Emma Roberts and Garrett Hedlund put the spotlight on co-parenting as they came together to celebrate their son Rhodes’ milestone birthday in a memorable way.
The former couple reunited to treat their son to a special trip to the Universal Resort in Orlando, marking his 5th anniversary with a family getaway filled with theme park adventures and shared moments.
Roberts, 34, shared highlights of the trip on Instagram on January 16, giving fans a glimpse into the experience.
