Julia Roberts and Liam Neeson have a pattern of falling for the same men for years after years of being together. They are both successful, and having a pattern like this won’t make anyone stop loving them.
Julia Roberts has been a working actor since 1987. When she was 19, Roberts filmed her second-ever film, “Satisfaction.” While filming, she fell for a much older man: 35-year-old Liam Neeson. In spite of the 16-year age gap between them, the two reportedly got serious and moved in together in Venice, California.
An episode of “The Kitty Kelley Files” — a series highlighting New York Times best-selling author Kitty Kelley’s knowledge of celebrities — focused on Roberts and gave a bit of biased commentary on why Roberts would date and fall for Neeson. In the episode, Kelley said Roberts was “someone who never really had a father figure that she could look up to and admire.” The episode also reported that the two moved in together just two weeks after meeting on-set. Kelley also gave a reported timeframe of their relationship — 1988 (the year “Satisfaction” came out) until 1990. “Liam Neeson was great with Julia Roberts,” the writer said. “She was new to the business, he was accomplished, he was successful — but this would start a pattern with other leading men.” After her relationship with Neeson ended, Roberts went on to date co-stars such as Dylan McDermott, Kiefer Sutherland, and Matthew Perry.
