Margot Robbie has made a cheeky joke about Megxit during the BAFTAs while accepting an award on behalf of Brad Pitt.
Wearing a floor-length Chanel lace gown, Australian actor Robbie turned heads at Royal Albert Hall, where she was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, for her roles in Bombshell and Once Upon a Time In Hollywood.
Robbie ultimately missed out on the British Academy Film Awards (won by Laura Dern for her performance in Marriage Story), but found herself onstage to accept Pitt’s award for Best Supporting Actor as he was not there “due to family obligations”.
“Hey Britain, heard you just became single, welcome to the club,” Robbie read from a speech Pitt had written.
Robbie then added: “He (Pitt) says he is going to name this Harry because he is really excited about bringing it back to the States with him”.
“His words not mine,” she clarified.
Australian actor Rebel Wilson also gave it to the royals during her stint on stage.
“It’s great to be here at the Royal Andrew … Royal Albert Hall,” Wilson said, as Prince William and Kate Middleton appeared to smirk as they watched on in the star-studded audience.
Wilson also referenced her role in box office flop, Cats, explaining that her black and red outfit was “from that one time I didn’t win Miss Australia. And the black is from a funeral I just went to for the feature film, Cats”.
Earlier, the BAFTAs red carpet took on a sombre tone, after two people were stabbed and a third injured in a terrorism-related attack in South London.
The BBC cancelled its plans to broadcast interviews from the red carpet on its news channel as a result.

The Duchess of Cambridge turned heads in a white and gold gown by Alexander McQueen, which she previously wore on a tour of Malaysia in 2012.
She teamed the outfit with a pair of Jimmy Choo heels and $A15,000 worth of jewellery by Van Cleef and Arpels.
Johnny Depp’s daughter Lily-Rose Depp caused a minor stir, wearing a see-through “naked” dress by Chanel, teamed with matching lace leggings.
