Last year, some of us followed the story of a young, 19-year-old British actor named Aaron Johnson, and his engagement to and impregnation of a 43-year-old woman, British photographer and director Sam Taylor-Wood. They were fascinating, and many of us had strong feelings about them, not all of them good. Anyway, last year, Sam gave birth to Aaron’s first daughter, Wilda Rae, and now the woman is knocked up AGAIN. Aaron is 21 years old now. Sam is 44, and this will be her fourth child overall – she has two older daughters with her first husband. Oh, and Sam and Aaron have never gotten around to getting married, I guess…? So they’re still just “engaged.”
Aaron Johnson is getting ready to pull double-daddy duty – his fiancée, filmmaker Sam Taylor-Wood, is expecting the couple’s second child, her rep confirms to PEOPLE.
The Kick-Ass star, 21, and Taylor-Wood, 44, whose romance raised eyebrows because of their 23-year age difference, are already the proud parents of a baby girl, Wylda Rae, who just turned 1.
After stepping out together as a couple last spring, Johnson defended their relationship. “I’ve got a wonderful woman. I’m an old soul, and she’s a young soul.”
Taylor-Wood, who also has two daughters from her first marriage to art dealer Jay Jopling, met in 2009 on the set of her directorial debut, Nowhere Boy.

Like I’ve said before, it’s their perrogative, their choices, etc. They are both technically adults, and I don’t doubt that Aaron is very mature for his age and that he and Sam are in love right now. But at the end of the day, I just don’t think Sam is being fair to him, I really don’t. He was 18 years old when they got together, and he’s been thrown into a world that few young men would realistically be equipped for, long-term. Maybe they’re both “live in the moment” people, which isn’t the worst thing. I don’t know.
Do you want to see one of Aaron and Sam’s latest collaborations? Here’s REM’s music video “UBerlin” directed by Sam and starring Aaron… he has such a great body.
