Johnny Depp Fans Are Creeped After Finding Out Who He’s Dating

Johnny Depp, 61, has always been a magnet for attention, whether it’s for his eclectic film roles or his tumultuous personal life. Now, the A-lister is raising eyebrows after it’s been reported he’s dating someone new. But as we all know, this isn’t the first time Depp’s love life has hit the headlines.

Past Relationship with Vanessa Paradis

The Pirates of the Caribbean star was with French singer, model, and actress Vanessa Paradis from 1998 to 2012, and they share two children: Lily-Rose and Jack. Unlike Depp’s other romances, their relationship was relatively private, and since their separation, they have reportedly remained friends.

Controversial Marriage to Amber Heard

The actor’s marriage to Aquaman star Amber Heard has been his most controversial and publicly scrutinized relationship. They met on the set of The Rum Diary in 2009 and tied the knot in 2015. Yet after just one year of marriage, Heard filed for divorce from Depp, citing irreconcilable differences.

Later that year, she would file a domestic restraining order against the star. In 2022, Depp won a defamation case against Heard, with a seven-person jury deciding that the actress defamed the A-lister in her 2018 op-ed for The Washington Post, which did not mention Depp by name.

New Relationship with Yulia Vlasova

Johnny Depp’s latest relationship is also making headlines. The Edward Scissorhands star is reportedly dating Russian beautician and model Yulia Vlasova, based in Prague. She owns a makeup and hairstyling studio and reportedly crossed paths with Depp at the 55th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in 2021.

A source tells People magazine they don’t use the ‘boyfriend-girlfriend labels.’ Another insider claims Depp is ‘really too busy’ to explore any romantic avenue ‘right now.’ While Daily Mail reports the pair have seen each other ‘here and there’ for two years.

Although the two haven’t confirmed the nature of their relationship, Vlasova has reportedly hinted at romance in deleted Instagram posts. One of the first things that has caught fans off guard is Vlasova’s striking resemblance to Johnny Depp’s ex-wife Amber Heard.

People are insisting they share similar facial features, as well as the blonde hair. One person remarks: “Looks like an Amber Heard replica.” Another comments: “In some pics, she reminds me a bit of Amber Heard…” In agreement, a third says: “She has the same type of look.”

Concerns About the Age Difference

Another factor contributing to fans’ unease is the significant age difference between Johnny Depp and Vlasova. While Depp is a Hollywood veteran with a career spanning decades, it’s unclear exactly how old Vlasova is – reports have varied, but most sources claim she is in her late twenties.

Commenting on the age gap, one person opines: “Johnny should find someone his own age, not another younger woman like Amber Heard.” A second writes: “I think you’re a great actor but seriously that woman is young enough to be your daughter! Come on!”

Johnny Depp’s new relationship has certainly stirred up reactions among his fans. Whether it’s Vlasova’s resemblance to Amber Heard or the notable age difference, many are expressing their discomfort. As with many aspects of Depp’s life, his romantic choices continue to captivate and divide public opinion.
