Their balancing of a successful professional life with a sweet-seeping romance is simply inspiring.
Speaking recently to The Times of London, Ackerley explained how their personal and professional lives have come together. “It’s seamless,” he said. “We don’t have a toggle on, toggle off. It’s all become one thing.” The harmony in this personal and business life has laid a foundation so much that it has made the journey even more special.
Robbie spoken several times about the perks of having Ackerley by her side. Talking to E! News at this January’s Critics Choice Awards, she gushed,
“I am so lucky.” Speaking on what it is like to have a husband not in the acting business, she answered, “He likes being behind the camera.” She went on—and continued praising him: “Any of this stuff does not faze him; he’s just the best … I love the word ‘normie.'”.
Margot Robbie‘s career has been nothing short of phenomenal. She was born on July 2, 1990, in Australia. Her acting career began as one of the lead roles in the Australian television series “Neighbours” in 2008. Her luck proved brilliant when she did Martin Scorsese’s “The Wolf of Wall Street” in 2013 with Leonardo DiCaprio. The film simply left people in awe of her performances. After this film, she showcased her versatility and talent by working on different projects.
Her notable performances include playing the role of Harley Quinn in the fan favorite Suicide Squad and the lead figure skater Tonya Harding in the Academy Award-nominated for Best Actress “I, Tonya.” Her portrayals of Queen Elizabeth I in Mary Queen of Scots and Sharon Tate in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood made her truly one of the leading ladies of Hollywood.
However, she has remained as down-to-earth as one can be—incredibly successful. Of course, none of it came easy. Before getting popular in Hollywood, Margot spent more than ten intense years churning out work in Australia. She had to get her very first role at 16 without representation or an agent, so she was hungry for acting.
Fans know Margot to be full of life and a bit adventurous. One very memorable story from her time on the set of “Wolf of Wall Street” is how she got up at 9 a.m. with three shots of tequila to get ready for one of the daunting scenes with Leonardo DiCaprio. Moreover, her commitment to what she does and the depth she’ll go into have made her one of the sexiest stars in the business.
