat Next to Me While My Dying Husband Was in the Hospital and Told Me to Put a Hidden Camera in His Ward to Uncover a Truth
Diana was painfully preparing herself to say goodbye to her dying husband in the hospital. While she was struggling to process that he had only a few weeks left to live, a stranger approached and whispered the jolting words: “Set up a hidden camera in his ward… you deserve to know the truth.”
I never thought my world would end in a hospital corridor. The doctor’s words echoed through my skull like a death knell: “Stage four cancer… metastasized… he’s got a few weeks to live.”
The diagnosis shattered the future I’d planned with Eric. Fifteen years of marriage reduced to a handful of days. The golden band on my finger felt suddenly heavy, weighted with memories of better times: our first dance, morning coffees shared in comfortable silence, and the way he’d stroke my hair when I was sad.

My stomach churned as I watched other families passing by. Some were crying, some laughing, and some were frozen in that peculiar limbo between hope and despair. I knew I had to get out before I shattered completely.
I stumbled through the automatic doors, the late September air hitting my face like a gentle slap. My legs carried me to a bench near the entrance, where I collapsed more than sat. The evening sun cast long, distorted shadows across the hospital grounds, mirroring the agony in my heart.
That’s when she appeared.

She wasn’t remarkable at first glance. Just an ordinary nurse in her late 40s, wearing navy scrubs, with tired eyes that held something.
Her silver-streaked hair was pulled back in a bun, and her shoes were the sensible kind worn by someone who spent long hours on their feet. She sat beside me without asking, her presence both intrusive and oddly calming.
“Set up a hidden camera in his ward,” she whispered. “He’s not dying.”
The words hit me like ice water. “Excuse me? My husband is dying. The doctors confirmed it. How dare you—”

“Seeing is believing.” She turned to face me fully. “I work nights here. I see things. Things that don’t add up. Trust me on this… you deserve to know the truth.”
Before I could respond, she stood and walked away, disappearing through the hospital doors like a phantom, leaving me with nothing but questions.
That night, I lay awake in the bed, my mind racing. The stranger’s words played on repeat, competing with memories of Eric’s diagnosis day. How he’d gripped my hand as the doctor delivered the news, and how his face had crumpled in despair.

What did she mean by ‘He’s not dying’? The thought seemed impossible, yet that spark of doubt wouldn’t die. By morning, I’d ordered a small camera online with overnight delivery, my hands shaking as I entered my credit card information.
I slipped into his room while Eric was getting his routine scan the next day.
My hands trembled as I positioned the tiny camera among the roses and lilies in the vase on the windowsill. Each movement felt like a betrayal, but something deeper pushed me forward.
“I’m sorry,” I whispered, though I wasn’t sure if I was apologizing to Eric or myself.

An hour later, Eric was back in bed, looking pale and drawn. His hospital gown made him seem smaller somehow, and more vulnerable. “Where were you?” he asked weakly.
“Just getting some coffee,” I lied. “How was the scan?”
He winced as he shifted in bed, the sheets rustling softly. “Exhausting. The pain’s getting worse. I just need to rest.”
I nodded, squeezing his hand. “Of course. I’ll let you sleep.”

That evening, after making sure Eric was settled for the night, I went home and sat on my bed. The laptop’s blue glow illuminated my face as I accessed the camera feed, my heart pounding so hard I could feel it in my throat.
For hours, nothing happened. Eric slept, nurses came and went, and I began to feel foolish for listening to a stranger.
Then, at 9 p.m., everything changed.
The ward door opened, and a woman entered. She was tall, confident, and wearing a sleek leather coat. Her perfectly styled dark hair caught the light as she approached Eric’s bed, and what happened next made my blood run cold.
Eric, my supposedly “DYING” husband, sat up straight. No struggle. No pain. He seemed happy. The kind of happiness that seemed out of place on the face of a dying man.

He swung his legs over the side of the bed and stood, pulling her into an embrace that looked anything but weak. When they kissed, I felt my wedding ring burn against my finger like a painful sting.
My heart shattered as I watched them talk, although the camera didn’t capture the audio, their body language was intimate and familiar.
She handed him some papers, which he carefully tucked under his mattress. They looked like they were planning something big, and I needed to know what.

