IN HER latest movie role Julia Roberts goes head-to-head in a swearing match with co-star Meryl Streep.
But in real-life Roberts is far more discreet, telling People magazine she has only sworn once in front of her kids – when a bad driver cut her off.
"In the nine years of being a mother, I've only done that one time, and it brought all of us to a screeching halt," Roberts said at the New York premiere of August: Osage County.
"It was a traffic thing," she said. "Somebody cut me off, and I was like, 'f***!' It was dangerous. The children and I could have been hurt. Then I told them, 'Mommy is so sorry,' and we all just kept on going. We all recovered!"
Roberts, 46, has three kids with her husband of 11 years, Danny Moder, 44.
She plays Streep’s daughter in August: Osage County and the two engage in profanity-laden conversation at the dinner table.
As part of her publicity for the film she also appeared on David Letterman. She scotched any rumours she might be pregnant, telling the chat show host she had no plans to have any more kids.
