Margot Robbie quietly changes her name after nearly 10 years of marriage

Margot Robbie has officially adopted her husband’s surname in public corporate filings, nearly ten years after marrying film producer Tom Ackerley.

According to UK Companies House records for the couple’s production banner, LuckyChap Entertainment, the 36-year-old actress updated her official listing from “Margot Elise Robbie” to “Margot Elise Ackerley.” She had previously been registered under her maiden name since being appointed director of the company in May 2015. Despite the official update, she is expected to continue using “Margot Robbie” professionally.

The pair first met in 2013 on the set of the World War II drama Suite Française, where Robbie starred and Ackerley worked as an assistant director. Their professional acquaintance blossomed into a close friendship and eventual romance, culminating in an intimate wedding in Byron Bay, Australia, in December 2016. In October 2024, the notoriously private couple welcomed their first child together, a son.

Beyond their personal bond, the duo share a thriving Hollywood partnership. In 2014, they co-founded LuckyChap Entertainment alongside friends Josey McNamara and Sophia Kerr. The production company has backed major critical and box-office hits, including I, Tonya, Birds of Prey, Saltburn, and 2023’s global phenomenon Barbie. Their upcoming slate includes a live-action film adaptation of The Sims, an Ocean’s Eleven prequel, and a new Sleepy Hollow adaptation.

While Robbie once quipped in a 2016 Vogue interview that she was “the ultimate single gal” before falling for Ackerley, the two now describe their shared personal and professional lives as completely seamless—with Ackerley teasing in 2024 that their main household debate usually centers on whether Australian Tim Tams or British Penguins make the superior chocolate biscuit.
