10:35AM Jess McGuire | She may be up for Best Supporting Actress at this year’s AFI Awards after a star turn as Danielle McGuire in Underbelly, but former Neighbours starlet Madeleine West doesn’t appear to be the type of television thespian chasing fame for the sake of it, or at least that’s the conclusion we can safely draw after she spoke to the Herald Sun over the weekend.
Underbelly and Satisfaction star Madeleine West has left little to the imagination in her on-screen roles this year, but she’s determined to keep her private life under wraps.
The stunning former Neighbours actor has rejected numerous offers from women’s magazines to sell the story of her life with longtime partner, celebrity chef Shannon Bennett, and their two young children.
She’s done a rather good job of keeping her home life under wraps, if you ask me. I am an idiot savant when it comes to knowledge of celebrity babies (no matter how C-list!) and I was only aware of the West-Bennett union resulting in one offspring.
Back to her craft, then! It’s unsurprising to learn that Madeleine is chuffed to be up for a major award.
