Aaron Taylor-Johnson met his wife Sam Taylor-Johnson while working on her film "Nowhere Boy," a biopic on John Lennon. One thing that raised red flags for potential grooming is their age difference when they met — Sam was in her early forties and getting divorced from her first husband, and Aaron was 18, or perhaps even a few months younger. It's not confirmed how old he actually was when he auditioned for the film. Another flag that burns crimson is that due to scheduling issues, Aaron did his audition for "Nowhere Boy" at Sam's house, according to her interview with The Sunday Times UK (via Insider).

After the filming of the movie ended, Aaron swore they'd get married although they had remained completely professional up until that point. In the couples' interview with Harper's Bazaar, they said how Aaron proposed to her one year after they met and she accepted, and she got pregnant shortly after. The engagement was made public at the premiere of their movie, and now the couple have four children (two from Sam's ex-husband).

Another thing that has people wondering if their relationship is based on grooming is that in Sam's interview with The Sunday Times UK and their joint interview with The Telegraph UK, the couple made comments about how Aaron is more mature than other people his age or an "old soul" (via Insider).
