Margot Robbie Waiting For Arrival Of First Baby: She “Absolutely Can’t Wait!”

Margot Robbie, the star who brought Barbie to life, is about to step into an exciting new role: motherhood! The 34-year-old actress and her husband, Tom Ackerley, are expecting their first child, and Margot couldn’t be more thrilled. A source close to the couple shared, “Margot absolutely can’t wait.”

She and Tom have wanted to be parents for a really long time, and they’re so happy, according to the source.

Margot, known for her intense work ethic and dedication to her craft, is now embracing a new chapter in her life. The Oscar-nominated actress is spending time in Los Angeles, preparing for her baby’s arrival. The insider added, “She looks amazing. She’s usually one of the hardest working actresses in Hollywood. She seems to enjoy some downtime from filming right now.”

Despite the break, Margot hasn’t completely stepped away from her busy career. Amidst hospital visits and baby prep, she’s still been working a bit. “She seems to love staying busy,” said the source. 

Margot has several projects in the works, including A Big Bold Beautiful Journey with Colin Farrell and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. And it’s not just acting that keeps her occupied; she and Tom are also entrepreneurs. They co-founded the production company LuckyChap together and recently launched their gin brand, Papa Salt.

Back in July, news of Margot’s pregnancy first came to light, and according to a set insider, no one suspected she was pregnant during filming. The source revealed that Margot was “super professional and focused” while working on A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, despite the long days on set. “…It didn’t seem like a big deal to her,” the insider shared, showing just how effortlessly Margot manages both her career and personal life.

Margot first showed off her baby bump on September 9 at a special screening in L.A. for My Old Ass, a film produced by LuckyChap. She attended the event alongside her husband, Tom, and their co-producers, looking radiant and excited for this new phase.

Margot and Tom’s love story goes back to 2013 when they met on the set of Suite Française, where Tom was working as an assistant director. The two hit it off and tied the knot in December 2016 in a private ceremony on Australia’s Gold Coast. They’ve kept much of their relationship out of the public eye, choosing to enjoy their time together away from the spotlight.

For the couple, starting a family has always been a dream. A source revealed in July that Margot and Tom “wanted to start a family for quite some time. Family means a lot to both of them, and they knew early on that being parents was something they really wanted.”

As Margot and Tom prepare to welcome their first child, fans can’t wait to see her shine in this next chapter of her life. The world may know her as Barbie, Harley Quinn, or any of her other iconic roles, but soon, Margot will take on her most important role yet—being a mom.
