Roberts expecting third child

Julia Roberts is expecting her third child with her husband, cinematographer Danny Moder, her spokeswoman confirmed to People magazine today.

The baby is due this summer, Roberts’ publicist, Marcy Engelman, said in a story posted on the magazine’s website.

News of the pregnancy first appeared in the New York Post’s Page Six column.

Roberts, 39, and Moder, 37, have two-year-old twins, Hazel and Phinnaeus, who were born in November 2004. The couple were married in July 2002 at Roberts’ home in Taos, New Mexico.

Roberts won the best actress Oscar in 2001 for Erin Brockovich. Her screen hits also include Steel Magnolias and Pretty Woman.

She is also the voice of the wise spider in the film adaptation of Charlotte’s Web.

She will next be seen in the drama Charlie Wilson’s War, directed by Mike Nichols and also starring Tom Hanks, scheduled for release next year.

She made her Broadway debut this spring in a revival of Richard Greenberg’s Three Days of Rain.
