Julia Robert’s Frugal Intentions

4th May 2007 Print
Julia Roberts plans to save money by dressing her unborn child in hand-me downs and charity shop clothes. The 'Pretty Woman' actress - who is expecting her third child with cameraman husband Danny Moder in the autumn – is determined to be more frugal after splashing out when twins Phinnaeus and Hazel were born in November 2004.

A source is quoted by Britain's Daily Express newspaper: "Julia spent a lot when the twins were born.

"She kept most of what she needed from Phinnaeus and Hazel. The rest she picked up from friends and she has even been in a few charity shops."

The 39-year-old actress was said to be delighted when she discovered she was pregnant again. Julia admitted she had almost "giving up hope" of conceiving again after trying for over a year.

She said: "We had almost given up hope. But nature took its course soon after we stopped looking at the calendar and taking temperatures."

The Oscar-winning star - who married Moder in 2002 - previously revealed becoming a mother has helped her grow as a person.

She told US chat show host Oprah Winfrey: "I definitely feel that I've expanded as a human being. I have more empathy and more compassion, I think, because I feel so blessed on a level that I can't even wrap my mind around really."
