Julia Roberts, the Oscar winner, recently took to Instagram to share a heartwarming message about the passing of her and husband Danny Moder’s beloved dog, Myrtle. The couple had the joy of spending 19 wonderful years with Myrtle before saying goodbye to their furry friend. In a touching tribute, Julia posted a picture of Myrtle sitting on a blanket outside, with the caption, “Our Myrtle. A Legend. 2006-2025.”
Danny Moder, Julia’s husband, also expressed his sadness over Myrtle’s passing with a lighthearted message on Instagram. He fondly remembered Myrtle as the definition of Fierce Loyalty, despite a little mishap involving the pizza man. The post included a close-up shot of Myrtle’s face, along with the caption, “RIP Myrtle…aka Myrtle Von Mertzenberger.” Myrtle had made several appearances on Danny’s social media, and the couple’s kids, Hazel, Phinnaeus, and Henry, were close with the pup as well.
The impact of their love for their furry friends is evident in Julia and Danny’s lives. Julia has shown her support for dog rescue organizations like Frankie Lola and Friends, using her social media platform to raise awareness about the importance of finding loving homes for pups in need. The couple’s family dynamic, including their love for animals, shines through in their social media posts and interactions with their pets. Through both joyful moments and heartbreaking goodbyes, the Roberts-Moder family continues to cherish the memories made with their beloved dog, Myrtle.
