Reunited: Sheree Murphy was greeted by husband Harry Kewell as she and their three children arrived in Australia yesterday


It must be a daunting prospect - relocating to the other side of the world.

So Sheree Murphy must have been more than a little relieved when she stepped off the plane in Australia to be greeted by husband Harry Kewell.

The former Emmerdale actress, who is pregnant with her fourth child, looked overcome with emotion as she met Kewell at Melbourne airport with their children Taylor, 10, Ruby, eight and three-year-old Matilda.

And Harry, who has relocated his family Down Under after signing to play with the Melbourne Victory football team, appeared more than a little excited about reuniting with his family.

Wearing black jeans, a white T-shirt and black jacket, Sheree looked relatively fresh-faced considering she had just stepped off a 24-hour flight.

Meanwhile, her children also appeared excited about the prospect of touching down in the country which will become their new home.

Sheree and her three children were accompanied by two trolleys full of luggage, prepared to make their new abode as homely as possible.

And while Kewell is busy with his sporting commitments, it seems Sheree, who has had a role on Hollyoaks as well as Emmerdale, could soon find herself on the small screen.

It was reported earlier this month that the 36-year-old actress is set to be approached by bosses at Australian soap Neighbours.

A spokesperson for the show told Australia's Herald Sun newspaper: 'We heard a few months ago that she would love to have a role on Neighbours, but there has been no contact from her agent as yet.

'If we could find a role for her that would be appropriate, we would, of course, consider her for the role. Our UK audience is massive, so to have somebody like Sheree would be great as she would be instantly recognisable to viewers over there.

'I suspect she grew up watching Neighbours in the UK, so I'm sure she would be open to the idea of joining the cast.'

Sheree was given a star-studded send-of ahead of her move Down Under, with famous friends including Coleen Rooney and Alex Gerrard attending her leaving party.
