Freya St Johnston is a British businesswoman, a publicist, and a mother of two who became famous through her relationship with Taken actor, Liam Neeson. Before the famous actor came along, she was the spouse of a fellow named Matthew Winton. Freya is 48 years old as of 2022 and no longer in a relationship with the famous actor.
Given the sudden death of Neeson’s wife Natasha Richardson in 2009, and the fact that Freya is the first woman he was romantically linked to thereafter, it is no surprise that the Freya St Johnston and Liam Neeson’s relationship generated much buzz. Even though facts indicate that the two parted ways a few years ago, people are still curious about Johnston and what happened to the relationship.

What Does Freya St Johnston Do and How Old Is She?
Information gathered from various platforms suggests that Freya St Johnston is 48 years old (as of 2022). She is a businesswoman and also has a career as a publicist. Unlike her famous ex-lover, Liam Neeson, whom we can confirm was born in Ballymena, Northern Ireland, on the 7th of June 1952, Johnston’s precise date of birth is yet to be uncovered.
Be that as it may, a 2010 report specified that she was 36 years old. If the said report was factual, it means Freya and Liam had a 21 years age gap between them while they dated. The actor is currently 72 years old. He continues to dominate the movie industry with fantastic performances. Can the same be said about Freya?
Well, she is not an actor but hopefully, she is doing well with her career as a publicist and businesswoman. Details of her business exploits are not privy to the public but we know that it once included running a retail clothing business called Ned Trading Ltd. Freya only gained public attention through her relationship with Neeson: since their relationship packed up, much hasn’t been heard from her.
Husband and Marital Status of the Publicist
Freya St Johnston’s marital status at the moment is not known. Hardly can anyone tell if she has been in another relationship since her on-and-off romance with Liam Neeson ended. This is so because she isn’t someone besotted with publicity. All the while she dated the famous actor, she kept to herself and never discussed the relationship. She has maintained the same attitude since the relationship came to an end and has seemingly disappeared from the limelight.
Nevertheless, she was once the spouse of a fellow named Matthew Winton. We can’t confirm if Winton ever got to become Freya St Johnston’s husband but they had something serious. Apart from the fact that they were romantic partners, they were also business partners. It is said that Freya and Matthew operated a retail clothing business for three years. Named after a son (Ned) they had together, Ned Trading Ltd. has gone out of business.
Are Liam Neeson and Freya St Johnston Still Together?
The actor and the British publicist are no longer together. They dated on and off from 2010 and were last seen together in 2019. How their love story began is best known to them, but reports have it that they met through mutual friends in the movie industry. If one must believe everything that was reported about the two, they knew each other for years before they started dating.
As far as the public knows, what Liam Neeson had with Freya St Johnston began sometime in September 2010. The two were seen on a good Friday, holding hands while leaving the famous Nobu restaurant in London. As one would expect, they made headlines not only because of who Liam is but also because it had been only 18 months since his wife passed.
Liam and Freya kept the relationship private as much as they could but continued to appear together in public. In 2012, pictures of them holding hands and walking the street of Rome circulated. A few weeks thereafter, it emerged that they had parted ways because Freya wanted something more defined and Liam wasn’t ready for it. This claim was never confirmed in any meaningful way.
Years later, the two presumably resumed dating. They were seen together several times in public. For instance, they were spotted in May 2015 watching Tampa Bay Lightning vs New York Rangers playoff game at Madison Square Garden, New York City. The following year, they attended the Irish Film and TV Awards together. Freya and Liam seem to have parted for good; they haven’t been seen together since 2019.
