Johnny Depp, who starred in "Pirates of the Caribbean," is one of
Hollywood's most recognizable performers. Throughout his distinguished
career, he has made appearances in a number of Tim Burton films, including
"Edward Scissorhands," "Sleepy Hollow," "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,"
and "Alice in Wonderland." Depp, one of the most well-known movie actors in
the world, was named the highest-paid actor by Guinness World Records in
2012.
One of the most promising heartthrobs of the 1990s as his career took off,
Johnny Depp has been linked to a number of women. He was wed to makeup
artist Lori Allison from 1983 until 1985. Later, he also dated Sherilynn
Fenn and Jennifer Grey. He got engaged to Winona Ryder, his "Edward
Scissorhands" co-star, in the early 1990s. They finally split up, and he
then started dating model Kate Moss.
Following his romance with Kate Moss, Depp met Vanessa Paradis, who gave
birth to Lily-Rose and Jack Depp. However, the marriage did not last, and it
was annulled in 2012, a year after Johnny Depp started seeing Amber Heard.
The couple's 2015 marriage came to an end a year later when Heard requested
a divorce.
Amber Heard, an American actress, was well-known before she was
romantically linked to Johnny Depp for her parts in a number of American
films, such as "The Rum Diary," "Pineapple Express," "Magic Mike XXL," "All
the Boys Love Mandy Lane," and "Pineapple Express."
However, Mera from the "Aquaman" film series had her most noteworthy screen
appearance in the DC Comics Extended Universe. She has already appeared in
"Justice League" and "Aquaman" as the character. Heard was originally set to
feature in a third movie, "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom," but was ultimately
removed from the project due to backlash from fans over the defamation
lawsuit Johnny Depp was facing.
In 2016, Amber Heard requested a temporary restraining order against Johnny
Depp, alleging that he had repeatedly physically and verbally abused her
throughout their marriage.
In a statement, Amber Heard claimed that Johnny had subjected her to
"severe emotional, verbal, and physical abuse," including "angry,
aggressive, humiliating, and frightening attacks against me anytime I
questioned his authority or disagreed with him."
Even though the divorce was settled, Depp sought legal action in the UK
when The Sun labeled him a "wife abuser." Depp did not appreciate the
defamatory statements made about him, so he chose to hire Joelle Rich, a
British attorney who specializes in defamation matters.
However, despite their best efforts, Depp's legal team was unable to
prevail in that particular case. However, it appears that the actor gained
something more priceless: a blossoming romance with Joelle Rich.
According to Tatler, Joelle Rich is a partner at Schillings LLP with
offices in London. Johnny Depp hired them to represent him in his UK
defamation case against The Sun. Rich is a highly skilled litigator who
works to safeguard the reputations of people and families in the public eye
by fighting back against slanderous claims made in print, online, and on
social media.
Rich has also defended Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, in a case against
Mail on a Sunday, in addition to Johnny Depp. She has extensive expertise
with libel, privacy, and copyright matters and has been navigating media law
for ten years. According to the Schillings website, Joelle Rich was a member
of the team that won prominent privacy and copyright issues that received a
lot of media attention.
Joelle Rich attended the court proceedings in the 2022 trial of Johnny Depp
and Amber Heard, but not in the capacity of a defense attorney. Instead, she
attended as a fan of the musician actor.
After Rich was observed on the court as a spectator, there were rumors
about the two's connection, according to PEOPLE Magazine. However, the myth
was dispelled as it emerged that Rich was wed. She was reportedly seen at
many hearings at the Virginia Court, according to the magazine. She was also
captured on camera hugging Camille Vasquez, kissing Johnny Depp, and leaving
court after another hearing.
However, the true score between the actor and his attorney is eventually
exposed, and it appears to have evolved into something that would make both
of them pleased, months after the court favored Johnny Depp in the slander
lawsuit.
The relationship between Johnny Depp and Joelle Rich has been officially
verified, according to US Weekly.
"Their chemistry is incredible. They have a major disagreement. They are
the real stuff, the source assured the magazine covering
entertainment.
The insider also clarified why Joelle Rich attended the trial of Amber
Heard and Johnny Depp, which took place in Virginia from April to June
2022.
She was not required to be there for work purposes. According to the
source, it was personal. Evidently, when the adorable couple first started
dating, they only met up at hotels since they were still being
"discreet."
Joelle Rich was still married to her husband in 2018 when she first met
Johnny Depp. Since then, she has been working on a divorce settlement.
Joelle Rich, like her lover Johnny Depp, who is the joyful father of two
children, Lily Rose and Jack, has two lovely children.
