Margot Robbie Has Three Siblings and Is Not Very Close with Her Dad
Most of Margot Robbie's siblings have not stayed down under while their sister conquered Hollywood as a leading lady and producer. Both her brothers are etching exciting careers in the industry.
Margot Robbie is the second youngest of four children of Scottish immigrants in Australia. Her sister is the lone Robbie sibling to skirt the limelight. Very little is known about her other than, like the actress, she is not interested in having any contact with their father.
The "Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey" star's parents split when she was very young. Her estranged father reportedly now lives down the street from her mother. The Aussie actress praises her physiotherapist mother every chance she gets.
Margot Robbie Has Two Brothers and One Sister
Growing up in close quarters with her siblings Lockie, Anya, and Cameron, Margot Robbie sought similar living arraignment far into adulthood as a high-earning actress. The four were raised in Dalby, Queensland, on Australia's Gold Coast.
The Academy Award-nominated star inadvertently recreated the chaos of her childhood by living with seven and "downsized" to four roommates. Even when she moved to LA with her husband, Tom Ackerley, there were always siblings or cousins on extended visits.
Unlike his sisters, Margot and Anya, Lockie has a relationship with their Scottish father, Doug Robbie, a wealthy sugarcane farmer who left the family when the actress was five. The stuntman thanked the "old boy" one Father's Day for the private school education he funded.
Her Brothers Also Found Careers in the Entertainment Industry
Lachlan "Lockie" Douglas Robbie is a stuntman and stayed with Margot in Los Angeles in 2019 when they worked together on "Birds of Prey." He praised his sister's professionalism, who was also a producer on the film, and thanked her for being part of the experience:
"To finally work alongside you was one of my high points. […] Ps, I'm sure you enjoyed the ability to spend 6 months beating me up guilt free."
Lockie's stunt credits include "Aquaman," "Alien: Covenant," and "Ticket to Paradise," on which he was also the stunt rigging coordinator. The 5'11" surfer had an unaccredited role in Taika Waititi's "Thor: Ragnarok" as a special abilities driver.
The youngest brother Cameron is an actor and model based in Australia. The model has walked the runway for retailer David Jones. He accompanied Margot Robbie to the 2020 BAFTAs and playfully jibed her on social media for losing twice the night while he had never lost out on a BAFTA.

His most recent project is the 2022 acclaimed short film "Mark Targets." He portrayed Jesse Porter on the Australian soap opera, "Neighbours," which was how his sister got her start in the industry at 17, in the role of Donna Freedman between 2008 and 2010.
