Despite the fact that Emma Roberts is only in her late-20s as of the time of this writing, she has already put together an extremely impressive career for herself. In fact, we would argue that she has shown so much potential that it seems entirely possible that she will become a megastar in the future.
Despite all of the success Emma Roberts has enjoyed already, the fact remains that she hasn’t starred in any blockbusters as of yet, which has allowed her to hold on to some level of anonymity. Even though Emma hasn’t become one of the paparazzi’s favorite stars to harass as of yet, that doesn’t mean that some information about her isn’t out there already. With that in mind, it is time to get to this list of 15 things fans don’t know about Emma Roberts’ private life.
15 Family Connections
Far from the first famous Roberts, Emma’s father Eric is a much-celebrated character actor and her aunt Julia was America’s sweetheart for many years. While that information is far from a secret, most people don’t realize that Emma’s grandmother Betty Lou Bredemus was an extremely respected acting coach.
14 Smile Repair
Due to the fact that actors spend so much of their time in front of cameras, both while filming and taking part in photoshoots, having a great smile is a huge asset for them. Unfortunately for Emma Roberts, as a youngster, she sucked her thumb until the age of 12 which is why she felt compelled to wear Invisalign braces to fix her teeth as an adult.
13 Just Peachy
Considering how busy Emma Roberts’ acting schedule is, you may think that she doesn’t have time for very much else. As it turns out, she likes to spend some of her time off cooking and baking. Unfortunately, even though she has professed her interest in writing a cookbook, that has happened yet which is a shame since she claims to make a delicious peach pie.
12 Her Former Boyfriend Wasn’t Interested At first
First introduced when they co-starred in a little-seen movie called Adult World, once filming came to an end Emma Roberts and Evan Peters began dating. However, according to what Roberts said about Peters during a Chelsea Lately interview, “he literally didn't speak to me the entire movie”. Evidently bad at flirting, Emma said she looked at Evan like she “had something in (her) eye” so “he thought (she) was so weird”.
11 Streamlining
As anyone who pays attention to the world of celebrities should already know, stars tend to have a lot of people vying for their attention and love. Evidently aware of how toxic that can be, in the past, Emma Roberts has spoken about purging friends in order to make sure the people in her life are supportive and loyal.
10 Spread Too Thin
By the time Emma Roberts finished high school, she’d already accomplished more in the acting world then many other performers can even dream of. Still, in 2011 she decided that she wanted to get more education so she began attending Sarah Lawrence College. However, it only took Emma one semester to figure out that she wanted to focus on her acting career so she left college behind which is a decision she doesn’t regret.
9 Her Run-In With The Law
Back in 2013, Emma Roberts and Evan Peters had begun co-starring in American Horror Story together and from the outside looking in, everything seemed to be going great. Then, Roberts was arrested for domestic violence while the pair were staying in a Montreal hotel. Overheard loudly arguing, the police were called on the couple and when they arrived Peters had a bloody nose and bite marks but he ultimately refused to press charges.
8 Pre-Bed Precaution
Someone who clearly hasn’t been a kid in many years, Emma Roberts may be all grown up but that doesn’t mean that she has left all parts of her childhood behind her. After all, when Roberts was 24-years-old she revealed that she still looks under the bed every night before she gets under the covers.
7 Inspiration
Given the fact that Emma Roberts’ father is a successful actor, you may have assumed that she joined the business in large part due to his example. However, in reality, it was the influence of her aunt Julia that led to Emma becoming an actor. Speaking about this, Emma recalled feeling like the set of Erin Brockovich was like a “summer camp” as she hid in Julia’s makeup trailer as a kid.
6 Engagement
As we touched on earlier in this list, in 2013 Emma Roberts was arrested for a domestic violence incident that involved Evan Peters. Despite that, 5 months later in early 2014 Peters got down on one knee and popped the big question to Roberts who said yes. In the weeks that followed the pair confirmed their engagement and she showed off her engagement ring.
