Julia Roberts shares RARE throwback baby photo of her son Henry to celebrate his 17th birthday

Julia Roberts joyfully shared a rare throwback photo of her son Henry on Tuesday in celebration of his 17th birthday.

Henry was pictured as a baby, looking curiously at something off camera as his mother proudly held him up and beamed at him.

‘I can’t believe this baby is now a 17-year-old miracle!’ the 56-year-old actress gushed in her caption. “Happy birthday, beautiful Henry.”

She shares Henry and her 19-year-old twins Hazel and Phinneas with her second husband, cinematographer Daniel Moder.

The Pretty Woman star rarely posts photos of her children, and hasn’t done so since November, when the twins announced their last birthday.

For the occasion, she uploaded a black and white photo of herself sitting cross-legged on the floor with baby Hazel and Phinneas on her lap.

“There are no words to express the joy, fun and wild rush of living together,” the mother of three heartwarmingly wrote in her caption.

Julia and Daniel will celebrate their 22nd wedding anniversary on July 4, after tying the knot at her ranch in New Mexico on Independence Day 2002.

In an interview a few months after their twentieth anniversary, Julia gave a hint as to why their marriage has proven so enduring.

“I always say the same thing and I stand by it,” the Hollywood superstar explained E! News. “It’s making out. Lots of making out.’

She gave the interview alongside her Ticket To Paradise co-star George Clooney, who joked: ‘I make out with Danny too.’

During the same promotional tour, Julia and George appeared on the Today show where she gave her reflections on motherhood.

Julia explained her theory that children “have chosen us in this moment to be their stewards and their shepherds in this life experience.”

She met her husband “when I was ready,” and “you call these children into your lives when we are ready to be the best partner with them.”

The Eat Pray Love star confessed, “Sometimes I get gripped by the fear of screwing up, and sometimes I just say to my kids, ‘So today, as a mother, can we just take that off? the planks? Because I screwed up.”

In 2022 she spoke to the New York Times magazine about taking fewer acting jobs after welcoming her children into the world.

“It wasn’t designed that way. Even if I couldn’t find something I was interested in. “I was surprised at how quickly the years seemed to pass,” she said.

“It’s also the mathematical equation of my husband’s work schedule and the kids’ school schedule and summer vacation. It’s not just, oh, I think I want to do this,” she added.

“I take great pride in being home with my family and considering myself a homemaker,” said the August: Osage County actress.
