After the phenomenal success of the movie Barbie in 2023, Margot Robbie decided to take a short break from her career. At that time, it seemed the actress would only receive support, admiration, and reach new heights. But her return to the screen turned out to be far more scandalous than anyone expected. The new role she chose sparked a wave of criticism — all because of the adaptation of the legendary novel by Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights. What is the reason for the hate? And also the whole story of both success and personal dramas of this incredible actress — right now!

Too Old For Her Role?

In the new adaptation of Wuthering Heights, Margot Robbie plays the role of Catherine Earnshaw — the heroine who, according to the plot of the novel, gets married at 18. As the Daily Mail writes, when the first photos from the set appeared online, fans started flooding social media with comments: "Why didn’t she dye her hair dark?", "This isn’t Catherine, this is Barbie in a Victorian dress"... But most of the criticism was about the actress's age. 

@harpersbazaar.com

Margot is 35 years old, and many believe she can no longer convincingly play a young, capricious, and sometimes cruel girl... Well, if we were in Margot’s shoes, we would feel hurt because she is young and a wonderful actress but haters will always find something to criticize.

Mistakes In Costumes And Too Modern A Style

A separate reason for outrage was the heroine’s appearance. Instead of the expected late 18th-century look, Catherine as portrayed by Robbie appeared in a wedding dress that internet users compared to something unsuitable. 

@dailymail.co.uk

Captions under the photos were sharp: "Is this a historical drama or a fashion show?" as Daily Mail quoted the haters. Many doubted how carefully the filmmakers treated the era and the original source.

Future Failure Or Risky Move?

Discussions about Margot’s "old" age for the lead role and the allegedly unsuccessful costumes according to haters did not calm down. As Daily Mail writes, some fans of the novel are already predicting the film will fail. Moreover, Robbie is accused of using the project for self-promotion rather than out of respect for the classic. In addition, rumors about a large number of erotic scenes involving the actress sparked a wave of criticism. 

@brit.co

This unsettled many — especially against the backdrop of the original novel, where passion is expressed differently, through restraint and psychological play. Fans are already wondering: what kind of Wuthering Heights are they preparing for them — a sensual drama or a stylized art film?

A Film That Divided The Internet

Filming began in January 2025, with the project’s budget estimated at £62 million. The production is handled by LuckyChap — a company owned by Margot Robbie and her husband Tom Ackerley. 

@brit.co

The director is Emerald Fennell, who has already made a name with films like Saltburn and Promising Young Woman. The role of Heathcliff is played by Jacob Elordi — and now, as TMZ quotes the film’s haters, "fans of the novel are hoping at least for him."

What’s Next: Revival Or Cancellation?

The premiere is scheduled for February 2026 but it is already clear — the public will follow the project not with admiration but to see if Robbie manages to prove to everyone that she is capable of more than just the role of a perfect doll. 

@brit.co

Whether she will be able to convince skeptics and breathe new life into the character of Catherine Earnshaw will only be revealed by time. But one thing is clear: Margot faces one of the most difficult challenges in her career. However, she has fearlessly pursued her goals since childhood — so we are confident that this beauty can handle anything!

Family And Humble Childhood

Margot Robbie was born in the Australian town of Dalby, Queensland. Her father, Mike Robbie, was a farmer, and her mother, Sarie Kessler, was a physiotherapist and specialist in caring for elderly and disabled people. 

@IMP Features / Chris White / East News

There were four children in the family, and Margot was the third — she has an older brother, an older sister, and a younger brother. In one childhood photo, the future movie star is pictured with her brother — just an ordinary farm girl who did not yet suspect the success ahead.

Without A Father but With Support From Loved Ones

When the youngest child was only a few months old, the father left the family. Margot’s mother had to work extremely hard to support the children, so the girl spent most of her time with her maternal grandparents. 

@dailymail.co.uk

They were farmers, and from an early age Margot helped with chores: she knew how to milk cows, chop wood, and was not afraid of hard work. So determination has been with her since childhood!

