Robbie, who had been waiting for the right time to have kids, seemed happy with her apparel as she vacationed with her husband. In 2018, the actress spoke about where she wanted to be 30 years later.

Now that the moment is here, the “About Time” star is relishing it. The news that she and her husband were expecting their first child broke out in July 2024. The couple were then spotted in Lake Como, where she also wore an attire that displayed her baby bump.
She donned a cropped white T-shirt paired with black trousers, adding a touch of elegance with a black blazer. She accessorized with a cream leather bag, styled her blonde hair in a sleek, choppy cut, and chose a natural, radiant makeup look.
Her husband sweetly helped her down a boat, extending his hand for her to hold. The film producer looked dapper in a cream shirt and khaki trousers, smiling as they enjoyed their vacation together.

As Robbie and Ackerley worked together, the actress was still resistant to the idea of relationships, feeling unsettled by them.
However, she narrated, “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.'”
