Jack Depp’s famous father, Johnny Depp, likes to keep his life with his children private. He speaks little of them to the public, but, when he does, it’s obvious how much he loves his children. He shared with Rolling Stone that he makes sure that both his son, Jack Depp, and his daughter, Lily-Rose Depp, feel loved. “With my kids,” he said, “they’re told 75 times a day that they’re loved.”
That love for his son and daughter is a main reason why the actor wants to clear his name in his high-profile defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard. He’s stated that he’s there to be honest and that he doesn’t want to subject his kids to further scrutiny. “I wanted to clear my children of this horrid thing that they were having to read about their father that was untrue,” Johnny noted while on the stand (via The Sunday Times).
During a sit-down chat with GQ in 2018, the “Pirates of the Caribbean” actor discussed the infamous People magazine cover photo of a bruised Amber. Johnny said he was sure it wasn’t easy for his son to have his friends think his dad had done the awful things that Heard has alleged. He didn’t understand why they should have to endure any of the drama, telling GQ, “Why did he have to go through that? Why did my daughter have to go through that?”
