Academy Award-nominated actor Margot Robbie and her husband, producer Tom Ackerley, have joyfully welcomed their first child, a baby boy, born on October 17. The couple, who have been together since meeting on the set of Suite Française in 2013, tied the knot in a private ceremony in Byron Bay, Australia, in December 2016. This happy news marks an exciting new chapter in their lives as parents.
The 34-year-old Australian star reportedly went into labor slightly ahead of her due date, but both mother and baby are doing well. Close family members, including grandparents from both sides, are expected to visit the couple’s Los Angeles home soon to meet the newest addition to the family. Although Margot and Tom have remained private about the news, recent sightings of Ackerley shopping for baby supplies near Venice Beach sparked speculation.
Margot Robbie’s career continues to thrive alongside her new role as a mother. She is set to star as Catherine Earnshaw in Emerald Fennell’s anticipated adaptation of Wuthering Heights, opposite Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff. The project, produced by MRC and LuckyChap, is scheduled to begin pre-production in the UK in 2025. Additionally, her upcoming film A Big Bold Beautiful Journey is slated for release in May 2025.
Margot and Tom’s new arrival is warmly celebrated by fans and loved ones alike as they embark on this beautiful journey into parenthood.
