A Love Story that Spans Decades and a Red Carpet Debut
Aaron and Sam’s love story began on the set of the 2009 film Nowhere Boy, directed by Sam and starring Aaron as a young John Lennon. They married in 2012 and share two daughters, Wylda Rae and Romy Hero. Sam also has two daughters, Angelica and Jessie, from a previous relationship.
The blended family recently made a red-carpet appearance together at the New York City premiere of Kraven the Hunter. This marked the first time Aaron and Sam were joined by her two eldest daughters at a public event.
Addressing the Age Gap: Love and Happiness Prevail
The couple’s 24-year age gap has been a topic of discussion, but Sam addressed it in an interview with The Guardian, stating that their children are unfazed by it. She explained that her kids see two loving and happy parents and don’t register the age difference, perceiving any negativity towards their relationship as simply mean or mad. Their focus remains on the love and happiness that defines their family.
