This is wonderful news for Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley. The couple has just welcomed their first child, a little boy born on October 17, 2024. According to information from the Mail on Sunday, the actress went into labor two weeks before the expected date but everything went well. Friends and family have remained discreet to preserve their privacy during this very special time.
Tom Ackerley spotted shopping for baby
Just days after the birth, the 34-year-old dad was spotted near their Venice Beach home, stocking up on eco-friendly diapers from Coterie. This brand prides itself on using “clean and sustainable” ingredients with diapers made from 25% plant-based materials.
Their model still costs £70 for 186 diapers, the equivalent of a month, compared to £19.28 for 108 Huggies diapers. But when you love, you don't count! Tom Ackerley was also seen with a box of cigars and a bottle of wine, probably to properly celebrate the arrival of his son.
Grandparents soon on site to meet their 12th grandchild
According to a source close to the couple, Margot Robbie was impatiently awaiting this moment: “Margot is really looking forward to being a mother“. Despite her pregnancy, the Barbie star continued to work on different projects, while juggling hospital visits. Her last public appearance was on October 13, 2024.
The grandparents, who still live in Surrey where Tom grew up, are now preparing to fly to Los Angeles to meet their 12th grandchild. A wonderful moment in perspective for the whole family!
A look back at the beautiful love story of Margot and Tom
It was in 2013 on the set of Suite Française that Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley met for the first time. At the time, she was in front of the camera and he was an assistant director. Their relationship then solidified when they moved in together with other friends into a shared flat in Clapham, south London. A period that Margot describes as “the best days of his life“. The couple married in 2016 and have since produced several projects through their company LuckyChap Entertainment, including the series Dollface for Hulu.
In an interview with Vogue, Margot Robbie looked back on the beginnings of their romance: “I was the ultimate bachelorette. The very idea of a relationship made me want to vomit. And then it happened without warning. We had been friends for so long. I was always in love with him, but I thought, 'Oh, he'll never love me back. Don't make things weird, Margot. Don't be stupid and tell him you love him.' And then it happened, and I was like, 'Of course we're together. It makes so much sense, like nothing ever had before.'” A beautiful story which continues today with the arrival of their first child.
