Career [edit]
Her acting career started with her appearance in TV ads and in a 2000 episode of Water Rats called "Jump in the Mouth". She landed her first lead role as Leah Pointin in the 2008 Australian film Newcastle.
Breeds played Cassie Cometti in series 3 of Blue Water High, but she made her first appearance in series 2, episode 3 as Tina. It was during filming on Blue Water High that she discovered she had been hired to play the role of Ruby Buckton on Home and Away, and her first scenes aired in June/July 2008.
About her Home and Away character, Breeds says "Ruby has gone through a lot, mostly now having a disease and had to gain a level of independence I really admire. She is free-spirited and sure of who she is. I love playing Ruby; she is cheeky and easy-going, but very passionate about her family and friends."
In June 2012, TV Week's Erin Miller reported that Breeds had filmed her final scenes and had left Home and Away.[4][5] The actress made her last appearance as Ruby during the episode broadcast on 15 August 2012.[6] Shortly after, Nellie Andreeva from Deadline.com announced that Breeds had been in cast in her first US television role. Breeds will play Julie, the female lead in Rob Greenberg's comedy pilot for CBS.[7]
Early and personal life [edit]
Breeds attended Sutherland Shire Christian School from kindergarten to year 10 and then St Andrew's Cathedral School for Years 11 and 12, and was Drama Captain in 2005. At the end of 2005, Breeds, in her capacity as Drama Captain, along with the Music Captain organised a Year 12 Revue; she participated in a few acts including a Spice Girls tribute and a mashup song, co-written with Nick Hansen, titled Steal My Essays/Textual Healing which discusses the Year 12 NSW HSC Advanced English Syllabus she completed in 2005.
In 2009, Breeds began dating her Home and Away co-star Luke Mitchell.[8] The couple announced their engagement in May 2012 and they married in January 2013.[8][9][10]
