Personal life
Rachel Leigh Blakely was born on 28 July 1968 in Brunei, Borneo.[4] Her father, Harold Blakely, is an American, and her mother was Australian. Due to her father's oil business, the family, including younger sister Ruth, moved to several countries over the years until settling on an Australian farm when Blakely was twelve.[4]

Before she became an actress, Blakely worked as a nightclub bouncer, a model and a short order cook; it was her ex-husband's suggestion that she audition for a role on Neighbours.[6]

In her spare time, Blakely enjoys camping, sewing, painting, cooking and sleeping. Her favourite authors are Margaret Atwood and Tracy Chevalier, and her favourite movies are Queen Margot and Breaking the Waves.[6]

Blakely married fellow actor Peter Craig in 1990, but they divorced some years later. She met her current partner, stuntman Sean Rigby, on the set of Tales of the South Seas. Their first child, Cooper Lee Rigby, was born in September 2003, and their second child, Nash Rigby, was born in early 2009.[7]

Career
Blakely was a successful model, before she was spotted by the Neighbours casting director and asked to audition for the role of Gaby Willis.[1] Blakely was introduced to the show as Gaby in August 1991.[8] In October 1993, David Brown of TV Week reported Blakely would be leaving Neighbours.[9] She filmed her final scenes the following month.[9] Blakely later reprised her role of Gaby for Neighbours' 20th anniversary episode broadcast in July 2005.[10]

Blakely then moved into films - mostly made for television - and guest appearances on well-known television shows. The actress has also been part of the leading cast on several programs, including Blue Heelers,[11] City Life and The Lost World. She also joined the cast of Mortified, playing Glenda Fry.

I don't know what's happened but picture 3 definitely isn't Rachel. The others are certainly her. I've been a big fan for 35 years and I'm proud to be because she's an extremely beautiful lady and she is a lady. Love, Rachel 💖

Rachel Blakely, nightclub bouncer! That's insane! I've been a massive fan of this beautiful woman since 1991 when she shot to fame as Gaby Willis in Neighbours, so that's 35 years. Of course she starred in the TV series The Lost World. But her greatest role was as the fashion designer in one of the most successful and popular TV programmes in the world. It was inspired by the producers of Neighbours to cast her because she had been a very successful model before she got the part. She was and still is one of my favourite ladies and she is a lady. Love Rachel. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

She's sexy, but in a very classy way. I'm not afraid to say that I've been a fan of hers for over 30 years since she starred as Gaby Willis in Neighbours. Some of the pictures come from the TV series The Lost World. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

There are 17 pictures of this beautiful woman. Good. There should be more, I had a massive crush on her when she starred in Neighbours, I thought she was stunning. She was a very successful model before she went into showbusiness as well.

I've been a big fan of hers for over 30 years! I remember her best as Gaby Willis in Neighbours. The character had a rivalry with Annalise. Seeing that Kimberley Davies who played Annalise is coming back, could she be returning as well? I hope so. Best wishes, Rachel. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

As with Jennifer O'Dell, I've only ever seen her in "The Lost World" TV series but both of them made what was already a good show into a great one. Her character was a lot more multi-dimensional than that of Jennifer and although her breasts were not in the same jaw-droppingly eye-catching class as Jennifer's they certainly had their moments, and for me at least, her face was the more beautiful too! Currently re-watching the series again and loving every minute of it!

Her breasts are about the same size as Jennifer O'Dell. The writers put Jennifer in skimpy outfits because she was supposed to have been stranded there for year before the rest of them got there. Plus, Rachel's character was supposed to be part of high society so would dress more conservatively. The show would have gone on for a few more seasons if Rachel was wearing the same closes as Jennifer.

Richard, I first saw Rachel Blakely in the early 1990s starring as Gaby Willis in Neighbours. She was beautiful then and hopefully she still is today. I saw her briefly in The Lost World. I've been a fan of hers for over 30 years and I'm not afraid to say it.
