'It is so lovely being back': Rose Byrne says baby Rocco will celebrate his first Christmas in Sydney... as she arrives Down Under with partner Bobby Cannavale

She jetted to her Australian homeland last month ahead of her role in the Sydney Theatre Company's stage production of Speed-the-Plow.

And Rose Byrne, 37, couldn't be happier to be spending time Down Under with her actor partner Bobby Cannavale and their nine-month-old son Rocco. 

'It is so lovely being back. We are just enjoying it so much being home with the family and friends,' she gushed to the Daily Telegraph this week.

Confirming that Rocco will enjoy his first ever Christmas in Australia, the Bridesmaids star added: 'It's been great to be here with our son.'

Rose recently opened up about her motherhood experience to Nine, saying she hates missing out on Rocco's night-time routine due to her acting schedule with the Sydney Theatre Company.

She did however explain that she was lucky to have her days freed up to spend with the youngster.

'I think the best advice I've been given about motherhood is that it's just messy. There's no way to do it that's perfect,' Rose explained.

'And it's also the best thing I've ever done in my life,' she gushed. 

Rose and Bobby, who welcomed their first child into the world in February, made a splash on the Australian social scene on Wednesday night's GQ Men Of The Year awards on Wednesday night at the Ivy Ballroom.
