Julia Roberts fully admitted her romance with second husband Daniel Moder began when he was still married while speaking about the Dave Matthews Band during the 2024 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony in Cleveland, OH on Saturday.

‘The first time I ever danced with my husband was almost 25 years ago to a Dave Matthews Band song,’ the Oscar winner – turning 57 next Saturday – said onstage the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse.

‘And that was a winning combination as I have been swooning over my husband and this band ever since. You can clap for that – swooning. You can clap for swooning! Fans of the Dave Matthews Band? We’re not just fans. We are lifelong fans – ardent lifelong fans!’

The ceremony for the Grammy-winning ‘band that changed’ Julia’s life was livestreamed via Disney+, and it will officially air on ABC early next year.

Roberts and the 55-year-old Emmy-nominated cinematographer celebrated 22 years of wedded bliss on July 4, and they’re proud parents of 17-year-old son Henry and 19-year-old twins Hazel and Phinnaeus.

When the inseparable couple originally met in 2000 on the set of Gore Verbinski’s film The Mexican, the Kamala Harris campaigner had been in a relationship with Benjamin Bratt since 1998 and Danny had been married to Vera Steimberg since 1997.

New Idea claimed that Julia paid the Argentinian-born 51-year-old – who’s the make-up artist of Zoe Saldaña – $200K to convince her to sign divorce papers in May 2002, which was two months before their wedding in Taos, NM.

When Oprah Winfrey asked Roberts in 2003 if she caused the breakup of Moder’s marriage, she replied: ‘No. I’m an easy person to point the finger at— “She did it” — and I see that. I don’t begrudge people the easy finger-point. It just doesn’t happen to be so.’

The From Here to the Great Unknown narrator continued: ‘He sorted his whole thing out, separate and apart from me. And I sorted my life out, separate and apart from him. I think that’s the only reason we were able to ultimately fall in love with each other and be together.’

Julia and the Ezra DP have worked together on a total of eight films, most recently, Billy Ray’s dismally-reviewed 2015 crime drama Secret in Their Eyes.

Roberts’ first engagement to Flatliners co-star Kiefer Sutherland famously ended three days before their 1991 wedding, and her first marriage to four-time Grammy-winning country crooner Lyle Lovett ended in 1995 after just 21 months.

‘It all starts with Danny Moder. He is our person and, in the most beautiful way, the captain of our ship,’ the Leave the World Behind producer-star gushed on TODAY last December.

‘And it’s not, like, giving it all away to him. It’s just that for me, understanding how deeply felt life could be really started with him.’

On July 6, Julia began filming her role as a college professor with a dark secret in Luca Guadagnino’s 2025 thriller After the Hunt for Amazon MGM Studios alongside Andrew Garfield, Ayo Edebiri, and Chloë Sevigny.

And on March 11, Danny wrapped production on Jim Rash’s upcoming grieving drama Miss You, Love You starring Allison Janney and Andrew Rannells.

She added: 'And that was a winning combination as I have been swooning over my husband and this band ever since. You can clap for that - swooning. You can clap for swooning! Fans of the Dave Matthews Band? We're not just fans. We are lifelong fans - ardent lifelong fans!'
