AceShowbiz - Margot Robbie, the acclaimed actress best known for her roles in "Barbie", "The Wolf of Wall Street" and "Suicide Squad", is expecting her first child with husband Tom Ackerley. Sources have now confirmed that the 34-year-old star is pregnant.

Robbie was recently spotted in Italy sporting a baby bump, and insiders revealed that she and Ackerley have "wanted to start a family for quite some time." The couple, who is notoriously private, is reportedly thrilled that the news is out. "Family means a lot to both of them and they knew early on in their relationship being parents was something they really wanted," a source told PEOPLE.

Margot and Tom first crossed paths in 2013 on the set of the World War II drama "Suite Francaise". Robbie was acting in the film, while Ackerley was an assistant director. Their relationship blossomed over the next few years, and in December 2016, they tied the knot in a private ceremony in Australia's Byron Bay. The two never announced their engagement prior to the wedding, emphasizing their preference for keeping personal milestones private.

Professionally, the duo co-founded LuckyChap Entertainment along with Robbie's childhood friend Sophia Kerr and Josey McNamara. Their production company has been behind acclaimed projects like "Promising Young Woman", "Saltburn", and of course, "Barbie". In a recent interview with the Sunday Times, Ackerley shared insights into their working relationship, noting, "[We spend] 24 hours a day [together]. It's seamless. We don't have a toggle on, toggle off. It's all become one thing."

Despite her busy schedule, Robbie has always expressed a desire to have a large family. In a 2016 interview with the Daily Telegraph, she said, "I grew up in a family of four [kids], so that sounds like a good number... I know that once I have kids, they'll be my priority, so I want to do the family thing later." Now, with this exciting news, it looks like that dream is becoming a reality.

While representatives for the couple did not immediately respond to requests for comments, the joy and anticipation surrounding this new chapter in Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley's life are palpable. Here's wishing the couple all the best as they embark on this thrilling journey into parenthood!
