Margot Robbie, the acclaimed actress known for her roles in blockbuster films, appears to have officially adopted her husband Tom Ackerley’s surname. This development comes just months before the couple marks their tenth wedding anniversary in December.


Recent filings with the UK’s Companies House reveal that Robbie is now referred to as “Margot Elise Ackerley” in the official documents associated with LuckyChap Entertainment, the production company she founded along with Ackerley. The company has been instrumental in bringing various successful projects to life, including the hit film “Barbie”.
Rumours surrounding Robbie’s name change have circulated for several years. Speculation began as early as 2018 when her name was listed as “Margot Ackerley” on a seating plan at a friend’s wedding. This sparked conversations about whether Robbie had opted to use her husband’s surname in private life.
Despite the apparent change, it is believed that Robbie will continue to professionally identify by her maiden name, “Robbie.” She was credited as “Margot Robbie” for her role in the newly released Amazon Prime Video drama series “Sterling Point,” which premiered on August 5 this year. It is evident that she aims to maintain a distinction between her personal and professional identities.
Ackerley, who is also 36 years old, serves as an executive producer on “Sterling Point,” highlighting the collaborative nature of their personal and professional lives. The couple initially crossed paths on the set of the World War II film “Suite Française” in 2013, where Ackerley worked as an assistant director and Robbie starred as Céline Joseph. Their relationship blossomed from this point, leading to the establishment of LuckyChap Entertainment just a year later.
The couple’s production company has enjoyed substantial success, creating film and television projects that frequently feature Robbie herself. Notable works include “I, Tonya” and “Birds of Prey,” both of which showcased Robbie’s versatility and talent as an actress. Ackerley has previously described their work life, stating, “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.”
Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley tied the knot in a private ceremony in Byron Bay, Australia, back in December 2016. Following the wedding, Robbie shared the news on Instagram, showcasing her ring and revealing her joy. Although they tend to keep the details of their marriage under wraps, Robbie has spoken fondly about their relationship, describing marriage as “the most fun ever.”
The couple prioritises quality time together, regardless of the demands of their careers. “Even if we both have to fly to a country in between where we both are for one night, we’ll do it and then fly back to work the next day,” Robbie explained in an interview with Porter magazine in 2018. Their commitment to communication is evident, as they reportedly talk on the phone every day.
Recently, they welcomed their first child, a son, born on October 17, 2024. The couple’s dedication to building a family has been a shared desire since early in their relationship. A source close to the family confirmed that parenthood was a significant goal for them both.
As Robbie continues to balance her personal life with her thriving career, it remains to be seen how her name change will affect her public persona. Sources have not yet received a response from Robbie’s representatives regarding the recent developments.
As they navigate their evolving lives, Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley’s partnership stands as an emblem of both personal and professional synergy, illustrating how love can flourish in both spheres.