First Job... At 10 Years Old

It all started with polishing cutlery in a restaurant — this is how Margot earned her first money at the age of 10. By 16, she was juggling three jobs at once: selling surfboards in a beach shop, working elsewhere, and saving up for her dream. 

@dailymail.co.uk

At 17, she decided: she bought a ticket to Melbourne and paid her first installment for acting classes. It was her personal, conscious decision — a path with no looking back.

Sandwiches, Castings, and Persistence

To pay for her studies, Margot got a job at a popular fast food chain. She worked in the kitchen, making sandwiches for customers, and according to her, it was one of the most fun and favorite jobs she ever had. 

@margtrobie/instagram.com

She joked that she was officially called a “sandwich artist” and really was good at it. Nevertheless, all her free time was spent attending castings — never missing a single opportunity.

The Chance That Changed Everything

When young Robbie landed a role in the series Neighbours (2008–2011), she quit her job. But a funny twist happened six months later: she was invited to “return” to that same fast food place... only not behind the counter but as the face of their advertising campaign. 

@hellomagazine.com

“They paid me for that shoot about 20 times more than I ever earned there,” she recalls. That’s how her real career began — with one role, one chance, and incredible determination to move forward...

“Invisible,” but Determined

Few people know that Margot Robbie’s first steps in the acting profession were far from successful or celebrated. Her early screen appearances were so minor that the name of the young actress was not even… included in the closing credits. That didn’t stop her from giving it her all — from a young age, she was convinced that she would break through one day. 

@margtrobie/instagram.com

From early youth, the future star was incredibly driven. "Be open to new opportunities and ready to take risks. Sometimes that’s exactly how you’ll discover your true passion." — Margot is quoted as saying in the Daily Mail.

Success at Home and Learning on the Job

Her transition to more serious roles came at the age of 18, when Margot was invited to join the Australian TV series Neighbours, which we’ve already mentioned — but now let’s go into more detail. Initially, her character was meant to be secondary but Robbie’s heroine was so loved by the audience that she became a permanent part of the show. 

@hellomagazine.com

The young actress starred in the series for three years, and the producers practically begged her to stay. However, Margot herself felt it was time to move on — and she was dreaming of Hollywood. And yet, she didn’t have a college degree or any formal acting education...

No Acting Schools or Diplomas — Just Natural Instinct

One of Robbie’s most surprising traits is her honesty. Unlike many of her colleagues, she openly admits that she never received a professional acting education. Her highest level of formal training? Somerset College, a regular high school in Queensland. No theatre courses, no academies, no mentors!

 @digitalspy.com

The actress believes that real-life experience, sharp observation skills, and the ability to truly feel the character are far more important. And that attitude, judging by her career, has certainly paid off — Margot has already earned two Oscar nominations, and the journey began back in 2011...

Failures That Became Opportunities

In 2011, Margot moved to Los Angeles. One of her first auditions was for the role of Abby Sampson in the TV series Charlie’s Angels. The producers ended up choosing Rachael Taylor, and Robbie didn’t get the part...
But that very audition got her noticed by other agents. 

@screenrant.com

That’s how she landed a role in the new TV show Pan Am, where she played one of the main characters — a charming flight attendant in the retro-styled world of the 1960s.

A Series That Didn’t Survive — But Gave Valuable Experience

Pan Am launched with a great team, a stylish look, and a promising concept. But ratings were too low, and the show was cancelled after just one season. Robbie didn’t take it as a failure. Thanks to this role, she gained invaluable experience working on a major American production and expanded her circle of professional contacts.

@Sony Pictures

"Everything happens for a reason" — that’s what we have to keep telling ourselves. It’s good to believe something great might be just around the corner, — Margot confidently told TMZ.

About Time: A Step Into Major Cinema

The next big milestone in Robbie’s career was her role in the romantic drama About Time (2013) by director Richard Curtis.

