‘Barbie’ star Margot Robbie is now a mother

Hollywood actress Margot Robbie has reportedly become a mother. The 34-year-old Queensland-born actress and her British husband, Tom Ackerley, are parents of a son, according to media reports.

The Mail on Sunday broke the news at the weekend, reporting that the couple became parents two weeks ago, shortly before Robbie’s due date, and that “all is well”. People has also reported a source has confirmed the birth. Robbie’s representatives did not respond when contacted by this masthead.

Robbie and Ackerley met in 2013 on the set of the World War II drama Suite Francaise. Robbie had a supporting role in the film; Ackerley was working as an assistant director. The couple married in December 2016 in a private ceremony in Byron Bay, reports Sydney morning herald.

For the past decade, they have kept their relationship outside the spotlight. There was no formal announcement of their engagement or wedding.

There was no formal announcement that the couple were expecting a child, though photographs of a pregnant Robbie were published in July during the couple’s Italian vacation.

It is not likely a formal announcement will be made for the birth of the couple’s son. Emails to Robbie’s US publicists went unanswered.

But the Mail on Sunday published images of Ackerley purchasing baby supplies, including a box of nappies, near the couple’s home in Los Angeles. Ackerley was also pictured holding what appeared to be a bottle of champagne._Agencies.
