Born 31 December 1967 Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia
Married to Australian actor Simon Baker. They have 3 children: Stella (b. 1993), Claude (b. 1998), and Harry (b. 2001) whose godmother is Nicole Kidman.
The couple moved in with each other six weeks after meeting. In 1995, they headed for L.A. Soon after, Baker landed a string of movie roles, starting with a part in LA Confidential. A year later, they were married in a grove of eucalyptus trees on her mother’s 40-acre property outside Sydney.
Rebecca's sister Amy & friend Naomi Watts were her bridesmaids.
Been acting since she was 11.
Rigg went into labour with, her first child, Stella while she and Baker were attending Naomi Watts's farewell party when she left Australia for LA in 1993.
Rebecca played Simon Baker's girlfriend on E Street.
Rebecca on swearing:
“What you see is what you get with us. Stella is always saying, ‘You’ve got to stop swearing in front of my friends. It’s humiliating’. But Australians use swear words in an endearing sort of way.”
Creator of The Gaurdian David Hollander:
“Simon and Rebecca have got a lot of exurberance and intensity. Their home is not a place you go to watch TV but a place to have debates and play hard. These two people attack life.”
Rebecca on meeting Simon:
"He seemed quite naïve, a country boy. He was introduced to me as Smiley. He’d been called that since he was 8 or 9 years old. Then, the second night we were out, I said, ‘I can’t call you this. I need to know what your name is.’ “
Rebecca on her wedding:
"It went on for three days and turned into a bit of a bacchanalia. Naomi was in the lake, her gown disintegrating. People stayed overnight and basically slept where they fell. It was beautiful.”
Nicole Kidman on Rebecca & Simon's house in Malibu:
“Simon and Becca are sort of a bohemian couple, and their house has that feel too… I’ve stayed there, cried there, laughed there, danced there and gotten drunk there. I’ve done most things there.”
Simon Baker on Rebecca, Nicole & Naomi:
“Nicole and Naomi are good friends of ours. Bec and Nic and Naomi are inseparable. Bec went to school with Nic and they're very thick. The three of them are like the Witches of Eastwick.”
