Emma Roberts calls son Rhodes ‘the sweetest soul’ in honor of his third birthday
Emma Roberts celebrates her adorable son on his third birthday! The actress paid tribute to her son Rhodes Robert Hedlund on a touching day in his life.
“Happy Birthday to the sweetest soul. I love you, Rhodes! For 3! ❤️,” Roberts captioned an Instagram post, sharing a rare photo with her baby. The sweet black-and-white photo shows Roberts in profile, smiling lovingly as she holds Rhodes in her lap. On her Instagram Story, she also shared a photo of the seemingly homemade ornament, which featured a close-up of Rhodes’ face.
Roberts welcomed Rhodes in December 2020 with then-boyfriend Garrett Hedlund. In January 2022, ET confirmed that they had ended their relationship after nearly three years together. Later that year, Roberts began dating fellow actor Cody John.
Until recently, the 32-year-old actress kept Rhodes’ identity a secret. But that all changed when her mom, Kelly Cunningham, made a very modern gaffe in February by posting a photo of her face.
“When your mom posts your son’s face without asking,” Roberts wrote at the time, deciding to share the image on her page. “But you love them both, oh well.”

Earlier this week, Roberts opened up about her Christmas celebrations with Rhodes. Another photo posted to Instagram shows Rhodes on top with a tiny bow delicately placed on top of his head as he plays with a toy cash register.
She kept the caption simple, writing, “Merry Christmas 🎄.”
Back in January, a source shared with ET that Roberts and Hedlund’s relationship with their parents was going “good.”
“Her main priority is Rhodes,” the source said, “and making sure their son feels loved by both of them.”
