Johnny Depp
Johnny Depp has been acting for almost 40 years and has portrayed many characters on the screen, but among the long list of films he has been in, most know him as Jack Sparrow from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise. Depp was born in Owensboro, Kentucky on June 9, 1963, to parents John and Betty Sue. He moved to Florida and spent a lot of his childhood there. Before starring in movies, primarily as the dark and chilling character, young Depp was in a band called "the Kids." His music career extended later in his career as well, as he was in another band called the "Hollywood Vampires." Depp's past relationships were complicated to say the least, but his first known relationship was with Lori Anne Allison, a makeup artist. The couple moved to Los Angeles, where he got connected with Nicholas Cage, and his decades-long acting career began. His movie debut was in "A Nightmare on Elm Street" in 1984. Although he has been in a lot of popular movies like "Sleepy Hollow," "Alice in Wonderland," and "Sweeney Todd," he is most known for the character that he played for over 10 years, Captain Jack Sparrow. Johnny Depp played Jack Sparrow in five "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies from 2003 to 2017. His "Pirates" costars include Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley. Depp has a net worth of $100 million (per Celebrity Net Worth), a long list of movies behind him and a long list of celebrity girlfriends, wives and proposals. After his divorce from Lori Anne Allison, he had relationships with many big Hollywood names, including Sherilyn Fenn, Jennifer Gray, Winona Ryder, Ellen Barkin and Kate Moss. After Moss, he had a 14-year relationship with with Vanessa Paradis. The former couple share two children together, a daughter, Lily-Rose Depp, and a son Jack Depp. In 2015, Depp and Amber Heard got married, but divorced in 2016. Heard wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post, implying that she was abused by Depp in 2018, and the two have been suing back and fourth since. The two took part in a very public defamation lawsuit in March and April 2022.

Amber Heard
Amber Heard has acted in many television shows and movies including 'Aquaman,' and 'Criminal Minds.' Heard also had a lot of press around her very public relationship with now ex-husband, Johnny Depp. She was born on April 22, 1986, in Austin, Texas to parents Paige and David Heard. Heard, whose net worth is now $-6 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth losing the defamation trial to Depp, got her film debut in the movie, 'Friday Night Lights' in 2004. After that movie, she went on to work in many other films like 'North Country,' 'All the Boys Love Mandy Lane,' 'Pineapple Express' and 'Zombieland.' She also had various television appearances in shows like 'The O.C,' 'Criminal Minds,' 'Californication' and 'Hidden Palms.' Some other films Heard was in during the earlier stages of her career were 'The Stepfather,' 'The Ward,' 'Drive Angry,' 'Syrup,' and '3 Days to Kill.' In 2011, Heard played Chenault in 'The Rum Diary.' She and Depp met during the filming of the movie. They were both in relationships at the time, but eventually started dating in 2012. The pair got married in 2015, but got divorced two years later. They have been in a huge legal battle since Heard wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post, implying that she was abused by Depp. After a six week trial in Fairfax, Virginia that millions tuned in to watch, the jury found that Heard had defamed Depp and awarded the actor $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive, which were reduced to $350,000 due to Virginia's law. Heard was awarded $2 million in compensatory damages due to the statements made by Depp's attorney Adam Waldman. Heard owes $10.35 million to Depp, an amount that her lawyers have said she cannot afford to pay. Heard and her team have tried to appeal, but have been unsuccessful in their endeavors. One big role that the actress is known for is playing Mera, in 'Aquaman' with Jason Mamoa. She also plays the character in the 2017 'Justice League' and in 'Zack Snyder's Justice League.' She is in the 'Aquaman' sequel, 'Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom' that is set to come out in 2023, even though her appearance in the "Aquaman" sequel has became controversial after the legal situation with her and Depp. Even though Depp was Heard's most public relationship, she has also been connected with painter and photographer Tasya van Ree in 2008, model Cara Delevingne, Tesla founder and billionaire Elon musk on and off from 2016-2018 and art dealer Vito Schnabel. She does however have a a daughter Oonagh Paige Heard, who was born via surrogate April 8, 2021.

Amber Heard Dealing With ‘Tricky Situation' Amid Hollywood Comeback: ‘Clock Is Ticking'
Amber Heard has totally reinvented herself in Spain following her court loss to ex-husband Johnny Depp, but she's still keen for an eventual Hollywood comeback – and source exclusively tells In Touch it's slowly coming together as she's attracting the interest of powerful backers. "Amber is dealing with a tricky situation right now because there's real demand for her to get back into the acting game somehow, but it's not going to happen if it's not entirely on her terms,' the insider tells In Touch. 'She has special conditions for coming back and is only entertaining that idea when it's a project where she will have a lot of say on the big decisions about the production, the marketing and the release.' 'Now, for the first time since she was in her 20s, Amber is being assertive about her filmmaking future and demanding some real power,' the insider dishes. 'You can't help but figure that even though she wants nothing to do with Johnny, she's pulling from his playbook a little bit here, because Johnny is so famous for refusing to make any movie unless he's the one calling the shots.' In Touch's source says that Amber 'aspires' to gain the same power as the Pirates of the Caribbean actor, 61, 'but she needs to build up a new track record of hits, and quickly. She's putting herself under pressure to find her comeback film, and the clock is ticking!" Amber entered a brand-new chapter in life after her nasty legal battle with Johnny ended. The Edward Scissorhands actor sued Amber in 2019 for $50 million in a defamation lawsuit following their divorce. Amber countersued for double the amount. The former couple battled it out in court in May 2022, leading the jury to award Johnny $15 million, while Amber was awarded $2 million. Following the highly publicized battle, Amber went far away from the drama and moved to Spain with her now-3-year-old daughter Oonagh Paige. 'She has been living in Spain, where she gets more privacy,' a source told People in April 2023. 'The trial was beyond stressful for her, and she just wanted to start fresh out of the country.' Four months later, Amber announced she was pregnant with baby No. 2. 'It is still quite early in the pregnancy, so you will appreciate that we do not want to go into much detail at this stage,' a rep for the London Fields starlet confirmed to People at the time. 'Suffice to say that Amber is delighted both for herself and Oonagh Paige.' On Mother's Day 2025, Amber announced she welcomed not just baby No. 2, but twins, son Ocean and daughter Agnes. "I am eternally grateful that I was able to choose this responsibly and thoughtfully,' Amber wrote via Instagram in the May 11 Instagram post. 'To all the moms, wherever you are today and however you got here, my dream family and I are celebrating with you. Love always, A x."
