Rarely-seen nepo babies walk red carpet at A-list Hollywood actor step-dad’s premiere – can you guess their famous mum?

THE stepchildren of a very famous movie actor have been seen walking the red carpet at his movie premiere.

Posing with their stepdad and their mum at the event, the two daughters looked overjoyed to be in attendance as they beamed on the red carpet.

At 27 and 18, both girls dressed to impress for the occasion, with the eldest rocking a black pantsuit and a green velvet bag, and the youngest of the two wearing a fitted metallic dress.

Can you guess who their famous stepdad and mother are yet?

You got it… their stepdad is Aaron Taylor-Johnson, 33, who is happily married to director Sam Taylor-Johnson, 57, who is their mother.

The couple, who have an age difference of 23 years, have been married for more than a decade.

Attending the AMC Lincoln Square Theater in Manhattan together, the couple was joined by Sam’s nepo-baby children.

The British film director’s eldest daughters – whom she welcomed in her previous marriage – Angelica, 27, and Jessie, 18 also attended the event.

Angelica is an actress who has starred in Nowhere Boy, Kick-Ass 2 and Jonathan Creek.

Meanwhile, Jessie is a film director – just like her mum – and has worked on films including Fifty Shades of Grey and Back to Black.

At the event for the Kraven The Hunter New York Premiere, Sam could be seen beaming in between her husband and daughters while donning a stunning sequin dress.

Smiling on the red carpet, Sam rocked the maroon-coloured sequin dress with some sheer black rights and some shiny black heels.


Sam wore her blonde locks down and straight, with a glamorous yet natural makeup look.

Meanwhile, Aaron looked dapper in a black shirt and trousers combo, complete with a maroon-coloured velvet jacket.

The family looked content to be in each other’s company at the event, with each of them smiling as the cameras clicked away.

Although Aaron is stepdad to Sam’s two children from her previous marriage, Aaron and Sam are also parents to two daughters.

What is a Nepo Baby?

A ‘nepo baby’ is a colloquial term used to describe individuals who have gained opportunities or success in their careers primarily due to familial connections or the influence of their well-known or wealthy parents, rather than solely through their own talent, skills, or efforts.

The term ‘nepo’ is short for ‘nepotism’, which refers to favouritism granted to relatives or close friends, often in a professional context.

Key Characteristics:

  • Inherited advantage: Nepo babies often benefit from their family’s established reputation, wealth, or industry connections.
  • Access to networks: They typically have easier access to influential networks and resources within their chosen field.
  • Public perception: The term can carry a negative connotation, implying that their success is not entirely merit-based.

Industries Affected:

  • Entertainment: Many actors, musicians, and other performers are often labeled as nepo babies if they have famous parents.
  • Business: Individuals who inherit or are given significant roles in family-owned businesses.
  • Politics: Politicians who follow in the footsteps of their parents or other relatives.

Examples:

  • Children of famous actors who become actors themselves.
  • Heirs to business empires who assume executive roles.
  • Offspring of political figures who enter public office.

The concept of nepo babies is often debated, with some arguing that it undermines the notion of meritocracy.

Meanwhile, others believe that it is natural for families to support and help each other succeed.

The couple shares Wylda, 12, and Romy, also 12, with their two daughters not attending the event last night.

LOVE’S YOUNG DREAM

Sam, who was rumoured to be 42 at the time, met 19-year-old Aaron on the set of Nowhere Boy in 2009.

“We had this intense connection,” Sam told The Sunday Times UK of working with the young actor.

“He was very intense and absolutely mind-made-up,” she said of their romance.

Touching on how they acted around each other on set, Sam and Aaron both told Harper’s Bazaar in 2019: “No funny business at all.”

‘WE HAD NEVER BEEN ON A DATE’

“As soon as we finished [filming], he told me he was going to marry me,” Aaron told the outlet at the time of their interview together.

He added: “We had never been on a date, or even kissed.

“And a year to the minute after we met, exactly one year to the minute, I got down on one knee and asked her to marry me,” Aaron said.

He added: “I knew I wanted a family with her, I knew I wanted kids, and a month later she was pregnant with our first child.”
