Along with his thriving professional life, the actor’s personal life is also fascinating.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Sam Taylor’s love story
It is a truly unique and unforgettable love story of the two Hollywood celebrities. Aaron Taylor-Johnson met Sam Taylor on the sets of his film Nowhere Boy. At the time he was 18, and Sam Taylor was 42 years old.
The Guardian was doing Sam Taylor’s profile and visited the sets of the film. They reported,
“Whenever the rain comes, she runs inside the house, arm in arm with 19-year-old Aaron Johnson, who plays Lennon. They dance and laugh like teenagers in love. I’ve never been on a film set with such a strange atmosphere. While the rest of the cast and crew are welcoming, Taylor-Wood and Johnson seem oblivious to the world. They are wearing matching padded jackets—hers has the initials STW stitched into the back, and he has AJ. I ask Taylor-Wood if everybody has them. She smiles. ‘No, only me and Aaron. They all know who the top dogs are on this set.’”
By mid of 2009, the duo had started dating and were often spotted together, engaged in PDA. They moved in together by the end of the year. Sam Taylor shared,
“We weren’t even together then. Maybe feelings were there but un-acted upon. The thing is, we had quite a psychic link when we were working together. I knew from a flicker of an eyelash what kind of performance I was going to get. I felt that link almost from day one of meeting him.”
The couple had started dating amidst the shooting of the film.
