Pretty woman, pretty good advice! Julia Roberts revealed the secret to her successful 13-year marriage to cameraman Danny Moder — and it's pretty simple. The Money Monster actress gave advice during an interview with Extra's Mario Lopez on Friday, Nov. 6.

"What would be a good tip for future entertainment couples?" Lopez, 42, asked the Oscar winner.

Roberts, 48, briefly paused, and replied: "I don't think it's exclusive to entertainment couples. I wouldn't even think of us as an entertainment couple, but I don't know. Kissing."

Roberts and Moder, 46, met on set of the 2001 crime-comedy The Mexican. They married in 2002 and are parents to twins Finn and Hazel, 10, and Henry, 8. They also teamed up for Roberts' upcoming drama Secret in Their Eyes. (Moder is a cinematographer on the Billy Ray-directed movie.)

"It definitely helped me that he was there. It was nice at times that we got to go to work together and then come home together," Roberts explained. "All that work time, when you come home and go, ‘Oh, honey, how was your day?' We did all that in the day and in the car. And by the time we got home we were able to just put it away, which was really delightful."

The couple have stayed relatively quiet for years about their relationship, but the Steel Magnolias star recently called Moder the "safest place in the world." When not working, the pair are often photographed cheering on their athletic kids.

"They love playing soccer, my daughter just had her last basketball game yesterday, they won, 21 to 9. Yeah sports!" Roberts gushed to Lopez. "Then it’s a lot of school work. School is not the easy ride it was when I was in fifth grade. It’s intense."