@Courtesy Universal Pictures

Although her character wasn’t the lead, viewers quickly noticed the charismatic blonde with expressive eyes. At that point, it became clear: this girl had a big future on screen! And very soon Margot will receive a fateful call...

A Call from Scorsese!

After About Time hit the big screen, an event happened that would change the actress’s life — Martin Scorsese got in touch. 

@Martin Scorsese/facebook.com

The legendary director offered her a chance to audition for the role of the main character’s wife in the controversial film The Wolf of Wall Street (2013), opposite Leonardo DiCaprio. At the time, Margot had no idea that this movie would become her true ticket into the world of big cinema.

Margot Got Sent to Change Her Clothes!

When Margot Robbie showed up to the Wolf of Wall Street audition with Martin Scorsese, she looked… well, like a true farm girl. Jeans, cowboy boots, and a firm belief that authentic acting mattered more than the right outfit. But casting director Ellen Lewis took one look at the future Naomi Belfort and said sternly, “That’s not going to work.”

@aol.com

Thirty minutes later, Margot was already trying on mini-dresses at a nearby store and stepping into high heels — because to play the wife of a billionaire, she needed the right image: bold, flashy, provocative.
And so, the screen test began...

An Unplanned Slap for DiCaprio!

For Margot, Leonardo DiCaprio had always been a childhood star — posters on the walls, worn-out VHS tapes of Titanic, and dreams of at least one day sharing a frame with him. And suddenly, there she was — at an audition with her childhood idol... that very moment when your heart is pounding like crazy. And then DiCaprio started to improvise. In Sixty Pages, Robbie recalled:
— “I froze. I panicked. He was improvising, and I was thinking: ‘Oh my God, what do I do? What do I say?!’”

@express.co.uk

And in the moment when, according to the script, she was supposed to scream — something inside her flipped. Instead of screaming, she slapped Leo... with full force! Silence. An awkward pause... And then — laughter! DiCaprio laughed, Scorsese laughed, the entire crew applauded. From that moment on, there was no doubt: the role was hers!

What Was Margot Embarrassed About in Front of Her Relatives?

Despite her new status and huge opportunities, Margot remained very modest. For the premiere of The Wolf of Wall Street, she didn’t invite her grandparents — even though they were always incredibly close. But why?

@brobible.com

The reason, according to Margot, was simple — too many explicit scenes. The shock and awkward family conversations were just not something the actress wanted to deal with. So instead, Margot brought her mother, who proudly walked beside her on the red carpet.

Fame Overnight

After The Wolf of Wall Street, the 23-year-old actress’s life changed forever. The morning after the premiere, her phone was blowing up with calls. Paparazzi started chasing her every move. Her face was suddenly on the covers of Vogue, Elle, Vanity Fair, and directors lined up to cast that daring blonde who slapped DiCaprio and didn’t lose her cool.

@Matt Winkelmeyer/Getty Images

Margot woke up famous — and since then, she hasn’t left the covers of the world’s top magazines! Still, her fee at the time was significantly lower than DiCaprio’s — as IMDb reported, Margot Robbie Got Less Than $500K For The Wolf Of Wall Street While Leo Took Home $10 Million! Although, let’s be honest — even Margot’s paycheck was astronomical! But maybe Leo shared his with her — after all, the media wrote that a romance had started between them at that time...

From On-Screen Passion to Real Romance?

In 2013, Hollywood was buzzing with rumors: Leonardo DiCaprio and Margot Robbie, stars of the scandalous The Wolf of Wall Street, might have crossed the line from on-screen chemistry to real feelings — New York Post reported. According to the publication, 38-year-old DiCaprio was seen on the balcony of the 23-year-old actress’s apartment in Union Square, New York. An insider claimed he spent the entire night at Margot’s place.
— “He stayed overnight,” said a source close to the actors’ circle.

@nypost.com

The intrigue had actually started a month earlier, when Robbie accompanied DiCaprio to his birthday party in Las Vegas. Witnesses said the pair barely separated all evening. Neither Margot nor Leo ever commented on the relationship — and who knows, maybe there really was something more than just an on-screen connection.

