Congratulations have been pouring out all over the world for Margot Robbie after she confirmed that she's expecting a baby over the weekend.
But an old clip that has resurfaced online shows the Margot Robbie we've all come to know and love in a different light, and fans can't believe how different her accent sounds.
The 34-year-old Australian Barbie star is expecting a baby with her husband, year-old film producer Tom Ackerley.
The two are clearly huge fans of keeping their private lives under wraps, as they embarked on a secret romance in the early days, enjoyed a low-key wedding, and with PEOPLE now reporting that Robbie is expecting a child - photos show she's already sporting quite the bump.

The accents we're used to hearing from Robbie in blockbusters such as the aforementioned Oscar-winning Barbie, and the Wolf of Wall Street, are quite different to the real thing, as we're reminded she's just that good of an actress.
Robbie, alongside fellow Aussie actor Liam Hemsworth, both cut their teeth on the Melbourne-based soap, Neighbours, and a clip has resurfaced showing the two letting their Aussie accents run riot.
The ultimate throwback video, starring Robbie as Donna Freedman and Hemsworth as Josh Taylor back in the noughties has left fans shocked.
In the clip, the pair are shown to be bickering over their mutual friend Bridget and her new boyfriend, Declan.
Donna then whips out a timeless gesture and says: “Talk to the hand.”
She proceeds to tells him to ‘cut the pity party’ while Josh argues he’s ‘just trying to make polite conversation’.
Hemsworth's Aussie accent makes an appearance as he labels Bridget as ‘not that innocent.'
Robbie then chides that he’s ‘just trying to get his spokes on Bridget’.
Many fans commented on the resurfaced video to say how ‘weird’ it was to hear them speaking in their Aussie accents, with one cutting straight to the chase and admitting: “I forgot Margot is Aussie."
Another joked: “They don't let you leave australia without at least a two-season arc on Neighbours.”
While a third added: “This is the first time I’ve seen Margot Robbie act in an Australian accent.”
And one pointed out about Hemsworth: “I don’t think I’ve ever head him talk with his Aussie accent.”
Neither had we, to be fair.
Robbie made her debut on Neighbours back in 2008 and was originally cast as a guest character, but her skills shone through and she was added to the regular cast - where she remained until 2011.
Hemsworth, however, was featured on the iconic soap between 2007 and 2008, leaving shortly after his scene with Robbie.
We highly doubt the two could have imagined the Hollywood-status that awaited them - but never give up on your dreams, kids!
