The Wuthering Heights and Barbie actress, 35, has admitted to being thrown out of infamous nightclub Infernos and 'most of the clubs in Clapham' in a new interview, while opening up on her wild hen do featuring a Harry Potter stripper.
Up until 2016 Margot was a proud Clapham resident, living in a ramshackle, four-bedroom flat ironically dubbed The Manor with six of her friends.
She previously branded her life in South London as the 'best days of my life' and reportedly instigated a compulsory 'house tattoo', with every member getting the same design.
Now, appearing on the Table Manners podcast, mother-of-one Margot has opened up on her wild days in the capital as she admitted to being thrown out of Infernos - the cheesy establishment renowned for its drenched carpeted floors and sketchy customers.

Margot said: 'So we all had a weekend in London when the job was done. And of course, we went to Infernos, and within about 15 minutes, we got kicked out.
'And while we're getting dragged out by security, I was screaming, “but this is Infernos, you can’t get kicked out of Infernos.”
'And the bouncer was like, “Look, we allow most things, but when your friend does [redacted], then we kick you out”. And I was like, “okay, fair enough!”'
Margot did not reveal what her friend had done to alert security, but went on to admit: 'Most of the clubs in Clapham, I'd say, have kicked us out.
'Yeah, for a while we were banned at a number of places! [..] So we ended up all deciding to move in together.'

Margot was so captured by the area she and her pals decided to call it home and the lifestyle she led could be likened to that of a student, the star previously admitting she was like a 'naughty schoolgirl'.
She explained: 'I had gone back to America at that point, and so we were looking online, and the guys were like, “Oh, it's a sign this place is down the road from Infernos”. So we literally signed our lease just because it was down the road from Infernos.'

Before her wedding to husband to Tom Ackerley, Margot had boozy Harry Potter-themed hen do, with a stripper (pictured with Tom in 2024)
While on the cusp of stardom, pictures posted by the actress' friend group on social media in 2014 suggest a hard-drinking lifestyle a world away from the fakery of LA.

One, captioned 'the house degenerates', shows a brunette Margot wearing black boots, posing with her housemates atop a roof, sticking two fingers up at the camera, wearing a T-shirt with the slogan 'Oscars Bait' (in 2018 Margot would be nominated for an Academy Award for her role in I, Tonya about infamous ice skater Tonya Harding).
Another shows a pile of bin bags outside the house filled with empty beer cans.
The housemates got on so well that in 2015, four of them — Robbie, Ackerley, Sophia Kerr and Josey McNamara — founded production company, Lucky Chap. Now worth an estimated £25 million, it's remit is to 'make female stories', producing I, Tonya in 2017, Promising Young Woman, staring Carey Mulligan, in 2020 — both of which won Oscars — and now Barbie.
Before her wedding to husband to Tom Ackerley, the former Neighbours star had a boozy Harry Potter-themed hen do, with a stripper.
She recalled: 'My friends got a stripper and made him do Harry Potter. It was so funny and not sexy, and like, he was like, in a robe with the glass scar, and you know, all the innuendo that you can imagine.

'And it was very, very funny, but we were all so drunk, it really didn't matter, to be honest!
'In the midst of her party girl era, Margot befriended the local off license owners and even invited them to one of her movie premieres, though she said they did not believe she was famous and did not accept her invitation.'
After Margot's Wuthering Heights co-star Jacob Elordi revealed their 'mutual obsession' with each other, she was asked whether the Aussie hunk was the stripper.

Margot replied: 'No, Jacob did not come as a stripper, but we did have strippers, and they were amazing. They did like classic Magic Mike.'
Meanwhile, during an appearance on Heart Radio on Tuesday to promote Wuthering Heights, Margot necked beer and gin with Amanda Holden.
During the interview, Amanda brought along a pair of shoe-shaped bottles so the pair could have 'shoeys' - when someone drinks out of a shoe as a party piece. It is popular in Australia as a celebratory ritual.
Amanda said: 'I've got you a little present only because it's nearly lunchtime so I feel this is legal. As an Australian, I know you like shoeys.'
'I literally just told someone what a shoey is,' Margot replied.

Amanda then revealed the shoe-shaped bottles, one with beer, which she gave to Margot, and one with gin, which she drank herself.
'This is actual beer. You can either go for a real one or a non-alcoholic one,' she said.
'I mean, obviously the real one. This is a very elegant shoey. Usually you do it out of some mangy old sneaker,' Margot said.
'Cheers darling,' Amanda said as they both enjoyed their drinks.
