'Oh my God, don't ask me that': Rose Byrne shies away from talking about her personal life before saying son Rocco, one, has been 'life changing'

She the quiet Australian actress who doesn't have her own public Instagram account.

But for Rose Byrne, 37, the extent of her disinterest in talking about her family is yet to be fully realised.

In an interview with Marie Claire, the Bridesmaids actress shied away from further questions about her personal life, but opened up about being a new mum.

Dress fancy in florals like Rose in her Romance Was Born dress

Stepping out to present the trophy for the Best Lead Actor in a Drama TV at the AACTA Awards in Sydney, Rose Byrne chose fancy florals for the occasion.

The talented actress wore a bloomin' beautiful dress by Australian label Romance Was Born, a brand also previously worn by Miranda Kerr.

The brunette beauty lavished praise and love upon her one-year-old son Rocco, but not before deflecting a few questions it appears she was not expecting to have to answer.

When asked to describe herself - just as an actor would with a character they play - Rose avoided the question.

'Oh my God, don't ask me that... you've got to ask someone else,' she replied.

She also avoided revealing how her Boardwalk Empire star husband Bobby Cannavale would describe her.

'Oh my God': When asked to describe herself, the 37-year-old nervously batted the question away, saying: 'Oh my God, don't ask me that... you've got to ask someone else'

'I'll have to get him to email you. I'm so self-conscious,' Rose admitted.

She was then asked what it felt like to be called the love of someone's life, referring to Bobby's Emmy acceptance speech.

In response, the actress was honest with her feelings about answering such questions.

'I get really shy, so I'm probably going to opt out of a lot of these questions,' she firmly stated.

 Pressing on: Interestingly, the interviewer pressed on, asking how her Boardwalk Empire star husband Bobby Cannavale would describe her. The Bridesmaids actress replied: 'I'll have to get him to email you. I'm so self-conscious,'

Opting out: The interview appeared to go a step too far, asking Rose what it felt like to be called the love of Bobby's life. The brunette beauty told the publication she'd have to 'opt out' of some of the questions

Still, the publication asked again, telling her it must be 'every girl's dream' to have that happen.

Rose responded with an uncharacteristically upbeat response, saying: 'Oh my goodness, wow. That's so sweet. I was really surprised. I was like wow'.

Speaking about her adorable son Rocco, the actress had a lot more specifics to share, mentioning her child sleeps through the night, implying the child's growth had helped ease the pressure from the overwhelming early days.

'But that tiny stage is kind of amazing too because it's so intense and precious and personal. It's life-changing'. 

Life changing! After another awkward question, Rose finally opened up about being a mother to one-year-old Rocco (pictured). 'It's so intense and precious and personal. It's life-changing,' she gushed
