Julia Roberts’ son Henry towers over her in NYC
Julia Roberts was spotted out with two of her three children in New York City on Friday, and her 19-year-old son appears to have literally outgrown her.
The Oscar-winning actress was pictured outside the historic Jane Hotel with Henry — who stood head and shoulders above her — the day after his 19th birthday.
Roberts was radiant in what appeared to be a black suit and a string of pearls, accessorizing with a pair of glasses as she chatted with her family members.
At one point, she wrapped her arm around his waist as they walked together.
The “Pretty Woman” actress, 58, was also joined by daughter Hazel, 21, and the screen icon’s hair stylist, Serge Normant.
Henry is attending the Pratt Institute in Manhattan, while Hazel is studying at Trinity College Dublin.
Absent from the afternoon sighting was Hazel’s twin brother, Phinnaeus — who is a student at University of California, Berkeley — and the actress’ cinematographer husband Danny Moder.
Henry is the youngest child of the “Notting Hill” star and her husband, whom she married in 2002.
The “Erin Brockovich” actress took to Instagram in November to share a rare throwback photo of the twins as they marked their milestone 21st birthday.
“These game changers, life alterers, [heart] expanders once were 1 and now are 21! That was fast,” she captioned a snapshot of the siblings in matching high chairs as toddlers. “Happy Birthday my Dears.”
And in May 2025, Moder, 57, took to Instagram with a snapshot of his grown children surrounding Roberts, captioning the Mother’s Day upload, “Mothers make the coolest stuff. Love these guys.”
In a 2022 interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Roberts confessed that despite her “dream come true” career, her fulfillment in life comes from family.
“The life that I have built with my husband, [and] the life that we’ve built with our children, that’s the best stuff,” she gushed at the time. “To come home at the end of the day, triumphantly, to them.”
