He was born on June 9, 1963, in Owensboro, Kentucky, as John Christopher Depp II. He is the son of three older siblings.
He dated Kate Moss from 1994 to 1998, then Vanessa Paradis from 1998 to 1999, when he started dating the French actress and singer.
Actress Amber Heard, whom Johnny met on the production of "The Rum Diary" the year before, became Depp's new girlfriend when he split from Paradis (2011).
They married in February 2015. In January 2017, the divorce was formalized, with Depp paying Heard $7 million in a settlement.
Depp sued Heard for $50 million for defamation in December 2018 after she published an op-ed in The Washington Post.
An estimated $3.6 million per year is spent on 40 full-time staff members, $30,000 per month on wine and security, as well as $200,000 per month on private jet travel for Depp.
