In our weekly interview about objects, the actor tells us about a luxurious dressing gown and her inherited love of tea
at Stewart is best known for her performances in two very different Australian TV shows. Her breakout role was in the first season of Underbelly, where she played gangland wife Roberta Williams with chilling excellence. Then she followed that up with seven years as Billie Proudman on Offspring.
I had to retire the original gown late last year – it could practically stand up on its own. It had seen more domestic action than any garment should. But it has been replaced with an identical one, which I will never surrender!My kettle. Basic, I know. But I come from a long line of tea drinkers. My mother used to drink upwards of 10 cups a day. She would always use a pot.
Admittedly, I have a single-shot coffee heart-starter in the morning but then it’s tea all the way. Coffee can be outsourced, but tea is personal. I need to make my own tea. I need that kettle. I’ll fire up with a strong English breakfast and then switch down to low caffeine or herbal from late afternoon.‘The beautiful, special ones? Gone. Always’: Stewart’s knack for losing sunglasses
Every expensive pair of sunglasses I have ever owned. $20 ones always find their way back to me, but the beautiful, special ones? Gone. Always. I love sunglasses. They are an instant lift; they cover any tiredness and make me feel put together. I have quite pale eyes so I’m very squinty in the sun without them. I had one pair that made me feel happy and better looking whenever I’d wear them. They were a birthday present from my husband and the kids. I loved them so much I replaced the lenses when they got too scratched to wear – then I promptly lost them.

Quarterly NDIS data shows 11 per cent of boys aged 5 to 7 and 5 per cent of girls are participants in the scheme – a jump of almost one per cent in three months.
