Margot Robbie has officially appeared under her husband Tom Ackerley’s surname in British corporate records, nearly a decade after the couple tied the knot. The Barbie star is now listed as Margot Elise Ackerley in public records connected to LuckyChap Entertainment, the production company she co-founded with Ackerley, Josey McNamara and Sophia Kerr.
The name update was reflected in a Companies House filing submitted on September 22, 2026. According to the filing, the director information was changed on January 12, 2026, replacing her previous listing as Margot Elise Robbie.
The filing does not state why the change was made. It also does not indicate that Robbie intends to use Ackerley as her professional surname.
For her acting and producing career, she continues to be publicly credited as Margot Robbie.

Robbie has been listed as a director of LuckyChap Entertainment since May 2015. The production company was established in 2014 and was built by Robbie and Ackerley alongside McNamara and Kerr.
