Aaron Taylor-Johnson celebrated his stepdaughter Jessie’s 18th birthday in a very sweet way on Tuesday.
The Marvel star, 34, posted two rare images of himself with Jessie, who he dubbed his ‘babygirl’, on Instagram.
In the first photo, a much younger Aaron hugs Jessie as a child.
“Happy birthday girl,” she captioned, followed by two pink heart emojis.
In the next photo, which appears more recent, a bearded Aaron hugs her again. He captioned it, ’18 now. She’s still my girl.

Fans in the comments didn’t seem to realize that Jessie is Aaron’s stepdaughter and were left baffled as they tried to make calculations about how old he would have been when she was conceived.
Others couldn’t resist pointing out the 23-year age gap between Aaron and his 57-year-old wife Sam Taylor-Johnson.
The couple married in 2012 after meeting three years earlier on the set of the film Nowhere Boy.
They share two children, while Aaron is also stepfather to Sam’s two daughters.
Sam said in May that she can’t believe the “fascination” people have had with her and Aaron’s 23-year age difference.
The couple have a very private relationship and Sam has admitted that people’s initial interest in the couple’s relationship was “intense” because “people want to understand things when they can’t.”
She revealed that interest has now “gone a bit” as the couple have been together for 14 years.
Fans online couldn’t resist pointing out the 23-year age difference between Aaron and his wife Sam Taylor-Johnson, 57 (pictured in April).
They share two children, while Aaron is also stepfather to Sam’s two daughters.
Talking about their relationship on BBC Radio 4 This cultural lifeHe said: “I guess the interest was greater when we got together, which was already 14 years ago; at first, it was quite intense.”
And that kind of fascination, because he’s younger than me, and you know, we couldn’t really understand that fascination. But I guess it’s disappeared a little.
‘Especially when I do press and things like that, it resurfaces a little. But yeah, I guess people want to understand things when they can’t.
“They want to learn art when they can’t understand what a certain love story is that doesn’t fit in a box.”
Back To Black filmmaker Sam is mother to Angelica, 26, and Jessie, 18, whom she shares with ex-husband Jay Jopling. She shares Wylda, 13, and Romy, 12, with Aaron.
