Margot's Secret Heartache 'Tom's Movedout!'

The Aussie actress’ roc ky love-life puts a dampener on her career high

She should be feeling on top of the world with her first Oscar win potentially right around the corner, but behind the scenes, Margot Robbie is dealing with heartbreak as her marriage to assistant director Tom Ackerley unravels.

The Aussie actress’ burgeoning fame and her British husband’s resentment at being seen as “Mr Robbie” have reportedly been putting a major strain on their relationship for months. Now, a close friend of the couple tells Woman’s Day they’re “barely speaking”. What’s more, Tom’s walked out!

“Tom’s been struggling to deal with Margot’s surging fame since they moved to LA, and they’ve been growing apart over the last few months,” the friend says. “Tom’s been refusing to go to most social or work events with Margot, and he walked out on her just a few weeks before her Oscar nomination, which took all the happiness out of it for her.”

PRESSURES OF FAME

There have been claims of tension between the two – who married in Byron Bay in December 2016 – for a while now, as Margot’s red-hot Hollywood career continues to eclipse her husband’s film achievements.
