Margot Robbie's dating history: Actress was linked to Alexander Skarsgard and Will Smith before marriage
Margot Robbie has history of on-set romances
Margot Robbie, the radiant actress who gained prominence in 2013 with her role in Martin Scorsese's 'The Wolf of Wall Street', has an interesting romantic past. At present, the 'Barbie' actress is blissfully married to Tom Ackerley, whom she reportedly met the same year her career took off. They exchanged vows in a low-key ceremony in 2016 and have since evolved into a power couple in Hollywood. Prior to meeting her soulmate, Robbie had been associated with several men including Alexander Skarsgard and Will Smith. Here's the complete dating history of the 'Suicide Squad' star.
Will Smith
Margot Robbie and Will Smith reportedly found themselves under the spotlight in 2013, during the production of the action film 'Focus', after photos surfaced showing Will without a shirt and Margot lifting her shirt to reveal her lingerie. However, sources close to them reportedly maintained that their relationship was friendly and posed no threat to Smith's marriage. Besides, the actress, then 23, took to Twitter to refute the rumors. She asserted that there was "absolutely no truth" to the speculations, per People. "Been working non-stop, just catching my breath. There's absolutely no truth to the ridiculous rumor," the Australian actress wrote on X. "It’s disappointing that goofing around on set could be taken so out of context."
Alexander Skarsgard
Margot Robbie and Alexander Skarsgard, co-stars in 'The Legend of Tarzan', were rumored to have started dating during the film’s production. Though neither confirmed or denied the speculations, they were seen together on multiple occasions, exhibiting behavior resembling that of a couple. In January 2015, E! News reported that the pair were spotted kissing at a party during the Sundance Film Festival. "They were there late-night holding hands," a source revealed to the media outlet. "Margot and Alexander definitely looked like a couple. They were very touchy-feely and at one point were full on kissing!"
Henry Aitken
The Australian actress and Aitken, the son of a Banks Peninsula farmer, were rumored to have started a romance while working together on 'Z For Zachariah' in early 2014. However, the Daily Mail reported by March of the same year that the two had parted ways. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, 'The Wolf of Wall Street' star ended the relationship after shooting concluded. New Zealand's news website Stuff reported that Robbie was "swept off her feet" by Aitken during the film's production. The handsome brunette, who was reportedly working in the film's art department, is a local film industry professional. He is an alumnus of the New Zealand Film and Television School and his Facebook page once listed him as the art director for the multimedia production company Sakowski Studios, per Daily Mail. Now his profile reads, "Art Director at Film industry."
Tom Ackerley
Margot Robbie first crossed paths with Tom Ackerley on the set of the World War II drama 'Suite Francaise' in 2013. Their relationship reportedly blossomed into a romance in 2014, and they secretly tied the knot in 2016. In addition to their personal partnership, Margot and Tom also share a professional bond as co-owners of the production company LuckyChap Entertainment, per Geo News.
Matt Thompson
Margot's first known boyfriend was Matthew 'Matt' Thomson, whom she reportedly began dating in secondary school at Somerset College. Matt was Margot's first kiss and also accompanied her to her first school dance. Their relationship ended shortly before her debut in the soap opera 'Neighbours' in 2008, as per Affair Post. In a February 2015 interview with Daily Mail, Matt confessed that it feels "pretty cool" to be the first man to have shared a kiss with the now-famous actress and revealed he was her prom date. Reflecting on their shared past, he said, "I guess when you grow up with someone… she was always pretty special, but she was just a normal girl back then." He further revealed that they "dated for 'little bits and pieces' throughout their teens."
