Margot Robbie 'pregnant with first child with husband Tom Ackerley'

Barbie star Margot Robbie is reportedly pregnant with her first child.

The Oscar-nominated actress has been married to British film producer Tom Ackerley since 2016.

People reported that sources have confirmed she is expecting following intense online speculation over the weekend after she was seen with what appeared to be a baby bump.

On Sunday, the Suicide Squad star was photographed showing her midriff while carefully boarding a boat during a holiday in Lake Como with her husband.

In images obtained by MailOnline, she looked chic with her stomach on display in a white crop top.

Robbie and Ackerley met in 2013 while filming Suite Française, a World War II romantic drama in Belgium, where he was an assistant director and she starred as Celine.

Known for keeping their personal lives private, the couple did not announce their engagement and were married in a secret ceremony in Byron Bay, Australia.

However, Ackerley recently offered a rare comment about their relationship, having been asked how the star couple balance their work and home lives.

He told the Sunday Times in June: “[We spend] 24 hours a day [together]. It’s seamless. We don’t have a toggle on, toggle off. It’s all become one thing.”

Previously, Robbie revealed that her relationship with "the best-looking guy in London" was unexpected.

She told Vogue in 2016: “I was the ultimate single gal. The idea of relationships made me want to vomit. And then this crept up on me. We were friends for so long. I was always in love with him.

“But I thought, ‘Oh, he would never love me back. Don’t make it weird, Margot. Don’t be stupid and tell him that you like him.’

“And then it happened, and I was like, ‘Of course we’re together. This makes so much sense, the way nothing has ever made sense before.’”

A year after meeting, they co-founded the production company LuckyChap Entertainment, which has produced major films including Barbie, I, Tonya, and Birds of Prey, which Robbie has starred in.

The Standard has contacted Margot Robbie’s rep for comment.
