An Unconventional Love

At last year's London Film Festival I watched Nowhere Boy, which premiered at the Closing Night Gala. That was when I first heard about Aaron Johnson and Sam Taylor-Wood's romance.

Johnson played the teenage John Lennon in Taylor-Wood's directorial debut, and off-screen they fell in love - despite a 23-year age gap. Now they're engaged, living in Primrose Hill and parents to three-month old Wylda Rae.

It's fair to say that their age difference and Johnson's rapid rise to fame have resulted in a lot of media interest in their relationship. I suppose they don't fall under the 'normal' couple bracket, but by the looks of it, things are working out just fine.

I love, love, LOVE this photoshoot they did for Vogue whilst Sam was pregnant. Plus, below are some shots from the set of Nowhere Boy.

P.S. The couple’s matching tattoos read, "In Spite Of All The Danger," a line from the Beatles song of the same name. Nice.

P.P.S. Nowhere Boy is ace. I highly recommend it.
