After breaking up with Matafeo, Acaster found himself in the arms of actress Louise Ford. However, this relationship didn't last long as well. Acaster alleged that Ford left him for Rowan Atkinson. Matafeo has remained single since leaving Acaster.

Comedian Matafeo's Education Status

Comedian Matafeo did her studies at the Auckland Girls Grammer School. It is an all-girls school in Auckland, New Zealand. She must have been a good student as she was the head girl in her secondary school class.

Matafeo gained success as a comedian at a very young age. She started performing at fifteen, which must have been why she didn't continue her studies, as she always had a thing for comedy and wanted to make a living out of it.

Besides that, Matafeo's show Starstruck is also responsible for her being rich. She has been involved in the industry since 2012 and has worked in numerous shows. So, it's no surprise that she has also made a lot of wealth in the process. 

Supports Green Party

James Acaster's rumored wife, Matafeo, is a huge admirer and a supporter of the Green Party. It is a political party involved in green politics, focusing on environmentalism, social justice, nonviolence, and democracy.

She has also tried to associate with the party, but it hasn't gone in her favor in the past. The comedian joined the party's campaign in 2020 as an MC. However, she was later removed by the party. One of the party's MPs was the reason she was taken out of the campaign. She has said that she has no relationship with this MP, so she didn't know why she was taken out of the campaign.

Rose Matafeo comes from a mixed family background. She is a mix of Samoan, Croatian, and Scottish. She gets her Samoan from her father and Croatian and Scottish from her mother.

Rose's parents met in the Rastafarian Church, as mentioned in the article in The New Yorker. How these two fell in love remains a mystery. But their marriage hasn't crumbled yet, as Matafeo's parents are still living together.

Putting her at the same height as Cainan Wiebe. Her height is further complimented by her slim body, which weighs 133 lbs (60 kg). 

Matafeo's shoe size is 10, and she has said that this is also one of the reasons she doesn't wear girl shoes. In a New Zealand Herald interview, she said she usually wears sneakers because girl shoes don't fit her. And she credited her huge feet to the Samoan genes she got from her father.

Matafeo Offered Hotdogs For Her Lost Cat
