Rose Matafeo is thinking about retiring. She’s just bought her first home, in London, where the Kiwi comedian has lived for almost a decade. “I’m a homeowner. I never thought I would ever own a home. My parents don’t own a home, so I beat them,” she says, with a laugh.
She might take up gardening as she ponders what she’ll do now that Starstruck, her BAFTA-nominated sitcom, has wrapped up after three seasons. “At what other point of my life am I going to basically be able to live a truly semi-retired life in the middle of my life when I can enjoy it? But also I am available for all jobs and castings if anyone is reading this,” she says.
