Aaron Taylor-Johnson is talking about all the fuss over the 24 year age difference between him and his wife, Sam Taylor-Johnson … saying he finds it completely bizarre.
The 33-year-old actor, rumored to be the next James Bond, told Rolling Stone UK about his marriage to the 57-year-old director… saying all the criticism isn’t justified because he has an old soul thanks to his child acting days .
Essentially, he says he had a different timeline than most.
Aaron, who began his professional acting career at age 6, explains what others did at age 20, he did at age 13. In other words, he grew up fast… so why the criticism?
If you don’t know – their relationship has been talked about for a long time… especially considering when they met and how old Aaron was. They crossed paths in 2008 while she was working on ‘Nowhere Boy’, which he auditioned for. Aaron was around 17 years old at that time.
Obviously, they kept in touch, because he married this woman a few years later in 2012 when he was just 21 years old. Since then, they’ve had two daughters…plus, he’s the stepfather to her other children.
Anyway… ATJ also talks about the protection he feels for Sam, saying that if some things don’t work out between them, he feels responsible.
And, on the issue of the 24-year age difference… Aaron says in this new interview that the way people perceive his personal life doesn’t bother him, because he’s just trying to balance family, work and mundane things like dentist appointments .
He may need to brush up on his juggling skills because rumor has it he was handed over the chance to be the next James Bond!
