Margot Robbie and her hubby Tom Ackerley are reportedly over the moon that their baby news has finally been revealed. The smitten pair, who first locked eyes on a film set in 2013 and tied the knot in 2016 in Australia, are expecting their first little one.

According to People, sources have shared that the 34 year old Barbie actress and her producer husband, also 34, have "wanted to start a family for quite some time".

An insider has now spilled the beans that they're "absolutely thrilled" that the public is in on their pregnancy secret after "keeping it under wraps for a while". "Family means a lot to both of them and they knew early on in their relationship being parents was something they really wanted," another source dished to the weekly publication. "They've been keeping it under wraps for a while but are happy the news is out."

OK! has contacted reps for Margot and Tom for comment.

The lovebirds were snapped enjoying a holiday in Lake Como, Italy this weekend before their baby news hit the headlines. Margot was seen flaunting her bump in a white crop top with a blazer casually thrown over her shoulders, reports the Mirror.

Margot and Tom's love story began on the set of World War II drama Suite Francaise. They said their 'I dos' in Australia's Byron Bay in December 2016, which came as a surprise to many as the couple had kept their engagement hush-hush.

Rewinding back to her 2016 Vogue interview, Margot candidly shared the adorable love story with Tom and confessed: "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. 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.'"

Meanwhile, last month, Tom spilled the beans to The Sunday Times on how they master a balanced work-life equation. Their marital bliss is refreshingly private. Tom revealed: "It's seamless. We don't have a toggle on, toggle off. It's all become one thing."

And the happy news is dream come true for Margot, who previously revealed she'd always wanted children with Tom. Speaking to Porter in a 2018 interview, Margot said: "If I'm looking into my future 30 years from now, I want to see a big Christmas dinner with tons of kids there.

"But definitely not at the moment. That's 100 percent certain."
