"When I left, I wasn’t too sure what I wanted to do. I just knew I wanted to have a break...I was 21 and I’m 26 now, so it’s completely different. "I’ve matured and I’ve got a little girl, which makes you grow up a lot. I see it completely differently now I’ve come back. “When I was younger I enjoyed it but didn’t really appreciate what a good job I had. When you go away for a while it can make you really appreciate it."
The actress said she feels much more mature having had a child, and is ready to dedicate herself to acting:
"I think motherhood matures you and makes you a happier person. I absolutely love being a mum, it’s nice to come home from work and see them all excited. "I think motherhood gives you a purpose. I’m a lot happier now."Could this mean Rosie is back on the cobbles for good? We'll have to wait and see.
