Margot Robbie welcomes her first baby with husband Tom Ackerly
It's official: Margot Robbie is a mother. The Barbie actress and her husband, the film producer Tom Ackerley, welcomed a baby boy earlier this month.
According to reports, Robbie went into labour two weeks ago, shortly before her due date. Her baby was born on 17 October, a source added, and “all is well” with the family of three. Robbie and Ackerley's parents are expected to arrive soon to meet their grandson.
It's believed that the actress, who was recently named the new face of Chanel No 5, will take a break from filming projects as she eases into parenthood.
Last month, Robbie caught up with Bazaar to share her beauty and wellness rituals, discussing her evolving attitude to her appearance. "I'm in my thirties now and I feel like I've figured out what works for me in a way that I don't think I had figured out when I was younger – definitely not as a teenager," she told us. "In my twenties, I was still figuring out what made me feel good. Sometimes you fall into the trap of wanting to jump onto a trend or a fad but I prefer now to just enhance the parts of me that I like the most. That feels the most authentic, but I think it also just comes across as looking the nicest."
She explained that when it comes to looking after herself, she sticks to the basics. "I drink a lot of water," she said. "I always wear sunscreen. All that boring stuff that you hear and you're like, ‘I know I should do all that.’ I really do do all that. I'm Australian, so sunscreen is the key to everything. I put my make-up on pretty quickly. I spend longer prepping my skin, or after I take my make-up off [I spend longer] looking after my skin than I do actually applying make-up."
Robbie and Ackerley, who are notoriously private, quietly got married in 2016. After founding production company LuckyChap Entertainment, the two have developed several projects together, including A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, which stars Robbie alongside Colin Farrell and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. Their growing family, however, will undoubtedly be their biggest collaboration yet.
