How does Julia Roberts spend her epic US$250 million net worth? Returning to romcoms in Ticket to Paradise with George Clooney, the star splurges on luxury travel, mansions and Mercedes
- The Notting Hill and Pretty Woman star has had homes in Hawaii and New York, and owns several houses in California and New Mexico
- She has long kept fit with trainer Kathy Kaehler, who also works with Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Aniston and Jennifer Lopez – but did she really insure her smile for US$30 million?
The romcom queen is set to light up the screen again after two decades away from the genre. Julia Roberts will appear in the upcoming Ticket to Paradise alongside George Clooney, with the pair playing a divorced couple trying to stop their daughter from repeating their mistake of rushing to get married.
Explaining her absence from romcoms since the early 2000s, the 54-year-old Notting Hill star told The New York Times, “People sometimes misconstrue the amount of time that’s gone by that I haven’t done a romantic comedy as my not wanting to do one. If I had read something that I thought was that Notting Hill level of writing or My Best Friend’s Wedding level of madcap fun, I would do it … they didn’t exist until this movie.”
Her past choices of films have served her well, bringing her a fortune of some US$250 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. But how does she enjoy her riches?
Multimillion-dollar homes
Like her career, Roberts’ property portfolio is varied. Her various homes are spread among some of the most desirable places in the US, from Hawaii and San Francisco to New York.
Her latest purchase is a century-old Victorian Revival-style house in the heart of San Francisco, bought in 2020. Worth US$8.3 million, the five-storey home is spread over 6,200 sq ft, has five bedrooms with bay windows, 4.5 bathrooms, a wine room, an outdoor dining space and a garden, per New York Post.
