Margot Robbie recalls being ‘banned’ from Clapham clubs during wild London years
The 'Barbie' star shares a hilarious clubbing mishap on the latest episode of the Table Manners podcast
Margot Robbie has looked back on her wilder days in London, revealing she was once kicked out of “most of the clubs in Clapham”, including the iconic Infernos.
The Wuthering Heights star opened up about her party years while appearing on the Table Manners podcast with Jessie and Lennie Ware, reminiscing about life before fame fully took hold.

“Within about 15 minutes, we got kicked out,” she said. “And while we're getting dragged out by security, I was screaming, ‘But this is Infernos, you can’t get kicked out of Infernos.’”
According to Robbie, the bouncer responded bluntly: “Look, we allow most things, but when your friend does [redacted], then we kick you out.” Her reaction? “Okay, fair enough!”
Though she didn’t reveal what exactly her friend did to spark the ejection, Robbie admitted the incident was far from unique.
“Most of the clubs in Clapham, I’d say, have kicked us out,” she laughed. “For a while we were banned at a number of places.”
Even after Robbie briefly returned to the United States, the friends were determined to stay close to their favorite haunt.
“The guys were like, ‘Oh, it’s a sign this place is down the road from Infernos,’” she recalled. “So we literally signed our lease just because it was down the road from Infernos.”
While the Oscar-nominated actress has long since swapped late-night club bans for red carpets and film sets, a mischievous streak still lingers. Ahead of her 2016 wedding to Tom Ackerley, her friends organized
