The couple's love story began in 2013 on the set of the World War II drama "Suite Française." Robbie, starring in front of the camera, and Ackerley, serving as an assistant director, quickly formed a close bond.

Their relationship blossomed, leading to a private wedding ceremony in December 2016 in the picturesque surroundings of Byron Bay, Australia.
Now preparing to welcome their new addition, the couple continues to charm fans with their endearing displays of affection and support for each other.

However, the topic of children hasn't always been straightforward for Robbie. In a 2018 interview, she was asked about the possibility of having kids, to which she responded with a laugh, expressing a definitive "No! Definitely not."
When asked about her husband's feelings on the matter, Robbie shared an anecdote about how Ackerley had brought home a pit bull puppy from a shelter, despite already having a two-year-old dog.
She humorously recounted telling her husband that fostering the puppy for a week was manageable, but keeping her permanently was not, as it made her question their ability to handle children.
"You are now cementing in my mind that we cannot have kids. I can't cope with two puppies, let alone children!" she added, reflecting on the chaos of managing multiple pets.
In the past, Robbie had expressed her frustration with societal expectations regarding motherhood. In a conversation with Radio Times, she mentioned how, after getting married, the first question in almost every interview was about when she would have children.

She found this presumptive and shared her annoyance, stating, "I'm so angry that there's this social contract. 'You're married, now have a baby.' Don't presume. I'll do what I'm going to do."

Still, Robbie had looked into the future and imagined a large family gathering for Christmas dinner with many children. At the time, though, she was adamant that this vision was not something she was ready for.
As Robbie continues to live life on her own terms, she keeps winning over hearts with her remarkable acting talent and irresistible charm. In April, she made headlines when she debuted a striking new look: ginger hair with bangs, a bold change from her usual blonde locks.

Robbie showcased this fresh style while filming "A Big Bold Beautiful Journey" alongside the renowned actor Colin Farrell. She looked beautiful in a navy shirt, blue jeans, brown suede boots, and tasteful jewelry. Still, it was her vibrant new hair color that truly stole the show, sparking a flurry of admiration from fans online.

Many were thrilled to see Robbie's new hair. They took to the internet to share their excitement and compliments. "Ginger Margot Robbie. WE ARE SO BACKK," one fan wrote, showing just how much they loved the change.
Others were surprised and said things like, "No way!" and "OMG she looks so beautiful 😭." Another fan called her "the most beautiful woman ever."

To some, Robbie's ginger hair might seem new, but she has had dark hair before. In an interview with Elle magazine back in 2014, Robbie talked about changing her hair for her then-upcoming movie, "Z for Zachariah."
She explained how she had to dye her hair brown for her role and tried to get rid of the red color afterward. But the dye left her hair very dark, which she ended up liking.
The "Barbie" star also revealed that she used to dye her hair dark in high school. She disclosed, "I had it this color all through high school actually [...] I was devastated when I had to go blonde." Despite this, she grew to love being blonde over time.

In the same interview, she divulged how she likes trying out different hair colors. She confirmed that she doesn't "have a preference" because she likes "both." Robbie's ability to carry off various looks with confidence and grace makes her a source of inspiration for many.
