59-year-old Johnny Depp would be in a relationship with his 37-year-old ex-lawyer Joelle Rich.
The couple met in 2018, in a professional context, when Johnny Depp decided to sue the newspaper The Sun, who had called him a “wife beater”, according to what reports Us Weekly.
It was the lawyer Joelle Rich who had represented him in this case.
Years later, their paths crossed again during the defamation lawsuit against Amber Heard. Although the lawyer was not part of the legal team, she was in the courtroom to support the actor. It was during this trial that their relationship evolved. “Their chemistry is just amazing. It’s really serious between them,” said a source in an interview with Us Weekly.
“She had no professional obligation which required her to be present at the trial against Amber Heard. It was personal,” she added.
The lawyer was separated from her husband, with whom she has two children, when she started dating Johnny Depp “discreetly”, their meetings taking place mainly at the hotel at their beginnings.
