Aaron later clarified to E! News that the tweens couldn’t attend the premiere as they’re not “old enough to watch” the R-rated film.

“When they come of age, they’ll be able to see it,” he told the outlet.

The “Bullet Train” actor has defended their 23-year age gap plenty of times over the years, Most recently, he explained that he feels a “protectiveness” toward their relationship in an interview with Rolling Stone UK.

“You’re doing something too quickly for someone else? I don’t understand that. What speed are you supposed to enjoy life at? It’s bizarre to me,” he told the outlet in March.

“People see and perceive this thing around my career, and that’s OK. But I’m just trying to juggle my family and my work,” he added. “I’m doing normal life; dentist appointments. Career doesn’t necessarily take a back seat, but it takes a different thought behind the choices that you make.”

Sam has also stood by her man, telling the Guardian in April that their age differences have “never” been a problem for them.

“It is just people upset with their own sadness; with misgivings about their own life,” she told the outlet, while clarifying that her daughters do not “care” about the criticism.

“They see two loving, happy parents, so it doesn’t really register. They just think people are a bit mean, or mad.”
