Words by Erin Schmidt

Hollywood icon and ‘the actor’s actor” with over 700 features with Academy Award and multiple Golden Globe nominations, Eric Roberts has earned his right to be called a legend in his own time. I had the distinct pleasure of interviewing Eric and Eliza Roberts for the “Living a Bella Vida Podcast” (on YouTube and Spotify), and was so impressed with how kind, genuine and truly in love they both were. Here’s some of my interview with Eric and Eliza and you won’t want to miss the full interview at youtube.com/@bellavidamagazine
Erin: “Thank you both for joining me today.”
Eric: “It’s great to be with you.”
Erin: ”I was going to say that, Eliza, you have been so wonderful in helping me set this up and I knew I was going to love you because you’re a redhead too. So, I knew you’d be awesome.”
Eliza: “Thank you.”
Erin: “It’s really incredible that you guys have been married for over 30 years, which is quite a feat in Hollywood. Tell us a little about how your marriage has evolved over the years.”
Eric: “After you (looking at Eliza).”
Eliza: “Great,” she says chuckling. “To be married a long time, no matter what world or what business you are in, is a feat. It’s quite something, and philosophically, hopefully you segway into a friendship. There is something really amazing that happens where you just look up and go. ‘wait , are we at the over half our lives point?’ And, we met randomly, but there were a million things that almost brought us together in the years prior, almost since birth.”
Erin: “Oh wow.”
Eliza: “When you are with the same person, all day everyday, for thousands of days, you realize they are as much you, as you are them. And you become so interwoven. You think for each other, you talk for each other and you dress for each other. And you don’t mean to, it just happens. And when it goes well, it’s a nice thing.”
Erin: “aw. That’s great. And you both have had a long career in acting, but Eric didn’t you start acting very young?”
