Betty Bredemus died in 2015 at 80 after a battle with lung cancer. She was in charge of a theater school in their home state of Georgia.
People magazine reports Julia talked about Betty in 2017, saying, "My mom worked a full-time job and raised three girls pretty much on her own. My brother [the actor Eric Roberts] is older, so he was gone and out of the house. She never showed the strain of it."
The Oscar winner is now married to Danny Moder and a mom herself — they are the parents of 18-year-old twins Hazel and Phinnaeus aka Finn, and 16-year-old Henry.
