Margot Robbie, known for her roles in blockbuster hits like “Barbie” and “Birds of Prey,” openly expressed her admiration for her husband, Tom Ackerley, at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards. The 33-year-old actress, who attended the event with Ackerley, took a moment on the red carpet to share her feelings about her non-Hollywood spouse.
“I am so lucky,” Robbie told E! News, emphasizing her gratitude for being married to someone who isn’t part of the Hollywood scene. According to the star, Ackerley prefers being behind the camera and remains unfazed by the glitz and glamour of the entertainment industry. “He’s just the best,” she added.
Robbie playfully used the term ‘normie’ to describe Ackerley, highlighting the joy of having conversations beyond the spotlight with friends who appreciate a different perspective. “It’s more fun just to hang out and talk about other stuff,” she explained, expressing the normalcy and depth in her relationship.
In a previous interview with Vogue, Robbie shared the story of her surprising journey to marriage with Ackerley, admitting that she had always been in love with him but hesitated to confess her feelings. “I was always in love with him, but I thought, Oh, he would never love me back,” she revealed. However, destiny had other plans, and the couple tied the knot in December 2016. Reflecting on their union, Robbie said, “Of course we’re together. This makes so much sense, the way nothing has ever made sense before.”
