The couple share two children

Prior to his relationship with Rose, Bobby was married to Jenny Lumet, with whom he shares one son named Jake. 

Do the couple have children? 

Rose and Bobby have been in a relationship since 2012 and share two sons, Rafa, four, and Rocco, six. 

Chatting about why they haven't tied the knot back in 2021, Rose, 42, said: "I keep going, 'Let's get around to it, let's do it.' And then, you know, you have a baby, and then, oh, there's another baby. It was kind of like that for us.

"I love weddings, and I know people [for whom] it's an important thing, and I respect that totally," she told The Sydney Morning Herald.
