The rose will have been grafted and what you are seeing is growth from the original root stock.

Shoots that grow from the rootstock of a grafted plant are called suckers.
They should be removed - dig down a little to find from where exactly the sucker originates and pull it away from here.
Don't just trim it down to the ground or it will simply regrow.
