‘I just feel so safe, I suppose the word is cosy, when I’m in Australia. It’s where I grew up,’ she said.
‘I’m the happiest when I’m home. I miss it when I’m not here. I don’t feel any pressure when I’m in Australia. I don’t have to say or do or be anything. I mean, I don’t even have to wear shoes,’ the Godmothered star added.
