Baby gifts due for Sam Taylor-Wood - 08/01/10

Baby gifts are on their way to London-born artist Sam Taylor-Wood who is expecting her first child with teenage fiance Aaron Johnson.

A spokesman for Taylor-Wood said:? "We can confirm that Sam is pregnant with her and Aaron's first child.

"Both are very, very happy," he added.

There was no word on when the baby was due.

The 42-year-old director got engaged to Johnson, 19, after meeting on the set of her directorial debut Nowhere Boy in which he plays the lead.

Johnson was praised for his portrayal of John Lennon in the biopic which explores the teenage life of the late Beatles frontman.

Taylor-Wood called him a "brilliant" actor and promised they would work again together.

She said: "There was an intensity when he walked through the door. He spoke to me in a Liverpool accent and I knew he wasn't from Liverpool. He was in character from that moment."

The artist, who has battled cancer twice, already has two daughters from her marriage to art dealer Jay Jopling.
