Age-gap relationships are a frequent happening in the world of entertainment, yet, no age-gap celebrity couple has received the backlash that Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Sam Taylor-Johnson have received. Not only is Sam 23 years older than the Marvel star, but they met when he was 18, which has led to several allegations ranging from grooming to manipulation.

While they have not paid heed to the backlash and continue to enjoy their love and marriage, Sam once stated that their marriage has even outlasted her friends’ marriages.
Sam Taylor-Johnson on Her Marriage with Aaron Taylor-Johnson
Sam Taylor-JohnsonandAaron Taylor-Johnsonmet on the sets ofNowhere Boy, a biopic on the life of the celebrated rock star John Lennon and the eventual formation of The Beatles. Aaron was just 18 when they first crossed paths, but apparently, they knew they were meant for each other straightaway (viaHarper’s Bazaar).
Since the day they made their relationship official, despite public scrutiny and criticism, they have spent nearly all of their time together, something they both truly enjoy. Even though the world continues to hate their relationship due to their significantly huge age gap, Sam once remarked that her marriage with Aaron has even outlasted her friends’ marriages (viaThe Hollywood Reporter).

If I gave a second thought to other people, I would be the unhappiest person, probably still in a miserable marriage. People like to talk about it. I’m like, ‘Yeah, but it works better than my last marriage.’ It’s lasted longer than a lot of my friends’ marriages.
Even with the backlash and allegations of grooming, the fact that the couple is still together is a testament to their love and genuine care for each other. Married for over 14 years now, the couple is still very much in love, even when fans continue to criticize them.

Sam Taylor-Johnson Does Not Care About What the World Thinks
The ‘world,’ no matter what a wonderful place it might seem like, is rather often cruel, harsh, and ugly. Especially when it comes to something as taboo as ‘age-gap’ relationships, many don’t take them in a kind way but rather look down upon them. And Sam Taylor-Johnson and Aaron Taylor-Johnson have been battling this scrutiny since the day they proclaimed their love for each other.
Even after 10 years of their marriage, this critique and backlash is still on. Yet, Sam has little to no care about what other people think, as she revealed to The Hollywood Reporter.

If I gave a second thought to other people, I would be the unhappiest person, probably still in a miserable marriage.
As for her husband, Aaron, he too does not care about the trolling and hate and once remarked toEllethat the only thing he has ever been sure of was being with Sam. Even with the 23-year age gap, the duo have been living happily, away from the hustle and bustle of the film industry, raising four kids together and they couldn’t be any happier.
