Julia Roberts is no Runaway Bride – but she and hubby Danny Moder just might have Hollywood's most unique marriage, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
Handling Marriage Their Own Way

Julia Roberts has been working more since stepping back from hands-on parenting duties.
"People point to Julia and Danny as a model Hollywood union, but the truth is, they really do things their own way," said a source who's known the couple for many years.
Now that they have a lot less hands-on parenting to do – their 20-year-old twins, Hazel and Phinnaeus, are in college, and only 18-year-old Henry remains at home – Roberts, 57, "has been spreading her wings and working a lot more than she had been when being a mom took up almost all of her time," said the source.
Different Work Approaches

A source said Danny Moder does not follow Roberts to every project as he once did.

A source said her cinematographer husband, 56, "doesn't follow her to every job the way he did when they were newlyweds and had young kids. Danny has a totally different approach to work, and he relishes his downtime, his hobbies and his friendships that are completely outside the industry."
"Julia and Danny spend a lot of time apart, and that's just not going to work for every couple. But it works for them," the insider added.
