Sheree Murphy says her new role in Neighbours is part of a plan to relaunch her acting career now her children are at school.
Sheree debuts as English businesswoman Dakota Davies in Neighbours tomorrow, a six-week role that signifies a new beginning for her career. Sheree has been busy raising four children with her husband, recently retired Australian football star Harry Kewell.
Sheree told What's on TV: "It's nice to be doing something that I love doing and I'm very lucky, very fortunate, I've got my family life, I've got four kids, I've got my husband and I've kind of put my career on the back-burner just to bring up my family and follow my husband's dreams, so to be actually working myself... it's so nice to be back doing something for myself."
Former Emmerdale and Hollyoaks star Sheree is looking forward to 'launching into work a bit more'.
"Today I've come down from, we live near Manchester and all the kids are at school and Harry's doing the school run and he's doing the dinner tonight," she said. "It's just nice to be doing something for myself, I've always been very independant, I've always earned my own money... But obviously my job for the past few years has been to be a mum, so it's nice just being back out there and doing what I love doing."
