Aaron Taylor-Johnson subtly shuts down split rumours with rare post after age-gap controversy
The rumour mill had been swirling for a few weeks over the state of Aaron Taylor-Johnson's marriage with his wife Sam, after the star was spotted out and about without his wedding ring.
Aaron is notoriously private and protective of his family, but the actor has shared a rare post on Instagram to silence any suggestions of marital strife with director Sam.
The couple rose to fame thanks in part to their age difference, with Sam being 42 and James Bond favourite Aaron just 18 years old when they met back in 2009.

Now 12 years into their marriage, the Bullet Train star has shared a series of cuddly photos with Sam, as the pair enjoy a sunny holiday together.
He is seen embracing his wife in the intimate snaps, captioned: "Little get away."
Shirtless Aaron has caused a stir with the photos, with many fans viewing it as his attempt of silencing the rumours about his marriage, as the pair look blissfully happy in the scenic pics.
The photos show Aaron, 34, and Sam, 57, with their arms around each other, smiling as the waves crash behind them with a rainbow.
Sam also took a selfie of the pair by the sea, as well as a picture of Aaron posing while smoking a cigarette, showing off the tattoo of Sam's name with a hummingbird over his heart.
The duo also showed off their acrobatic skills for the fun pictures.
Comments have notably been restricted on the post, preventing fans from replying to the photos. Friends of the couple praised them for the snaps - apart from some who chided Aaron for the cigarette.
Neither Aaron or Sam have responded publicly to the split speculation, preferring to avoid the spotlight.
The rumour mill went into overdrive when Aaron had been spotted out for dinner with friends with his wedding ring missing, just weeks after he was seen wearing it at the Venice Film Festival.
The couple have two daughters together, along with two children from Sam's previous marriage, and Aaron has praised his 'four gorgeous daughters' regularly as well as speaking highly of his wife and family life, as he told Rolling Stone UK.
On X, formerly Twitter, one user wrote: "Help, he defo saw you all celebrating those divorce rumours."
Another wrote: "So it's not true!"
One fan defended them, writing: "I don't understand why people hate their age gap, why are they so mean to these guys. It's consensual and legal!"
It seems that Aaron has successfully quietened the rumours, as well as having a lovely holiday. Job done!
