The 26-year-old actress – who is rumoured to be dating her Jumper co-star Hayden Christensen – says while she is happy starring in hit Hollywood films, she would be just as content raising a family.

She said: “I’ve always been a really maternal person. I really want a family. I love the career I have chosen, but I’d be quite happy as a housewife, at home with the kids. I think I’d be really content.”

However, following a very public break-up from her The O.C. co-star Adam Brody, Rachel refuses to discuss whether Hayden will be the man she has children with.

She added to Hello magazine: “Hayden is a good guy, he has the biggest heart and he’s one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. We are in contact, and I can say that I’m happy. Whoever you are dating you don’t want other people sharing in that experience so I don’t talk about my private life.

“I try not to pay attention to any of the stories because if you do it really gets in your head. It’s not healthy.”
