Multiple sources close to Margot Robbie and her husband Tom Ackerley have confirmed to People that the couple is expecting their first child. The news comes after Robbie was seen in Lake Como, Italy, sporting what appeared to be a baby bump.
The Barbie star, dressed in a white crop top, was photographed boarding a boat with Ackerley during their holiday. Despite the circulating rumors, neither Robbie nor Ackerley have made an official announcement regarding the pregnancy.
Robbie and Ackerley’s love story began in 2013 on the set of Suite Française, where Ackerley worked as an assistant director. Their friendship blossomed into romance, leading to their wedding in a private ceremony in Byron Bay, Australia, in December 2016.
In a rare interview with Vogue in June 2016, Robbie described her husband as “the best-looking guy in London” and opened up about their relationship. “I was the ultimate single gal. The idea of relationships made me want to vomit. And then this crept up on me. We were friends for so long. I was always in love with him, but I thought, Oh, he would never love me back. Don’t make it weird, Margot. Don’t be stupid and tell him that you like him,” she told Vogue. “And then it happened, and I was like, Of course we’re together. This makes so much sense, the way nothing has ever made sense before.”
The couple also shares a professional partnership. In 2014, Robbie, Ackerley, along with Robbie’s childhood friend Sophia Kerr and Josey McNamara, co-founded the production company LuckyChap Entertainment. The company has produced several successful films and television series, including I, Tonya, Birds of Prey, and the recent Barbie.
