Julia Roberts, known for her humility and private nature, rarely shares details about her family. But her daughter Hazel recently captured public attention after making her first red-carpet appearance — a rare glimpse into Roberts’ personal world.
At just 16, Hazel accompanied her father, cinematographer Daniel Moder, to the Cannes Film Festival for his work on Flag Day, directed by Sean Penn. Though she wasn’t part of the film, “her presence instantly captured media and public interest.”
Wearing a soft yellow lace gown and black Mary Jane heels, Hazel radiated “simple elegance.” Her minimal makeup and neat ponytail highlighted her youthful charm, and many noted her striking resemblance to both parents.
Despite the attention, Roberts and Moder remain devoted to protecting their children’s privacy and ensuring a “normal upbringing despite their Hollywood surroundings.”
Roberts has said her greatest joy is motherhood, explaining that she finds fulfillment in “the everyday simplicity that keeps her grounded.” She guides her children with honesty and humility, aware of how fame and social media can distort reality — a balance she continues to maintain with quiet strength and grace.
