Margot Robbie addresses “crying” photos and nearly quitting acting

Margot Robbie opens up about her tearful photos outside Cara Delevingne’s house, and almost quitting acting after Wolf of Wall Street fame.

In a new interview with Vanity Fair, Margot Robbie addresses the viral photos of her that surfaced in September, which showed the Aussie actress seemingly crying outside the home of model and close friend, Cara Delevingne.

At the time, Margot’s visit to Cara’s home, as well as her ‘tearful’ exit, was believed to have something to do with the model’s erratic behavior displayed at a Los Angeles airport earlier that month, which sparked mental health concerns.

However, Margot declares this was not the case: “I had something in my eye,” she told Vanity Fair. “I’m trying to grab my face mask, trying to hold a coffee cup and I couldn’t get a hair outta my eye.”

Additionally, the Birds of Prey star says she wasn’t even at Cara Delevingne’s property: “I’m outside an Airbnb that I was renting for five days! And I’m not crying!”

Elsewhere in the interview, Margot Robbie discusses the challenges surrounding fame, which ensued after her starring role in the 2014 film, The Wolf of Wall Street: “Something was happening in those early stages and it was all pretty awful,” she explains to Vanity Fair.

“I remember saying to my mom, ‘I don’t think I want to do this.’ And she just looked at me, completely straight-faced, and was like, ‘Darling, I think it’s too late not to.’ That’s when I realized the only way was forward.” Robbie adds, “I know how to go through airports, and now I know who’s trying to fuck me over in what ways.”
