“It’s a common theme, isn’t it?” Robbie noted. “I hate—hate—being alone.”
Close quarters don’t bother her, either. After Barbie wrapped in 2022, she and Ackerley took the British Pullman from London and then overnighted on the Orient Express from Paris to Venice. Then, on a trip to Japan, they rode the seven-car Seven Stars across the island of Kyushu.
“All I want to do,” Robbie explained to Vogue“is live on a train.”
Eating also factors heavily into their relationship, both abroad (they waited in line for three and a half hours to sample udon carbonara in Tokyo) and at home, where she tends to steer clear of the kitchen.
“My husband is a phenomenal cook,” Robbie raved on a February episode of the Table Manners podcast. “He could be a chef, he is so good. We are like a perfect match.”
But she didn’t marry him for his knife skills, noting that she didn’t even know he was a great cook until after they had swapped vows.
“He spends two days making a spaghetti bolognese,” she explained. “He does a three-day fried rice with Korean short ribs. He does steak better than any restaurant I’ve ever been to!”
