At the time, it was reported that Julia wore a homemade T-shirt which read ‘a low Vera’ during Vera and Danny’s split.

Denying that their relationship was the cause of Danny’s split from Vera in an interview with Oprah, the Notting Hill star explained: “He sorted his whole thing out, separate and apart from me. And I sorted my life out, separate and apart from him. I think that’s the only reason we were able to ultimately fall in love with each other and be together.”
When she was asked about the T-shirt, she said: “You know what that was about? It was private. I stand by my T-shirt.”

Their engagement and marriage
Julia and Danny’s relationship has always been very low-key, so much so that rather than wearing a lavish engagement ring, Julia opted for a simple emerald ring that was reportedly purchased at a shopping centre for around £3,000.
The pair tied the knot in 2002 at Julia’s ranch in New Mexico, but have always kept details about their special day under wraps. According to AOL News, guests revealed that Julia wore a pink cotton dress for the ceremony, while Danny wore a ruffled shirt.

Rumors of split
Despite rumors that the pair had ended their relationship after they hadn’t been spotted together for several months, Julia shut down the reports by sharing a lovely photo of herself enjoying a holiday with her husband.
In the photo, the pair are laughing and hugging each other, and the actress wrote: “Oh Summer, thank you! You made us happy and brave. We embraced every moment of sun drenched JOY. #familytime.”
They’ve proved the rumors wrong since and look happier than ever together.
