Margot Robbie has opened up about the unique challenges of returning to work shortly after becoming a mother.

Speaking to British Vogue, the Australian actress shared her experience filming the new adaptation of Wuthering Heights just three months after giving birth to her first child with husband Tom Ackerley in October 2024.

"I was three months postpartum when we started shooting. So I was in a very different headspace. I didn't do my usual routine. It was more haphazard," Robbie revealed to the outlet.

The actress admitted she felt nervous about being ready for the role, telling director Emerald Fennell, "What if I'm not prepared enough?"

Robbie explained that Fennell's response helped ease her worries: "She kept saying, 'I don't want you to prepare. I just need you to be in the moment.' It was a lovely way of relieving my anxiety. It was about being in my body as opposed to my head."

Robbie and Ackerley welcomed their son on October 17, 2024, though the couple has kept his name private.
