Margot Robbie has corrected this rumour about herself

Margot Robbie has corrected the internet on where she was born in Australia.

Millions have been led to believe that the 35-year-old actress hails from Dalby, a rural town in Queensland, but she was actually born on the Gold Coast.

Setting the record straight, Margot told Magic Radio: "The internet's had my place of birth wrong, like the whole time. It says I was born in Dalby, which is where my family's from, but I wasn't. I was born on the Gold Coast."

The Wuthering Heights star added: "It's not a stupid rumour, it's just amazing that this far along, it's still incorrect."

Margot spoke about Dalby during an appearance on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live! in 2014.

The Wolf on Wall Street alum told the 58-year-old host: "My family is from a little country town called Dalby, which is three hours inland.

"It's very small. When I go back to Dalby, everyone's like, 'What's been happening with you?' and I'm like, 'Oh, I did a movie and stuff, what's been happening out here?' They're like, 'We're getting a Big W.'
