Margot Robbie: Marital dispute as a sweet secret

“Barbie” star Margot Robbie (33) and her husband Tom Ackerley (34) have had a scandal-free marriage since 2016. They only argue at home on one occasion, as Ackerley revealed. The Australian actress and the British producer regularly argue about which candy from their respective home countries is better.

Tim Tams vs. Penguins

Margot Robbie then votes for Tim Tams. The chocolate biscuits are a bestseller in her native Australia. They consist of two layers of sponge cake separated by a chocolate cream filling. Tom Ackerley then counters in a domestic dispute with Penguins from his British homeland. The snack is basically similar to Tim Tams, but is a bit thicker.

The tricky part: The Australian Tim Tams are based on the British Penguins. The inventor of the Tim Tams wanted to establish a sweet down under that was similar to the Penguin, only better. The rivalry between Penguin and Tim Tam is a classic in the relationship between Great Britain and Australia. Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley are not the only binational couple to argue about it.

Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley: Joint production company LuckyChap

Otherwise, Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley keep their private lives secret. They only reveal that they are stuck together 24 hours a day, unless professional commitments make it necessary for them to be apart.

The couple also works together. In 2014, they founded the production company LuckyChap Entertainment with producer friends Josey McNamara and Sophia Kerr.

With LuckyChap Entertainment, the busy couple not only produced Robbie’s mega-hit “Barbie”, but also the Amazon Prime phenomenon “Saltburn”.
