RIP Mytlle\u2026aka Myrtle Von Mertzenberger.(sic)&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nJulia had been seen out and about with Myrtle a number of times over the year and the dog even appeared alongside the &#8216;Notting Hill&#8217; actress for her Chopard Loves Cinema campaign in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe &#8216;Money Monster&#8217; actress recently admitted she feels &#8220;lucky&#8221; to have enjoyed years of career success before starting her family.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe told Britain&#8217;s Vogue magazine: \u201cWell, I think that the luckiest aspect of my work life\/family life is that the success of my work life came earlier.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSo by the time I had the success of my family life and had a husband and children who wanted to stay home, I had been working for 18 years.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAnd so I felt that I had the luxury. I didn\u2019t have to pick one or the other.<\/p>\n<p>\nYou didn\u2019t have to make the choice. Of either\/or.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSo it was easy to pause work life to nurture my home life.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAnd so, because I have girlfriends who were having to juggle being at work and having to go into the bathroom, and you know, get out that breast pump, I sort of went through that with them by proxy. To be allowed the luxury of staying home and being with my family, I had a deep gratitude for that time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nDespite saying she loved staying at home when she was raising her kids, Julia stressed she thinks it\u2019s important her children saw her going back to work.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe added when asked if family always comes before her career: \u201cYes, of course. But then there\u2019s also something to my kids seeing that my creative life is meaningful to me.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI want them to understand that. Going outside of the house and being creative is really important and vital.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAnd it doesn\u2019t take away from my love of home. It\u2019s another level of my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/julia-roberts-beloved-dog-dies-1418961.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>17 May 2025 Julia Roberts&#8217; beloved dog has died.
