Kate Moss, Winona Ryder, Amber Heard – Johnny Depp’s Love Saga
Johnny Depp, The Hopeless Romantic
It is hard to escape Johnny Depp’s charm. Despite facing charges of domestic violence, the actor has an army of female fans rooting for him in his defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard which is currently taking place at Fairfax county, in Virginia. Deep had, in his illustrious career, been quite a hopeless romantic, falling in love several times, especially with his co-stars.
Here’s a look back at the actor’s high profile relationships that grabbed news headlines and defined pop culture.
Lori Anne Allison: The One Who Made Depp Famous
Johnny Depp got married for the first time with makeup artist Lori Anne Allison who was instrumental in Depp’s success in Hollywood. The couple tied the knot in 1983 and although they were only married for two years, it was Allison who introduced the star to Nicholas Cage who helped him bag his ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’ role. The 1984 horror film was an instant success catapulting Depp to stardom.
Jennifer Grey: From Crush To Being Cast Aside
Johnny Depp reportedly had a massive crush on the ‘Dirty Dancing’ star, and insisted her agent to introduce him to her. The two met on a blind date, and there were instant fireworks. They ran into an hasty engagement, and Grey was absolutely in love with the actor when suddenly Depp switched gears and moved onto Winona Rider.
Winona Ryder: Not Forever After All
One of the most talked about relationships that Depp had been in, was with his ‘Edward Scissorhands’ co-star Winona Ryder. Ryder and Depp were also famous, engaged and so much in love that Depp went ahead and got a tattoo that said, ‘Winona Forever’. Unfortunately for the couple though, their relationship came to an end in 1993, just three years after it began on the sets of a surrealist film. Depp still has the tattoo, but the words have been changed to ‘Wino Forever.’
Kate Moss: The Loyal Supporter
The relationship between the famous British model Kate Moss and Johnny Depp began in 1994, when the pair met in a New York restaurant. The couple dated for four years before calling it quits. Reportedly, Moss spent “years of crying” after their romance ended.
However, the model only had good things to say about her ex- love at the recent Amber Heard and Johnny Depp trail. There had been rumours that Depp had pushed Moss down the stairs when they were dating, and Amber Heard had brought this topic up in her testimony but Moss had appeared as a witness for Depp during the recent trial and trashed those rumors as untrue.
