Aaron Johnson: 'Children Keep Me Grounded'

British actor Aaron Johnson is grateful for his home life with fiancee Sam Taylor-wood, insisting his family keeps him "grounded".

The 21-year-old Nowhere Boy star is dad to two daughters by director Taylor-Wood, 45, and he's convinced having children so young has helped him cope with life in the spotlight.

He tells Britain's Radio Times, "For some having a family at my age is young. But it is something I am ready for and a family to me means a lot more than a career. Work should be around your life and not the other way around.

"Hopefully I can keep working and be in a comfortable position but you need a family to be your anchor and rock, something that keeps you grounded."