Margot and Leo Kissed for 17 Hours!

However, Margot did comment on kissing DiCaprio — and for good reason, because those kisses lasted for 17 hours straight! And as it turned out, the glossy scene wasn’t the whole truth.
Robbie recalled with humor that the kisses with Leonardo DiCaprio had to be filmed over and over again, until the director was satisfied with the perfect take.

@worldofmodus/Instagram.com

— “My girlfriends bombarded me with questions: ‘So, how was it? Is he an amazing kisser?’ And I told them honestly: ‘He’s incredible… on screen.’
But in real life, it was hot, sweaty, and totally unromantic. No fireworks, sadly,” — the actress laughed. However, she also said that Leo supported her immensely...

Support From DiCaprio

As TMZ wrote, Margot admitted that Leo always supported her, guided her, and created a safe atmosphere on set.
— “From day one, he took me under his wing. That meant everything — especially considering I had to film nude scenes,” said Margot.

@worldofmodus/Instagram.com

And although the road to success wasn’t easy, Margot said she didn’t regret a thing:
— “I still pinch myself to believe this isn’t a dream. That was my first big role — and it changed my whole life.”

From Circus School to Olympic Ice

What truly mattered was that Margot was never afraid to transform into wildly different characters! When Suicide Squad hit the screens in 2016, the world saw a completely different Margot Robbie. Vibrant, insane, provocative — her Harley Quinn became an instant sensation!

@Aggravating_Duck_895/reddit.com

But behind the image of Joker’s seductive girlfriend was serious preparation: to play the bold criminal, Margot had to recall childhood stunts and literally stand on her hands again. No surprise — as a child, Robbie attended circus school, where she learned incredible tricks and earned an official acrobat diploma by the age of eight. Those skills suddenly came in handy years later on set, where she had to hang upside down and do flips without a stunt double!

A Rat in a Box From Jared Leto

The atmosphere on the Suicide Squad set was… intense, to say the least. Jared Leto, who played the Joker, decided to dive into his character before shooting even started. He sent his co-stars “gifts” from his character.
Will Smith received a box of bullets, and Margot — a love letter and a mysterious little black box.

@Getty Images

— “When I opened it, a rat jumped out. A live one! I almost screamed across the entire set. That’s when I thought: ‘Is this a movie or an insane asylum?’” — the actress laughed. But neither the bizarre gifts nor the physical strain stopped her from giving it her all — and launching a true Harley-mania around the world.

Did “Harley Quinn” Have a Fling With Prince Harry?

That same year, Margot didn’t just conquer the world with her portrayal of Harley Quinn — she might have also stolen the heart of… Prince Harry! After the release of Suicide Squad in 2016, Margot Robbie admitted she was texting with Queen Elizabeth II’s grandson — Prince Harry himself.

@ Getty Images / AP

As E! News reported, according to the actress, the young royal was completely smitten with her.
— “He replies very quickly. Unlike me — I might text back in four days… or four weeks,” the then-26-year-old Robbie laughed in an interview with E! News. Hmm, interesting...

When the Prince Was Just a Party Guy

Their acquaintance, by the way, happened entirely by accident — at a loud party in London, where Margot had been invited by her friend Cara Delevingne. According to the actress, she chatted with Harry for nearly an hour without having the slightest idea who he was.

@hellogiggles.com

— “How was I supposed to know he was a prince? He wasn’t wearing a crown!” — Robbie recalled with a grin. She added that she just saw a sweet red-haired guy with grey eyes — not exactly someone you instantly recognize as British royalty.

Don’t Tell the Parents

Surprisingly, even after this encounter, Robbie didn’t tell her family about meeting the prince. According to her, her family was living their own life — and much more interested in the family dog Murphy than in any London parties.
— “When we meet, they talk about their life, about the dog... And somehow, it just didn’t seem important to mention I was now texting a prince,” the actress said. Naturally, many believed Margot’s story was just a publicity stunt or a slight exaggeration.
 

