Margot Robbie's mother Sarie Kessler showed off her enviable figure when she stepped out for a dip on the Gold Coast.
The mother of the Hollywood star has been enjoying some family time with her A-Lister daughter who was back Down Under with husband Tom Ackerley and their baby boy for the Easter holidays.
Sarie, 67, looked trim, taut and terrific as she strolled along the golden sand with a male companion.
It was not hard to see where Margot received her enviable genetics as Sarie showed off her slender frame.
Sarie looked magnificent in a simple black one piece swimsuit that featured a cut-out detail on the décolletage.
The strappy swimmers showed off Sarie's slender arms and as she hit the beach for a stroll.
The high cut garment also showed off Sarie's trim pins as she strolled along the sand with her beau.
Going barefoot for the occasion, Sarie kept the accessories to a minimum, save for a blue and white striped beach towel that she wore as a shawl as she strolled along the shoreline.
Aside from working on her tan, Sarie also found time to take advantage of the crystal clear water.
Sarie looked very much in her element as she waded, waist deep, through the water.
She looked equally chuffed to be strolling, hand-in-hand with her beau along the shoreline after the cooling dip.
Margot recently revealed how she repaid her mother who had supported her acting aspirations since the very beginning.
Speaking to CBS Sunday Morning in 2023, the Barbie star admitted she spent her first movie earnings to pay off the mortgage on Sarie's $490,000 home in Southport on the Gold Coast.
Margot explained that she'd always intended to give money to her mother once she made it in Hollywood, as Sarie had financially supported her at the beginning of her career.
'Everything I owed my mum I had it written down. She'd take money out of the, like, house mortgage [to] lend me money,' Margot began.
'So I always knew, I was like, "I gotta pay that back". And then one day, when I made enough money, I just paid that whole mortgage off completely,' she added.
She paid off the mortgage on Sarie's 60th birthday, a year after Margot shot to superstardom in The Wolf of Wall Street.
'I was like, 'Mum, don't even worry about that mortgage anymore. It doesn't even exist anymore'. Honestly, anyone in my position, you'd do that for your mum,' she said.
Also, in 2019 Margot revealed in Vogue Australia that she'd spent her first-ever acting paycheck on her mother.
Margot explained to Sarie, who was interviewing her for the magazine, that she used the money to payback the debt she owed her.
I spent it on paying you back, mum. Don't you remember? I was so in debt by the end of grade 12,' she explained.
'I had everything I owed you written on a piece of paper, and every time I got a paycheck I paid off my debt, but then I kept the piece of paper because it was so satisfying at the end to know I'd paid it all back.'
Margot's big break came in 2008, when she debuted on Neighbours as Donna Freedman, a role she played for three years.
But in 2011, Hollywood beckoned and she began auditioning for U.S. television shows and movies.
It comes as Sarie recently became a grandmother, with Margot and husband Tom Ackerley welcoming their baby boy in October.
Margot's pregnancy was made public in July and the couple enjoyed a romantic 'babymoon' to Sardinia, Italy, at the end of August.
Tom and Margot first met in 2013 while working on Suite Française, where he was an assistant director, and she was in front of the camera.
They cemented their relationship after moving in together with other friends in a four bed house in Clapham, South London, which according to Margot was the 'best days of my life'.
The couple got married in 2016 and are co-producers on a number of projects, including Hulu's Dollface, through their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.
