HAVING endured a white Christmas and New Year at their New York townhouse, Naomi Watts and her family returned to Oz this week for what will be an extended stay in Sydney.
The 43-year-old actress, her partner of almost seven years Live Schreiber and their two sons Sasha, 4, and Sammy, 3, were all smiles as their long-haul flight landed at Kingsford-Smith, although we are yet to give them the summer they hoped for.
They enjoyed an Australia Day lunch at the Point Piper apartment of Big Apple friends Kristy Hinze and her husband Jim Clark (plus their newborn daughter Dylan) and Confidential understands Watts et al are searching for an eastern suburbs rental to settle in to for the next few months.
J. Edgar star Watts, who recently signed as the new ambassador for Jacobs Creek wines, is due to begin filming The Grandmothers in Sydney with Forrest Gump's Robin Wright next month.
Watts spoke out in an interview last week about how she and Schreiber plan everything around their children.
"No matter what, mothers will always punish themselves if they work," she said. "Liev and I try to take turns (to make films) and it's worked so far."We've probably only overlapped by a couple of weeks once or twice which is very fortunate because our family is the most important thing," she said.
"Our children go everywhere with us. But then my sister-in-law, who works at least 10 hours a day, only gets to see her daughter for two hours in the morning and then she's asleep at night when she comes home. So we probably spend more time with our kids than the average person."
