    Rove McManus and his wife Tasma Walton were spotted taking a stroll on Sydney’s famous Bondi Beach with their 10-year-old daughter Ruby on Monday.

    The family held hands and appeared to be in cheerful mood as they thoroughly enjoyed their day out.

    Rove, 50, looked smart and super fit after his night at the Logie Awards on Sunday.

    He wore a white T-shirt with thin horizontal stripes and black jeans, combined with a bomber jacket.

    He completed his look with designer sunglasses and white running shoes.

    Tasma wore a dark puffer jacket over a black knitted sweater, which she paired with red floral-print pants and black running shoes.

    The former Home and Away star, also 50, wore her short dark hair parted to the side and went makeup-free for the outing.

    As an accessory she wore dark sunglasses.

    The couple, who have been married for 13 years, are trying to free their household from the ‘boys and girls’ stereotype.

    In 2022, Tasma told Stellar Magazine that the idea first came about when a classmate told Ruby that blue was a “boy color.”

    “We say to our little girl, ‘Isn’t that ridiculous?’ No one owns a color. Everyone can like any color they want,” she said.

    “Parents of little boys should have these conversations too,” she added.

    The star went on to explain that she doesn’t impose any restrictions on the types of toys or activities her daughter enjoys.

    “It’s a fine line between acknowledging the reality of the ‘guidelines’ we have in society, and at the same time trying to give her the courage and excitement to know that she doesn’t have to abide by those perceived rules,” she said.

    “Because the choices you make do not harm anyone else or any other living being, you can do and be whoever you want.”
