Emma Roberts\u2019 five-year-old son had the honour of walking his mother down the aisle on her wedding day, amid the mysterious absence of her famous father Eric<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Photos from multiple US outlets show little Rhodes \u2013 who Emma, 35, shares with her ex Garrett Hedlund\u00a0\u2013 walking hand-in-hand with his mother in her wedding dress as she exchanged vows with Cody John<\/a>\u00a0last weekend.<\/p>\n

She wore a custom Monique Lhuillier\u00a0gown\u00a0in off-white for the occasion, while her son matched her in a white tuxedo. <\/p>\n

Thr latest revelation comes days after Eric, 70, issued a terse statement to the media after being noticeably absent from her nuptials<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love my daughter, always have, always will,\u201d said the\u00a0Oscar<\/a>\u00a0nominee as he addressed his absence in a statement to\u00a0Page Six<\/a>\u00a0on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is perfectly wonderful for her to celebrate however she wants,\u00a0with whomever she wants.\u201d<\/p>\n

The day after Emma and Cody said \u2018I do\u2019 in their intimate Idaho wedding, Eric was spotted over 1,000 kilometres away from where his famous daughter tied the knot.<\/p>\n

Instead, the\u00a0Runaway Train\u00a0actor was photographed leaving a Los Angeles-based gym.<\/p>\n

Several\u00a0Hollywood<\/a>\u00a0friends witnessed the wonderful ceremony including\u00a0Demi Moore<\/a>,\u00a0Kristen Stewart<\/a>\u00a0and her partner,\u00a0Dylan Eyer<\/a>, co-star Sarah Paulson, Ashley Benson and more.<\/p>\n

Emma\u2019s famous aunty, Julia, was spotted sitting in the second row with cinematographer and husband Daniel Moder.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Pretty Woman<\/a>\u00a0star was seen wearing a flowing, navy-blue polka dot dress.<\/p>\n

Eric did not provide a reason for his absence. He welcomed Emma in 1991 with actor and ex\u00a0Kelly Cunningham<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking on the\u00a0Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson\u00a0podcast in April, the Oscar nominee said his relationship with his daughter looked \u201ccomplicated through outside eyes\u201d. He, however, claimed they were not estranged.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Emma Roberts\u2019 five-year-old son had the honour of walking his mother down the aisle on her wedding day,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":839209,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[64,63,134],"class_list":["post-839208","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/839208","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=839208"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/839208\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/839209"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=839208"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=839208"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=839208"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
