Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley said “I do” in a top-secret wedding located in the stunning hinterlands of Ewingsdale, Byron Bay on Monday, December 19.

And now, the stunning 26-year-old actress has taken to Instagram to welcome the newest member of the Robbie-Ackerley brood…

An angel-faced puppy!

Uploading a black-and-white portrait to Instagram, Margot revealed that she and her new-hubby have adopted a darling rescue pup, Boo Radley. The Aussie-sweetheart, who cut her teeth on the set of Neighbours, captioned the photo, “Our little rescue pup, Boo Radley.”

Would you have a look at those eyes? Those paws? Those floppy ears? That nose?!

The super-secretive couple wed in January after three years of dating.

It’s believed Margot’s mother Sarie and her two brothers, Lachlan and Cameron, gave her away and her sister Anya was the maid of honour, while the couple wrote their own romantic vows.

Speaking with Woman’s Day, friends close to the couple said it was a dream come true for the Queensland-born star, who is head-over-heels in love with her British beau.

“Tom initially wanted to get married in the UK, but he knows how much it means to Margot 
to tie the knot on home soil and how special it is for her, so he didn’t put up much of a fight.”

“They decided to marry around Christmas so they could spend time with both their families afterwards, which they’ve never done before,” our insider said, adding that guests, who flew to Oz in mid-December, were all sworn to secrecy to keep the big day private.

Earlier in the year, the star admitted her heart lies with Australia and she plans to raise her children here.

“They’ll be here. The kids will be in Australia,” she explained during a chat on The Project.

Adding that her partner feels the same.

“He loves Australia. He’s like, ‘I don’t know why anyone leaves Australia!'”

As for how her family get on with British-born Tom, Margot says they adore him and aren’t afraid to share some friendly banter with him.

“The family give him hell for being a pommie! When he comes for Christmas everybody’s like, ‘Oh, the pommie!'”
