Margot Robbie fans are flocking to social media in shock after learning the actor is married and realising who her husband is.
The Barbie star may not have wanted any Ken in the 2023 release, but Robbie very much does have her own Ken and has done for years, since she tied the knot with the supposed mystery man in 2016.
Fans' shock was sparked after a video was shared online of Robbie at Variety's Power of Women event held at Mother Wolf in Los Angeles on Thursday (16 November).

As a result of losing her voice, Robbie sought the help of husband Tom Ackerley to read her acceptance speech for her.
While also sending viewers into fits of giggles with the line about Dua Lipa in her speech, people also flooded to social media in shock when they realised who Ackerley is.
The pair met in 2013 on the set of Suite Française, begun dating the year after and then tied the knot in 2016.
Alongside being Robbie's husband, Ackerley - full name Thomas Francis Michael Ackerley - is an English film producer, actor, and former assistant director.
Ackerley is also a co-founder with Robbie - alongside Josey McNamara and Sophia Kerr - of the production company LuckyChap Entertainment - used for films such as I, Tonya, Barbie and recently released Saltburn - the first two of which star Robbie.
The actor opened up about what it's like to work alongside her husband in an interview with Porter, reflecting: "I’m a great advocate of doing business with your partner.
"Being married is actually the most fun ever, life got way more fun somehow. I have a responsibility being someone’s wife, I want to be better."
You also may or may not recognise Ackerley from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone in which he was an extra, playing the role of a Slytherin student.
Although, Robbie herself didn't even realise her husband had a feature in the magical franchise until after they'd got married.
And people are flocking to X in similar surprise after clocking not only is Robbie married, but who Ackerley is.
One X user said: "HUSBAND?!! this is how i found out margot robbie has a husband… and a BRITISH HUSBAND."
"Wait what???! Margot Robbie has married? She got a husband?" another added.
A third commented: "MARGOT ROBBIE HAS A HUSBAND??_?$(#($ day ruined."
And a fourth wrote: "WTF JUST FOUND OUT MARGOT ROBBIE HAS A HUSBAND?!?"
