Vanessa Paradis attends a fashion event as her ex-husband Johnny Depp is on trial
In the midst of ex-Johnny Depp’s continuing defamation lawsuit against Amber Heard, Vanessa Paradis was photographed at the Chanel Cruise show in Monte Carlo, Monaco, on Thursday.
The French model, who has two children with Depp, Lily-Rose, 22, and Jack, 20, wore a Chanel tweed jacket over a white top.
With the ocean as her background, she finished the ensemble with jeans and black-and-pink shoes, smiling for the photographers.
Paradis, 49, was photographed only days after Depp’s defamation suit revealed that he had dubbed her a “French extortionist c–t” in an email to Elton John.
Depp, 58, admitted the violent language was directed towards Paradis, whom he dated from 1998 to 2012, while being cross-examined by Heard’s lawyer, Ben Rottenborn.
Following their divorce, he claimed she tried to turn their children against Heard.
“You were referring to Vanessa Paradis, the mother of your children, when you branded the French extortionist a ‘ex-c–t,’ correct?” Rottenborn had inquired.
“Yes, sir,” Depp said, admitting that his relationship with Paradis at the time was poor.
Regardless, during Depp’s 2020 lawsuit against The Sun tabloid, which he eventually lost, Paradis sought to defend Depp from Heard’s charges that he was a “wife beater.”
“I’ve known Johnny to be a kind, caring, kind, and non-violent guy and parent for all these years. “On set, the actors, directors, and whole crews admire him because he is modest and polite to everyone, as well as one of the greatest performers we’ve seen,” she said at the time.
“I’m aware of the claims that Amber Heard has made public about Johnny over the last four years. This is not the Johnny I knew, and based on my many years of personal experience, I can assure he was never aggressive or abusive to me,” the statement added.
“I’ve seen how these ludicrous remarks have both distressed him and harmed his career because, sadly, people have continued to believe these fake facts.” This is really disappointing since he has been so nice and kind to so many people in his personal and professional life.”
