She’s just a niece, standing in front of an aunt, telling her how much she loves her.
Emma Roberts couldn’t let her aunt Julia Roberts’ 59th year go unrecognized, penning a festive tribute to her dad Eric Roberts’ sister.
“Happy birthday Aunt Julia,” Emma captioned an Oct. 28 Instagram post, alongside a crown emoji. “I love you beyond!!”
Accompanying the heartfelt note was a photo cute enough to make you scream, one in which Emma smiled wide as Julia held her close. The niece-aunt duo looked a matching set in complementary white outfits and golden blonde hair.
But the Scream alum’s post did more than just serves as birthday well wishes—it also garnered a thousand words from people remembering (and also learning) the pair were even related.
“I will never get over the fact they are related,” one user commented, while another added, “i was today years old when i found @emmaroberts & @juliaroberts we’re [sic] related.”
Many also referenced a recent line from Emma’s character Madison on the American Horror Story in which the witch, in an utterly meta moment, said, “Just like a Julia Roberts movie. I love her.”
