One name in the crowd stood out more than most. Julia Roberts, Emma's famous aunt, flew in for the big day along with her husband Danny Moder,and by most accounts she was visibly emotional watching her niece get married. That's not a small detail, and it's worth saying twice,because Julia's presence turned this from a private family wedding into a genuine Hollywood moment. Roberts and John kept their romance quiet for most of its run,going Instagram official back in December 2022 before announcing their engagement in July 2024, when Emma posted a photo flashing her ring with the caption about beating her mom to the punch.
Roberts has a four year old son named Rhodes from a previous relationship with actor Garrett Hedlund, and she's spoken before about wanting to keep that part of her life steady before bringing someone new into it.John, also an actor, known for his role in Wu Tang: An American Saga,has been by her side through a chunk of that process already, showing up in birthday posts and quiet Instagram tributes over the past few years.The couple held a rehearsal dinner the night before, on Friday, and representatives for both Roberts and John hadn't responded to requests for comment as of Sunday.
