Rebecca Gibney froze when cameras started rolling for Dancing With The Stars after her 60th birthday. The actress spent weeks practicing dance moves but felt overwhelmed during the live performance. Old feelings about her body and confidence returned as she stepped onto the stage. Dance partner Ian Waite helped calm her nerves backstage with other nervous contestants. She cannot remember performing her first routine because anxiety took over completely.

The Packed To The Rafters star wants to challenge herself more often during her third career chapter. She signed up for theater work with Cameron Daddo and accepted a secret new project. Rebecca refuses to appear on Survivor or celebrity jungle shows despite her son's interest. Her 21-year-old son Zachary works as an aspiring actor and introduced her at the Logie Awards ceremony.

Rebecca married production designer Richard Bell after meeting him on the Halifax set 25 years ago. They decided to try having children for one year and she became pregnant within three months. Mental health therapy helped her overcome anxiety and depression from her difficult childhood. She learned to care for herself before helping others around her.
