However the 25-year-old knows the timing is not quite right for her to be considering motherhood, as she's got two major movies about to hit the big screen.

Margot said: "I know that once I have kids, they’ll be my priority, so I want to do the family thing later."

She explained: "Being in a long-distance relationship can be really hard when you don’t see the light at the end of the tunnel.

"It can mess with your head, so the three-week rule is key."

Margot's relationship helps keep her grounded, but she still enjoys the odd night out with her celebrity pals.

However the blonde beauty recently revealed to The Sun that she is still cringing over her drunken escapades at model Suki Waterhouse's Christmas party, which saw her mistake Prince Harry for singer Ed Sheeran.

She said: "Everyone now thinks if they come on a night out with me in London they’ll bump into Prince Harry, but I didn’t even know who it was.

"I’d had a drink or drinks. I thought I was hanging out with Ed Sheeran."

Margot ended up in a photobooth pulling funny faces with fellow actress Sienna Miller, model Cara Delevingne, Princess Eugene and Harry, 31.

But not realising it was the hunky royal, she recalled: "I was thinking ‘Ed’s a really cool guy’. I’m going to take some pictures with him.”

When asked if Harry took the mix-up well, she laughed: “Nope!”
