Australian actress Margot Robbie expertly dodged an interviewer’s personal question about her s** life with husband Tom Ackerley.

During a pre-recorded interview on TV programme The Project, Carrie Bickmore asked the 29-year-old about life at home with her English husband.

Specifically, she asked if they ever ‘Netflix and chill’, a term that has come to mean watching streaming content with someone before engaging in s**ual activity.

Robbie, who was clearly uncomfortable with the question, responded:

‘We don’t get as much downtime as we probably like, but we both really like what we do.

We also have a lot of time to chill – actually that’s a lie we don’t have time to chill – but we have a lot of fun and we love what we do.’

After the interview, Bickmore’s colleague, presenter Peter Helliar, jokingly asked if she had forgotten what the term “Netflix and chill” actually means. Bickmore laughed and replied: ‘Perhaps I just meant hang on the couch instead of having action on a couch.’

Robbie and Ackerley, a film producer, got married in Byron Bay, Australia, in 2016, three years after meeting on the set of the World War II drama Suite Française. Last month, the actress revealed her bedtime rituals and what annoys her husband behind closed doors.

Discussing her love for her childhood stuffed rabbit, Bunny, Robbie said that Ackerley is not a fan of the toy.

‘[My husband] always throws Bunny out of the bed because he obviously thinks it’s a tad ridiculous that I still sleep with Bunny,’ the star said on W magazine’s podcast Five Things With Lynn Hirschberg.

‘Maybe he’s a little jealous that Bunny always gets priority place in the bed. He thinks I’m asleep and he’ll throw Bunny out of the bed and I get so cross with him.’

The actress, who received an Oscar nomination for her role in I, Tonya, has been vocal about her privacy and has refused to discuss her personal life in interviews.

In a 2016 interview with Vanity Fair, she said: ‘I don’t really like to talk about my personal life. It’s a strange thing to want to reveal about yourself.’

Robbie also spoke to the magazine about how she felt that Hollywood was s**ist.

‘You hear things like, “There aren’t any good roles for women, women aren’t really a box office draw,” and you start to believe it,’ she said. ‘I just don’t think that’s true.’

In 2018, she produced and starred in the female-led movie Terminal, which she has called her passion project.

‘I thought, “I’m in a unique position to get these projects made and make headway on the female stories I want to tell,”’ she told Harper’s Bazaar.
