The child, named Wylda Rae, was born in London. The couple met on set of Taylors 2009 directorial debut of Nowhere Boy, a film about the early years of Beatle John Lennon, which Johnson stars. "I've got a wonderful woman," Johnson told People in April. "I'm an old soul and she's a young soul."

Taylor-Wood has had to defend their relationship to the press because of their controversial age difference. She talked to Harper's Bazaar about the criticism in April saying, I try to ignore it. I've made lots of big decisions in my life that have shocked people. I've never really thought of other people's opinions, so why start now?" 

The director is a cancer survivor twice over, once for colon and another bout with breast cancer, all before the age of 35. She has two older daughters from her eleven-year marriage to art dealer Jay Jopling, thirteen-year-old Angelica and five-year-old Jessie. The couple got engaged in October and Taylor-Wood defends her relationship with Johnson saying, The amount of men I know with the same age gap that we have  how come no one says anything about that? It's totally sexist."
