Discovering Margot Robbie’s Husband: Everything You Need to Know About Tom Ackerley

Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley celebrate the arrival of their first child, marking a new chapter in their journey

The couple has recently entered parenthood! In November 2024, PEOPLE reported that Margot Robbie and her husband, Tom Ackerley, welcomed their first child. The pair, who married quietly in 2016, have shared their journey since then.

Their love story began in 2013 on the set of the World War II film Suite Française, where Robbie starred and Ackerley served as an assistant director.  They began dating in the following year and later co-founded their production company, LuckyChap Entertainment, in 2014, alongside friends Josey McNamara and Sophia Kerr.

This company has been behind several successful projects, including I, Tonya, Birds of Prey, and Barbie, all featuring Robbie. Discussing their personal and professional life balance, Ackerley told The Sunday Times in June 2024, “We spend 24 hours a day together. It’s seamless. We don’t have a toggle on, or toggle off. It’s all become one thing.”

The couple’s love story began in 2013 on the set of Suite Française, where friendship turned into romance

Ackerley’s career in the film industry began as an extra in the initial Harry Potter films, while Robbie has been a long-time fan of the series. She reminisced about celebrating her thirteenth birthday by reading Harry Potter and even shared a memorable photo of herself enjoying tea while reading. During a 2020 appearance on The Graham Norton Show, she humorously pointed out that Ackerley was an extra in the franchise.

After his early days in front of the camera, Ackerley pursued a career behind the scenes, working as a floor runner and later as an assistant director. Their relationship blossomed on the set of Suite Française, where Ackerley caught Robbie’s eye, despite her initial reluctance toward relationships. She later recounted how their friendship deepened into love.

In December 2016, the couple married in a private ceremony on Australia’s Gold Coast, without publicizing their engagement beforehand. Following the wedding, Robbie confirmed the marriage through a playful Instagram post featuring a kiss with Ackerley and a glimpse of her ring.

The same year they began dating, Robbie and Ackerley co-founded LuckyChap Entertainment, living together with their business partners in London. They aimed to produce films that focus on female narratives and uplift emerging talent, with Ackerley expressing their vision in a 2020 interview.

In November 2023, their production company was recognized with the Producer of the Year award at Variety’s Power of Women gala. Robbie, who was unable to speak due to losing her voice, asked Ackerley and McNamara to read her acceptance speech, which included humorous anecdotes about their early days working together.

Instead of a honeymoon, the newlyweds dove straight into filming I, Tonya. Robbie recalled moments of longing for a beach while they worked, but they eventually enjoyed their honeymoon in Tahiti after completing the film, where they coincidentally met Ellen DeGeneres and former President Barack Obama.

Despite her success, Robbie sometimes struggles with self-doubt and turns to Ackerley for reassurance. She shared with the Daily Mirror in 2021 that she often seeks his encouragement before starting new projects.

While Ackerley offers emotional support, he looks to Robbie for help with his fear of snakes, which he developed as a result of not being exposed to them in England. During an appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Robbie described a recent incident involving a snake in their garden that startled Ackerley.

During the press tour for Barbie in June 2023, Ackerley joined Robbie at various events, including the film’s premiere in Los Angeles, where they showcased their fashion choices—Robbie in a glamorous black gown and Ackerley resembling a contemporary Ken.

The couple confirmed they had welcomed a son in late 2024. Sources revealed in July that they were expecting, highlighting their mutual desire for family early in their relationship. An insider noted that being parents has always been a significant aspiration for both.
