Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts is “a genuinely and deeply happy person”, and credits husband Danny Moder for much of her success.
The 47-year-old actress, who has 10-year-old twins Hazel and Phinnaeus and son Henry, eight, with husband, feels very fortunate to have “the natural chemistry of joy”.
“I am a genuinely and deeply happy person, which, as life goes on, you realise what great fortune that is, to feel like you just have the natural chemistry of joy,” she said.
Roberts is known for her trademark smile, but said she can’t explain it.
“I don’t think it’s healthy or productive to self-analyse. The way a person smiles is the way they smile. It sort of becomes this thing: ‘Let’s see that smile.’ I can smile or I cannot smile, but I can’t perform.
“I don’t know if I would have succeeded in some of the efforts that I made if he hadn’t been in such close physical proximity to me. There’s something about having the safest place in the world for you in the same room.
