After a cancelled engagement and a child with an ex: Emma Roberts marries her sweetheart
The actress, who has experienced quite a few publicized ups and downs in her romantic life, married her partner of four years, actor Cody John, this past weekend. She walked to the altar holding the hand of her 5-year-old son from her previous relationship with actor Garrett Hedlund.
Actress Emma Roberts (35) grew up in Hollywood and has experienced her fair share of ups and downs in her romantic life, but it seems she is now ready to settle down. This past weekend, the star married her partner of four years, actor Cody John, in an intimate ceremony in Idaho surrounded by close friends and family—including, of course, Emma's aunt, actress Julia Roberts.
Roberts and John began dating in 2022, revealing their relationship when John posted a photo of them kissing on Instagram. Two years later, he proposed, which Roberts announced in July 2024 with a picture of her engagement ring and the caption: 'Putting this here before my mom tells everyone.' This nod to her mother, Kelly Cunningham, refers to a 2020 incident where Cunningham revealed her daughter was pregnant by former partner Garrett Hedlund long before the actress planned to share the news herself—an event that led to Roberts briefly blocking her mother on social media.
Today, Roberts is the mother of 5-year-old Rhodes, who even accompanied her to the altar. Roberts has a well-documented history of turbulent relationships. In 2012, she began dating Evan Peters, her co-star in 'American Horror Story.' Their relationship frequently made headlines under grim circumstances; in 2013, Roberts was arrested in Canada on suspicion of domestic violence following a heated argument at a hotel that left the actor with a bloody nose and bruises. Despite the arrest, the couple remained together, breaking up and reconciling multiple times before their final split in 2019.
