Aaron Taylor-Johnson and his wife Sam have got matching tattoos of each other's names.

The pair’s inkings were revealed on Instagram by renowned tattoo artist Dr Woo.

He shared a picture showing Aaron’s chest with the name “Sam” and a bird tattooed on it.

A second snap of the loved-up pair together showed that filmmaker Sam, 54, has the word “Aaron” etched onto her collarbone in tribute to her husband, 30.

“Captured a healed hummingbird on Aaron and added some love for Sam,” said the caption.

The couple worked together on the film Nowhere Boy in 2009 when Aaron was 18 and Sam was 42.

The pair ended up falling in love despite the 24-year age gap between them.

They tied the knot in 2012 and changed their surnames – actor Aaron's was Johnson and Sam’s was Taylor-Wood – to Taylor-Johnson, and now have two daughters together.

Aaron addressed the difference in their ages in an interview with The Telegraph in 2019.

“I worked in an adult environment from an early age," he said. "I had open, direct conversations with directors, producers, actors, where my opinions would be valued and matter.

“I grew up pretty quickly - I left school at 15. I had a totally different upbringing from my kids."

He added: "When I met Sam I’d already lived a life far beyond that of most of my contemporaries - I didn’t relate to anyone my age.
