Farnham Town footballer Harry Cooksley, 30, was delighted to recall an encounter on an airplane with a very famous movie star.

He admitted on camera: "The incredible Margot Robbie.

"And I'll tell you exactly why, I sat next to her on a flight, we chatted the entire way."

He added: "And I actually thought I had a chance with her."

Margot, 34, is best known for her huge roles as Harley Quinn in the Suicide Squad movies.

She also starred alongside Brad Pitt in films such as Once Upon A Time in Hollywood and Babylon.

This was after she had her mainstream breakthrough for her role in Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street alongside Leonardo DiCaprio.

The Barbie actress is also well known to be a superfan of the long-running ITV reality series.

For her 31st birthday she celebrated with her nearest and dearest with a Love Island themed party.

She has also met various former contestants including Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti.

The Oscar nominee also previously invited Maura Higgins out for a boozy lunch.

They both did shots together after they ordered a whole bottle of Margot's own gin, Papa Salt Coastal gin to the table.

In 2020, Chris Taylor met the superstar actress at the afterparty of Birds of Prey which led to him getting a cameo in Barbie as a human Ken doll.

The reality personality previously told Cosmopolitan: "She's just really down to earth and cool. She's one of the nicest people I've ever met."
