Double standards?
9 Answers
Today's Times has a goofy looking woman, 43yo, tattooed, pregnant by her 19yo boyfriend (so not married) on the front page of the main paper, and the front page of the magazine as well as a 5 page article inside.
But she's an artist, so that's alright. If she was just some woman from an run-down housing estate would News International fete her or use her as an example of broken Britain?

Its hardly an example of broken Britain and the paper is following the story as her partner is in an up and coming actor and she is a famous artist/ bafta nominated director.

I think Bibble's right, though. If this wasn't a famous couple, but just an ordinary couple from a council estate - whatever their standards - the tabloids would be down on them like a ton of bricks.
There's nothing wrong with Ms Taylor-Wood's and Mr Johnson's relationship at all, and there should be nothing wrong with any similar relationship among us lesser mortals.