 @allure.com

But who knows? What really happened between Margot and Harry is still an open question — and neither of them is likely to comment on it now, especially since both are in relationships...

“I, Tonya”: The First Oscar Nomination!

Still, Margot somehow managed to both text with a prince and march forward toward her first Oscar! Her next big project was the complete opposite of a wild blockbuster. 

@ Courtesy of Neon

In 2017, Robbie played the scandalous figure skater Tonya Harding in the biographical drama I, Tonya — and not only starred in the film but also served as its producer. This role earned her her first Academy Award nomination for Best Actress! Incredibly, she did all the skating herself — a true workaholic!

Skating Like an Olympic Champion

Interestingly, before filming, Robbie had never figure skated in her life.
Although she used to play in an amateur hockey team, figure skates turned out to be a completely different beast.
— “Skating on those is like learning to walk all over again. Now imagine you also have to do jumps, spins — and act out emotional scenes at the same time,” she recalled in an interview with ELLE.

@Allstar/Clubhouse Pictures

Despite the challenges, Robbie went from absolute beginner to nearly Olympic-level athlete — and once again proved she could transform not just on screen but even on ice!

Margot Managed to Succeed Everywhere

While in 2016 Margot Robbie was working around the clock on the Oscar-winning I, Tonya, the actress was shining not only on screen but also in her personal life. 

While cameras were capturing her every move on the red carpet, she was secretly preparing for one of the most important events of her life — her wedding. And it all began much earlier, during a completely different project...

A Chance Encounter That Changed Everything

In 2013, Margot was working on the film French Suite. It was there that she met her future husband — Tom Ackerley, who worked as an assistant director. As it often happens on film sets, a friendship blossomed between colleagues. The crew became so close that just three days after wrapping up filming, they rented a house together and moved in as one fun-loving group.

@ James Devaney/GC Images/Getty Images

Margot and Tom were just roommates at first. But after a year of friendship and living together, feelings started to spark between them. In the beginning, they tried to keep their relationship under wraps, pretending to remain “just friends.” But as we all know, secrets don’t stay hidden for long…

Romance on a Kayak High

Their relationship became official when the couple was spotted on vacation in Hawaii. Paparazzi caught Margot and Tom during an extreme kayaking ride, and later — in line for fries and beer at a local supermarket. Glamorous? Not exactly. But what it lacked in glitz, it made up for in real love — sporty, adventurous, and refreshingly unpretentious.

@splashnews

Margot later confessed in an interview that before meeting Tom, she considered herself a born loner, and any attempts at relationships made her feel “physically nauseous.” However, as in any good Hollywood story, love won in the end. Even if not right away.

A Wedding Without Instagram or Journalists

On December 19, 2016, after two years of a secret romance, Margot Robbie got married. But don’t expect a fairytale castle, a crowd of celebrities, or a string of limousines. The wedding took place in an Australian estate in Coorabell — the actress’s hometown — in complete secrecy. Even the invited guests didn’t know the exact address — they were gathered at designated points and taken to the venue by special transport. Phones and cameras? Forget it. Everything was handed over to security.

@Diimex

Under tents by the pool, guests celebrated from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. The bride stunned in a ‘70s-inspired off-the-shoulder dress with a deep neckline. No veil, with her hair casually pulled back — the definition of effortlessly chic. Only a couple of photos made it online. Robbie and Ackerley flatly refused to sell any exclusives, despite being offered huge sums by global tabloids. Stylish and deeply in love — that’s how Margot was remembered that day.

Business — the Feminine Way

After the wedding, the actress didn’t fade into her husband’s shadow. On the contrary — she took her career to the next level. Together with Tom, she founded the production company LuckyChap Entertainment. What made the project special? A focus on female-driven stories and women’s directorial voices.

