Hollywood A-lister Margot Robbie got married to husband Tom Ackerley in 2016, three years after the couple initially began dating in 2013.

Though they are notoriously private, Robbie recently shared her thoughts on motherhood in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.

Since welcoming their son in October 2024, Margot Robbie shared that the feeling of being a mother is simply unparalleled.

"It's funny, you try to explain to someone who has kids, you don’t need to because they get it. And if they don’t, it’s probably just really boring to hear."

The Wolf of Wall Street star added,

"So, it's kind of like: 'It's the best', you know?"

Though the couple has confirmed they share a baby boy, his name has not been publicly revealed.

Insider shares updates on Margot Robbie and family, more

While Margot Robbie is fiercely private, a source close to the couple shared some information about them recently with People Magazine. As per the source,

“They have been hanging out in [Los Angeles] as a family. Tom's mom has been visiting from England. Margot has several projects lined up next year. She wants to rest now and spend time with the baby. She's enjoying motherhood."

The insider’s accounts seem to line up with the sentiments Margot Robbie shared in her recent interview with Entertainment Weekly. The source continued,

"They’ve both been settling into being parents. They’re homebodies, so it’s been lovely to spend the time just them, at home with him. They’re so happy."

The source also revealed that the couple “waited a long time to get pregnant, so it was almost unbelievable when the baby actually arrived.”

Margot Robbie also recently made her first red carpet appearance since becoming a mother. In this case, it was to promote her upcoming fantasy film, A Big Bold Beautiful Journey. The event took place at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills on August 20. Interestingly, this is also her first feature film release since Barbie in 2023.

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey stars Margot Robbie alongside a stellar ensemble cast including Colin Farrell (The Penguin), Jodie Turner-Smith (The Agency), Lily Rabe (Shrinking), Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Fleabag), and Hamish Linklater (Midnight Mass). It is directed by Kogonada, known to many for his work on Pachinko, a series available on Apple TV+.