The next morning, I returned to Eric’s room, my heart heavy with the secret I wasn’t supposed to know. He was back in character — pale, weak, struggling to sit up.
“Morning, sweetheart,” he rasped, reaching for the glass of water with trembling hands. “Bad night. The pain… it’s getting worse.”
I wanted to scream and hold him by the collar for answers. Instead, I smiled, the expression feeling like broken glass on my face. “I’m sorry to hear that. Anything I can do?”
He shook his head, and I watched him perform his role perfectly. How many times had I cried myself to sleep believing this act? How many nights had I prayed for a miracle while he was probably planning something with his secret lover?

I didn’t go home that evening. Hidden in the parking lot, I waited, my phone ready to record the truth. I knew his mistress would visit.
Sure enough, the woman in the leather coat appeared, moving through the hospital with the confidence of someone who belonged there.
This time, I quietly followed her, keeping just close enough to hear.
Their voices drifted through the ward’s partially open door. “Everything’s arranged,” she said, her tone businesslike. “Once you’re declared dead, the insurance money will be transferred offshore. We can start our new life.”

Eric’s response was eager and delighted. “That’s awesome, Victoria. Dr. Matthews came through perfectly. Cost me a fortune to get him to fake the diagnosis, but it was worth it. A few more days of this act, and we’re free. Diana won’t suspect a thing. She’s already planning my funeral.”
“The mourning widow whose husband is very much alive!” Victoria chuckled softly.
“You should have seen her face when she visited me today. So concerned and so loving. It’s almost sad, poor thing!” Eric laughed.
“She was always dumb,” Victoria replied, and I heard the smirk in her voice. “But that’s what made her perfect for this. Once you’re ‘dead,’ she’ll get the insurance payout, and we’ll transfer it all before she knows what hit her. Then it’s just you and me, darling.”

The casual cruelty of their words cut deeper than any sharp blade. Fifteen years of marriage reduced to a con job. Agony filled my eyes, but it wasn’t the time for tears.
It was time for payback.
I recorded everything on my phone, my mind already forming a plan. They wanted to play games? Fine. I could play games too.
The next day, I made calls. Lots of calls. To family, friends, coworkers — anyone who’d ever cared about Eric.
My voice broke at just the right moments as I delivered the news: “His condition has worsened dramatically. The doctors say it’s time to say goodbye. Please come today. He’d want you all here.”

By evening, Eric’s room was packed. His parents stood by his bed, his mother sobbing quietly into a handkerchief. Colleagues murmured condolences. Friends from college shared memories of better days.
Eric played his part, looking appropriately weak and grateful for the support, though I could see panic beginning to creep into his eyes as more people arrived.
I waited until the room was full before stepping forward. My hands weren’t shaking anymore. “Before we say our final goodbyes,” I announced, my eyes boring into Eric’s, “there’s something you all need to see. My dear husband, bless his ‘dying’ soul, has been keeping a huge secret from all of us…”
Eric’s eyes widened. “Diana, what are you doing?”

I connected my laptop to the room’s TV screen. The footage began to play: Eric, very much alive, embracing his mistress, Victoria. Then, the phone recording of their conversation about faking his death, bribing Dr. Matthews, and stealing the insurance money.
The room erupted in chaos.
His mother’s sobs turned to screams of rage. “How could you do this to us? To your wife?”
His father had to be held back by two of Eric’s brothers. Victoria chose that moment to arrive, stopping dead in the doorway as she realized their plan had crumbled to dust.

The security arrived, followed by police. I watched as they led Eric away in handcuffs, his protests falling on deaf ears. Dr. Matthews was also arrested, and his medical license was suspended pending investigation. Victoria tried to slip away but didn’t make it past the elevator.
I filed for divorce the very next day and returned to that bench outside the hospital, hoping to meet the thoughtful stranger who’d saved me from dealing with the biggest betrayal of my life.
The same woman who’d warned me sat down beside me, this time with a small smile.

“Thank you,” I said, watching the sunset paint the sky in shades of endings and beginnings. “You saved me from a different kind of grief.”
“I overheard them one night during my rounds. Couldn’t let them destroy your life. Sometimes the worst diseases aren’t the ones that kill you. They’re the ones that silently grow in the hearts of those we love, feeding on our trust until there’s nothing left.”

I lost my husband, but not to cancer. I lost him to his greed and lies. But in losing him, I found something more valuable: my truth, my strength, and the knowledge that, sometimes, the kindness of strangers can save us from the cruelty of those we love most.
As I drove home that evening, my wedding ring sat in my pocket like a small, heavy reminder of everything I’d lost and everything I’d gained.
The setting sun painted the sky in brilliant oranges and reds, and for the first time in weeks, I felt like I could breathe again. Sometimes, the end of one story is just the beginning of another.