One of the studio’s major hits was Promising Young Woman starring Carey Mulligan. The film received five Oscar nominations, and Margot herself was a co-producer. The next loud success was the iconic Barbie, which not only conquered the world but also grossed $1.447 billion — an absolute record for Warner Bros. and for a female director, Greta Gerwig. And of course, we couldn't help but dive deeper into this cinematic phenomenon!

Casting Swaps and Cancelled Scripts

Funny enough, Margot Robbie wasn’t the first choice to play Barbie. Back in 2016, the studio offered the lead role to Amy Schumer. She was even invited to rewrite the script to fit her style! But creative differences derailed the project — Amy declined, and Barbie was left without a star. That was the case until 2019, when Margot stepped in.

And as we now know, everything fell into place perfectly. Because with her, Barbie became more than just a doll — she became an icon, a feminist, a meme, a TikTok sensation, and a billion-dollar hit!

Margot Robbie’s Pink Dictatorship

What went on behind the scenes was just as wild as what we saw on screen. To maintain the right mood, Margot Robbie implemented a mandatory “pink day” on set — every Wednesday, the crew had to wear something pink. 

Style violators were... fined. All penalty fees were donated to charity by the actress.

The Film Caused a... Pink Paint Shortage!

By the way, Barbie Land wasn’t CGI — it was built for real! And so much pink was used on set that paint suppliers around the world started to panic.

@ warnerbros.fandom.com

— “The world ran out of pink paint,” declared director Greta Gerwig — and she wasn’t joking. The pink shortage became a real issue, even covered in news reports.

One of the Richest Actresses in the World!

According to Daily Mail, Margot Robbie earned around $12.5 million just for Barbie, and in 2019, she was included in the list of the highest-paid actresses in the world! And that’s not all!

@Robin L Marshall/Getty Images

As Daily Mail also noted, in 2020 Margot was named the hardest-working actress in Hollywood. She ranked fifth overall, behind industry giants like Nicolas Cage and Brad Pitt. In just 5 years — 15 feature films, a short film, 2 documentaries, and work as a producer. An incredible pace.

A Workaholic Without the Glamour

But despite all this — off camera, Margot remains a totally down-to-earth girl. She loves jeans, sneakers, beer, and fast food. She’s a huge hockey fan, plays in an amateur league, and roots for the New York Rangers. In real life, the actress is very different from the glamorous image we’re used to seeing on screen. 

@people.com

What’s more, Playboy magazine invited her multiple times to be on the cover — but the actress refused: her body is not a product but a tool in the service of art.

Beauty Secrets

At 35, Margot looks like a teenage girl! That’s not only thanks to good genetics but also her personal effort. And the star is not shy about sharing her beauty secrets — most of which will definitely surprise you.

@vogue.com

Her flawless appearance never leaves magazine covers, and her slender figure sparks envy even among the most loyal green-smoothie fans. But what’s behind that glow and those perfect curves? The answer is simple — no magic pills, just discipline… and a couple of unexpected rules that break all traditional diet norms.

Margot Doesn’t Eat Breakfast!

As Elle reports, Margot believes — forget everything you’ve heard from nutritionists about “breakfast being the most important meal of the day.” Margot Robbie’s personal trainer — David Higgins (yes, the same one who once worked with Claudia Schiffer and Naomi Campbell) — considers that mantra a marketer’s invention.

@skurtgangg/Instagram.com

— “Breakfast is not a required element. If you skip it, your body starts to use already stored energy, and metabolism, on the contrary, speeds up,” says Higgins. In his view, intermittent fasting — especially in the morning — helps not only to shed extra weight but also improves digestion. That’s why Margot’s day starts closer to noon — without omelets, cereal, or croissants.

Protein and Simplicity — The Key to a Perfect Lunch

Around 12 p.m., when most people are already thinking about their second coffee, Margot turns to immunity: her diet includes a smoothie made from berries, greens, and vitamins.

