Johnny Depp’s New Relationship: ‘They’ve Known Each Other for Years

Actor Johnny Depp is rumored to be dating again, and it seems his new lady love is someone familiar. Read on to find out more about the new woman in his life!

In recent years, Johnny Depp has been in the media spotlight for less-than-ideal reasons. His legal battle with Amber Heard made headlines globally. Depp filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against Heard over her 2019 Washington Post op-ed, where she discussed her experiences as a domestic violence victim.

Although Depp won the defamation trial, the jury also found him liable for comments made by his lawyer, Adam Waldman, who had referred to Heard’s claims as a ‘hoax.’ Heard was awarded $2 million and has since stayed out of the limelight.

In December 2022, Heard filed an appeal but later settled the case out of court. She clarified, “I have made no admission. This is not an act of concession. There are no restrictions or gags with respect to my voice moving forward.” She appeared in 2023’s “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” but did not participate in its press tour.

Depp also retreated from the public eye for a while but made a notable return at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, receiving a seven-minute standing ovation for his film, “Jeanne Du Barry.” There were also rumors of a romantic link with lawyer Joelle Rich, who represented him in his U.K. libel lawsuit involving Heard, though this relationship was never confirmed.

A source close to Heard revealed that she is doing well, focusing on motherhood and her daughter, and feels content in Spain. She is happy to be moving forward with her life, free from the drama surrounding Depp and the trial.

As for Depp, he is also reportedly doing well. The source mentioned that he is “very happy to move on with his life and feels redemption. He feels grateful to his true fans and knows who they are. He is prioritizing his career and work.”
