“He’s homeless living on the streets,” thinks one fan about handsome Hollywood Johnny Depp after his private visiting local music shop
Since winning his six-year defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard, Johnny Depp has kept a low profile. The actor is now focused on his well-being and planning his next steps. However, a recent antique shopping trip drew attention to his outfit, prompting mixed reactions from fans.
The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star endured a lengthy defamation lawsuit against Heard, who accused him of domestic violence. The couple married in 2015 in a private island ceremony, but their marriage ended after just 15 months. Heard filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences and obtained a temporary restraining order against Depp, alleging domestic violence.
Their divorce was finalized in 2016 with a $7 million settlement. However, in 2019, Depp sued Heard for defamation over a 2018 Washington Post article in which she accused him of sexual abuse. The court proceedings began on April 11, 2022, with both parties alleging physical, emotional, and mental abuse.
The highly publicized trial concluded on June 1, 2022, with the jury finding that Heard’s article was defamatory. Depp was awarded $15 million in damages, though Heard reportedly cannot afford to pay the full amount. Depp’s lawyers, Camille Vasquez and Benjamin Chew, appeared on Good Morning America to discuss their victory, emphasizing that Depp’s primary goal was to restore his reputation.
In a statement, Depp reflected on the impact of the false allegations on his and his children’s lives and expressed gratitude to the court for restoring his reputation. He concluded, “The best is yet to come, and a new chapter has finally begun. Veritas numquam perit. Truth never perishes.”
Post-trial, Depp is reportedly focused on his mental and physical health, with plans to return to acting. An insider revealed that Depp is trying to stay positive and avoid dwelling on the past. Another source mentioned that Depp, now in a good place, has even started dating again.
Despite his low profile, Depp’s recent public appearance at an antique store attracted attention. Robert Miller, owner of Hemswell Antique Centres, described Depp as down-to-earth and pleasant, noting that the actor enjoyed browsing and playing guitars in the store.
Photos of Depp’s visit sparked diverse reactions from fans. Many expressed happiness for his win and praised his resilience, while some were puzzled by his unconventional outfit. Depp wore an all-gray ensemble, featuring a worn jacket with holes, patched denim pants with unfinished hems, a blue denim hat, a checkered scarf, maroon gloves, and his signature blue glasses. While some fans thought his attire was perfect for antique shopping, others felt he looked homeless. Regardless, fans were delighted to see Depp enjoying his freedom and moving forward with his life.