@skurtgangg/Instagram.com

As for a real lunch — it’s strictly protein-based. No complicated sides, just benefit and taste. One of her favorite options is baked chicken in lemon marinade with a light salad of cucumbers and tomatoes, dressed with olive oil. Sometimes — just a salad with chicken. Quick, simple, and without harmful sauces!

Dinner Is Margot’s Main Meal

Margot is convinced: it’s not breakfast but dinner that is the most important meal. Unlike many stars who nibble on lettuce leaves at night, Robbie isn’t afraid of hearty dishes. 

@bestofmargotrobbie/Instagram.com

More than that, she doesn’t deny herself pleasure — her favorite dinner is tuna steak and roasted baby potatoes. Yes — potatoes, full of carbs! And if there’s seafood on the table — a glass of white wine or rosé is also welcome. Well, that sounds delicious!

Dancing, Ballet, and a Jump Rope!

Margot Robbie’s beauty is not just about genes and great lighting during photoshoots. The actress doesn’t hide it — she tries to stay physically active, even during the most intense filming periods. The main rule — joy. In her words, if a workout turns into torture, there will be no result whatsoever.

@pxfuel.com

When Margot is in Los Angeles, she always visits her favorite trainer — Andie Hecker, a former ballerina who now leads unique weighted Pilates sessions. In her workouts, Andie uses ballet techniques that help engage the whole body, improve posture, and build flexibility. — “Stretching is like a reboot for the entire body. After these sessions, I feel renewed,” the actress admits.

A Friendship That Started With a Tattoo

Despite her careful attention to her body, Margot is not afraid to decorate it with tattoos — sometimes the most unexpected ones. Margot Robbie and Cara Delevingne met on the set of Suicide Squad in 2016. You’d think — two stars, each with a bright personality — but contrary to all stereotypes, they didn’t compete, they instantly connected.

@caradelevingne/Instagram.com

To somehow mark their new close friendship, Cara suggested getting… a tattoo. Nothing ordinary — just a tiny smiley face on the big toe. And, of course, Margot agreed!

Margot After Giving Birth

Margot Robbie has always amazed fans with her figure, and even after pregnancy, she proved that you can be a young mom and still look like you stepped off a magazine cover. In October of last year, the 34-year-old actress became a mom for the first time — and did it so discreetly that many only learned about the new family member months later.

@margotrobbieess/Instagram.com

The baby boy was reportedly born on October 17 but both during the pregnancy and after the birth, Margot and her husband Tom Ackerley guarded their privacy carefully. No loud announcements, no interviews or photoshoots with a baby bump — only a few rare paparazzi shots, in which the actress looked relaxed and comfortably happy at home.

Working While Everyone Else Is Resting

If anyone thinks that after giving birth Margot decided to take a career break — they’re deeply mistaken. Just two months after giving birth, the actress returned to the set — and not just for a light cameo but for a serious project. Her new challenge became the film Wuthering Heights, which we already mentioned at the beginning of the article.

@margotrobbieess/Instagram.com

As you remember... Of course, there was criticism. But the actress herself doesn’t seem to pay attention to the hate. For her, the most important thing is diving into work, and her attitude proves: she’s not just a pretty face but an actress with deep professionalism.
By the way... the premiere of the film has already been announced — February 13, 2026. And even those who doubted it admit: with that level of dedication, the result simply can’t be mediocre.

Between Hollywood and Home

Right now, the actress lives in Australia, closer to her family. Together with her husband and their baby, they’re spending the summer in the resort town of Gold Coast — the place where Robbie spent her childhood. Despite the crazy pace of work, the actress tries to spend as much time with her loved ones as possible.

@margotrobbieess/Instagram.com

Margot finds a balance between career, motherhood, and personal life — and does it without loud declarations. On-screen — Barbie, a superstar, a millionaire producer. Off-screen — a girl who laughs at her uneven tattoos, sits on the beach with friends, and calmly walks around with no makeup.
Perhaps that’s where her phenomenon lies. Margot Robbie stays true to herself — and that’s exactly why people truly love her.
