Johnny Deep got some more moral and legal support in his $50 million defamation lawsuit in Virginia against ex-wife Amber Heard.
Vanessa Paradis, the actor’s former longtime partner, came to the defense of the Pirates Of The Caribbean star in a legal declaration that was submitted to the court.
‘I have known Johnny Deep for more than 25 Years,’ Paradis wrote in the court documents obtained by The Blast.
‘We’ve been partners for 14 years and we raised out two children together. Through all these years, I’ve known Johnny to be kind, attentive, generous, and a non-violent person and father.’
The case: Johnny Depp filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against Heard in March 2019 over an op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post where she claimed she was abused by the movie star as his ex Vanessa Paradis came to his defense

The actress went on to acknowledge that she’s been aware of Heard’s accusations of physical and emotional abuse for more than four years.
‘This is nothing like the true Johnny I have known, and from my personal experience of many years, I can say he was never violent or abusive to me.’
She even went as far as to call Heard’s allegation untrue.
‘I have seen that these outrageous statements have been really distressing, and also caused damage to his career because, unfortunately, people have gone on believing these false facts,’ she explained.

Several other of Depp’s famous friends and ex-partners have publicly come to the defense of the actor, including Penelope Cruz and Winona Ryder, who herself submitted a legal declaration and stated, from her experience, that it was ‘impossible to believe that such horrific allegations are true.’
She added, ‘I find it extremely upsetting knowing him as I do.’
Depp, 56, filed the defamation lawsuit against Heard in March 2019 over an op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post in December 2018, in which she claimed she was abused by Deep.
As part of his lawsuit, Deep claimed that Heard had physically abused him during their marriage rather than the other way around, a claim Heard has denied.
Moving on: Depp and Heard, who were married in 2015, reached a settlement and finalized their divorce in January 2017, which included the dismissal of the restraining order and Depp paying her $7 million, which she donated to charity, as they are seen together in January 2016
Deep and Paradis, a French singer and actress, were together from 1999 to 2012, and share daughter Lily-Rose, 20, and son John Christopher, 17.
Deep and Heard were married in February 2015. She filed for divorce in May of 2016, along with a temporary restraining order against him, stating in a court declaration that he had been verbally and physically abusive during their relationship.
The two sides reached a settlement and finalized the divorce in January 2017, which included the dismissal of the restraining order and Deep paying her $7 million that she subsequently donated to charity.
