She is the Australian actress who revealed her bitter custody dispute in a tell-all interview last month.

And Melissa George, 40, has revealed she is still a doting mother with an adorable photo of her sons Raphael and Solal's baby shoes dipped in bronze for posterity.

The former Home and Away star is locked in a much-publicised battle with her ex, French entrepreneur Jean-David Blanc, over the custody of their two children but that hasn't stopped the actress with getting on with the business of motherhood.

In her tearful tell-all interview in Channel 7's Sunday Night, the 40-year-old actress claimed that she was attacked by Blanc in their Paris apartment in September last year – allegations which Jean-David has denied.

'It started with him on top of me with my arms locked above my head. I used my feet to get him off me... I wet the bed. I wet the floor,' Melissa told Sunday Night.

'I just went into a crazy moment of like, 'I'm in deep sh**.'' And so I just tried to fight for myself which made him more angry, which made me more angry.

'He pushed me into the door, and then struck my face and I hit the wall and fell on the floor and I was out.'

The former The Good Wife star was admitted to Cochin Hospital after presenting to a local police station with facial bruising and complaints of pain.

With the couple's relationship now in tatters, a much publicised custody battle has ensued, with the pair now sharing custody in France.

However, the actress has claimed that she is trapped in Paris and unable to work there due to Visa issues, nor outside of France without leaving Raphael and Solal behind.

Late last month, the star also spoke to KIIS FM's Kyle Sandilands and Jackie 'O' Henderson and revealed text messages she received from her ex-partner telling her to stop breastfeeding their young son.

'You know I just received a text message (from her ex-partner)… because I'm still breastfeeding my son,' Melissa told the radio stars.

'It said: "As I told you and as I tried to explain to you, you must stop breastfeeding my son Solal, otherwise you'll destroy him."

"He wakes up in the middle of the night and asks for breast, not for milk, what do you want me to do? Unless you put your boobs in a bag I don't see any other solution."
