A New Chapter for Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley: Welcoming Parenthood
Margot Robbie and her husband, Tom Ackerley, have embarked on an exciting new journey as parents. The “Barbie” star welcomed a baby boy in late October, marking the couple’s first child together.
Reports indicate that Robbie went into labour a couple of weeks earlier than expected, though sources close to the family have confirmed that mother and baby are doing well. This joyful news follows several months of speculation since Robbie’s pregnancy was first hinted at over the summer.
Robbie and Ackerley, who initially connected as friends on the set of Suite Française, transitioned into a romantic relationship in 2016. Since then, they’ve maintained a strong and supportive partnership, balancing both personal and professional life.
The couple has always expressed their desire to start a family, and this milestone marks a special chapter in their journey together.

Robbie and Ackerley have not only succeeded as a married couple but have also managed to thrive as business partners. Together, they co-founded the production company LuckyChap Entertainment, which has been behind several notable projects, including I, Tonya and Promising Young Woman.
Ackerley noted that their professional and personal lives blend seamlessly, with the couple often spending nearly “24 hours a day” together. He explained to The Times of London that their connection is strong, with no need to separate work from home life.
Despite their busy schedules and high-profile careers, the couple has maintained a low-key, grounded relationship. Robbie previously shared how marriage has enriched her life, adding a sense of fun and responsibility.
While fans eagerly anticipated when the couple would take the step into parenthood, Robbie always handled questions about family planning on her terms, emphasising the importance of waiting until the timing felt right.
