Julia Roberts continued: “One day, Coretta called my mother, and asked If her children could attend school, because they failed to find a place to accept them,” due to the racial segregation in the United States in the XNUMXs.
"My mom definitely agreed, and that's how they all became friends," she added.
Julia Roberts' comments came after making headlines in recent days, following what "Friends" star Matthew Perry revealed, in his new book, about the secrets of his relationship with her in the mid-nineties and the reason for its end.
