Poor treatment by Johnny Depp, but Vanessa Paradis still protects the actor from allegations of abuse from Amber Heard. Currently, in contrast to the increasingly emaciated image of her ex-husband, the female singer has a rather fulfilling life with her husband.
Johnny Depp and Amber Heard ‘s $50 million lawsuit is coming to an end. Who was right and who was wrong? The outcome is unknown. Amber’s protector, Johnny’s advocate. But there is a third character that, when speaking, everyone has to admire, that is Johnny’s ex-girlfriend Vanessa Paradis. Because after 14 years of loving each other without a wedding, giving Johnny two children and being left by him because of a more beautiful young woman, Vanessa still believes in Johnny and defends him.
The French muse is infatuated with “pirates”, accepting to be “a wife without name”
Vanessa Paradis was born in 1972 in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, near Paris. Her parents are interior designers André and Corinne Paradis. Paradis’ singing career began at the age of 8. She was invited by her uncle, record producer Didier Pain, to appear on the child vocal talent show L’École des fans.
Since the age of 14, Vanessa has achieved success as a singer through the single “Joe le taxi”. Since then, she has become a famous singer and actress in France. During the 1980s and 1990s, achieving consecutive successes in music and film careers , and possessing beautiful beauty, Vanessa was the dream girl of many French boys.
In 1994, at a friend’s house, she met Johnny Depp for the first time – the man who later became the most beautiful love of Vanessa’s life. At this time, Johnny is dating British supermodel Kate Moss. However, Vanessa said she felt attracted to Johnny from the first time they met.
After ending a 4-year relationship with Kate Moss, Johnny had a chance to meet Vanessa again when filming the movie “The Ninth Gate” in 1998. They quickly became a couple since then.
Johnny recalled: “I saw her across the room and thought, ‘What’s going on with me? It’s one of those instant connections. I can’t explain this feeling.”
At the age of 26, Vanessa gave all her heart and youth to Johnny. His career ups or downs, she is always by his side. Just 3 months after dating, Vanessa became pregnant with their first child and gave birth to baby girl Lily-Rose in 1999. Happiness doubled when 3 years later, the couple welcomed another son Jack.
Been married and engaged many times before, but this is Johnny’s first time being a father. The actor shared, the children that Vanessa gave birth to him were the best and changed Johnny’s life.
During the time they fell in love and had children, Johnny Depp’s career became more and more sublimated, especially since he received the main role in the blockbuster “Pirates of the Caribbean”. This also means that he is often away from home to film around the world and promote the film.
As a solid rear for her husband, Vanessa always ensures that her family is always closest to each other. She and her children often move with Johnny everywhere to be with him, helping to keep family feelings strong.
Loved each other for many years, but the couple was never married. Regarding the reason for not having a wedding with Vanessa, Johnny said: “I never felt the need for a marriage certificate. Marriage is the connection of soul to soul, heart to heart. You don’t need anyone to claim you’re married.” In addition, the actor said that Vanessa’s Paradis last name is so beautiful that he was afraid to ruin it after marrying her.
Vanessa herself also said about not getting married: “I love the romance of ‘Let’s get married’. But when you’re in a perfect relationship… I mean, I’m like married, we’ve got two kids together. Maybe one day, I will get married, but if not, that’s okay .”
Make the world respect for an act of Johnny Depp
In 2011, while still living with Vanessa and their children, Johnny starred in the movie “The Rum Diary” and met his co-star Amber Heard, 22 years younger than him. Amber is an openly bisexual and is currently dating photographer Tasya van Ree.
Just a year later, Johnny broke up with Vanessa, Amber broke up with Tasya to get together. The fact that Johnny ended his 14-year love affair with the woman who gave him two children but never married made the public at that time extremely surprised and angry on behalf of Vanessa.
After the breakup, Johnny bought Vanessa a $4.4 million mansion in Hollywood so that his ex-girlfriend and their two children could live near him. In addition, he also divided Vanessa 150 million of his assets, although he was not obliged to.
Although he “compensated” for Vanessa, Johnny still surprised many people when he quickly proposed to Amber and gave the beauty to two weddings – something he had never done with Vanessa. Johnny didn’t even think about signing a property division agreement before marrying Amber.
As for Vanessa, she was silent, did not insult her ex-boyfriend, nor did she publicly speak ill of Amber in the newspaper. When Johnny called to announce the engagement news, the actress only wished Johnny happiness.
Putting aside the troubles of the past, Vanessa started a new love with male singer of the same age Benjamin Biolay. A few days after Johnny got married to Amber, Vanessa gave Benjamin a kiss on the street, in front of the cameras as if to prove she was fine. Contrary to the negative reaction about Johnny’s wedding with Amber, the public congratulated Vanessa and wished her happiness.
In 2016, Johnny fell into trouble when his mother passed away, Amber filed for divorce and asked for benefits, along with photos that confirmed she was a victim of domestic abuse by him. Even some stars and many netizens sided with Amber, criticizing Johnny. Amber’s move is not only a financial dispute, but also greatly affects Johnny’s reputation and image.
Soon after, many of Johnny’s relatives spoke out against Amber to protect him, from ex-wife Lori Anne Allison to Johnny and Vanessa’s daughter Lily-Rose. Lori Anne Allison – the first wife Johnny married in 1983 – insists that he is a gentle person and never raises his voice to her, let alone touches her hands.
Daughter Lily-Rose posted a picture of her childhood with her father and wrote: “My father is the sweetest loving person I know, he has been a great dad to my little brother and me, and everyone who knows him will say the same.”
As for Vanessa, before her ex-boyfriend who betrayed her after 14 years of being together must receive “bitter fruit”, she has the right to silently ignore or even mock her ex. But no, Vanessa wrote a letter to tell the truth about the man she once loved, without hesitation.
In a letter to the media, Vanessa wrote: “To everyone who may be involved, Johnny Depp is my father of two. He is a sensitive person, rich in love and loved by everyone. And with all my heart, I believe the accusations being made are truly offensive.
In all the years I’ve known Johnny, he’s never physically abused me, and that’s completely unlike the man I’ve been with for 14 wonderful years.”
Vanessa’s letter soon generated many more responses in favor of Johnny and admiration for Vanessa herself. Readers commented on Dailymail: “Vanessa has every right to grieve over Johnny leaving her for Amber, and could have kept quiet, letting his reputation be ruined. But here she is, supporting the man she once loved. What a wonderful woman! I believe Johnny is innocent. A fool, but not an abuser.”
“Vanessa is such a delicate woman! It takes a great heart for her to stand up to protect him like that after what he did”, “I don’t believe what Amber said”, … are other comments that are most shared on Dailymail. .
Before that, when he testified for Depp at the Depp lawsuit against Heard for defamation in 2020, Paradis still sided with the ex.
Currently, it is not known who is Johnny and Amber who will win the lawsuit. But one thing can be clearly seen, Vanessa is the person who is respected the most by the public. 14 years of sacrificing youth for a man, twice carrying a painful birth and never once wearing a wedding dress, finally left by that man, is there any other woman who can tolerate it? like Vanessa, can stand up to protect someone who betrayed her love like that?
