Julia Roberts has, allegedly, decided to have a trial separation with Danny Moder after 18 years of marriage.
According to Globe, Julia Roberts and Moder’s relationship has been shaky for quite some time. So, it’s unsurprising that they’ve decided to have a trial separation.
However, the tabloid’s headline appears to be misleading. After all, they also said that Roberts and Moder would be forced to separate because of the actress’s work commitments.
Julia Roberts, Danny Moder looking forward to some time apart
This means that Roberts and Moder wouldn’t be going on a trial separation just like what the tabloid is claiming. But it is possible for them to temporarily separate because of the actress’s job.
“This shoot will be a month or two at least, and that’s a good thing for Julia and Danny since they both badly need a break from the stress and tension. Julia is a strong, opinionated, not to mention loud person, and she’s been leading Danny by the leash for a long, long time, and he’s tired of it. It’s always her way or else there’s a fight,” the source said.
Julia Roberts, Danny Moder split years ago
The insider also claimed that Roberts and Moder already went their separate ways years ago. But the actress allowed Moder to return home.
Unfortunately, the source insisted that Julia Roberts and Moder’s relationship never improved. And more issues, allegedly, surfaced between the two recently.
“It’s no secret they’ve been butting heads about her wanting to move to San Francisco, but they’ve done themselves no favors by spending every day together and getting in each other’s way. It’s resulted in a lot of nitpicking and tension, and she’s constantly reminding him that she’s the breadwinner, not him,” the source said.
The insider concluded their dubious claims by saying that Roberts and Moder both want their marriage to work out. But they also, allegedly, know that they need some time apart.
Rumors debunked
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt.
There is no proof that Julia Roberts and Moder’s marriage is on the rocks.
