Julia Roberts has always had a close bond with her family, especially her actress niece Emma Roberts. So when Emma welcomed her first child, Rhodes, with her now ex-boyfriend Garrett Hedlund in December 2020, Julia couldn't help but shower her grandnephew with love and affection. However, Julia isn't the only famous face in Rhodes' life. Country music star Tim McGraw also plays an important role as Rhodes' godfather.

Tim's friendship with Garrett goes way back, forming a strong bond after working together on the films Friday Night Lights and Country Strong. The two actors quickly became close, sharing their experiences as fathers and enjoying each other's company.

It was during the filming of Friday Night Lights, where Tim played Garrett's abusive father, that Garrett got a glimpse of Tim's excellent parenting skills. Over the years, their friendship only grew stronger, with Garrett witnessing Tim's daughters grow up from a young age.

When Emma became pregnant, Garrett wasted no time in calling Tim to share the news. Without hesitation, Tim declared himself as Rhodes' godfather, cementing their bond even further. How could Garrett argue with that?

Emma and Garrett had announced their pregnancy in August 2020, after her mother accidentally spilled the secret on social media.

Despite their breakup in January, the couple has maintained a friendly and respectful relationship, prioritizing their son's well-being above all else.

Julia, Tim, and Garrett may be celebrities, but when it comes to family and friendship, they prove that fame doesn't matter. They are just like any other doting relatives, cherishing their loved ones and creating a supportive environment for Rhodes to thrive in.
