Johnny Depp has revealed he’s happy he waited to have children until he got together with Vanessa Paradis.
The couple started dating in 1998 and have two children – ten-year-old Lily Rose and seven-year-old Jack – but the actor had been married before and had been engaged to a number of women, including Kate Moss.
He told Vanity Fair magazine: “I’m glad I didn’t have children until Vanessa and I got together.”
Johnny added: “I think when you are young, you are hoping that this person will be the right one, the one you are going to be in love with forever but sometimes you want that so much you create something that isn’t really there.
“I went through a number of relationships when I was younger because of that.”
The Pirates Of The Caribbean actor said of his relationship with wife Lori Anne Allison, who he married in 1983 and split from in 1985.
“I was very young when I married Lori Anne and probably it was because I was trying to create a situation. We married in 1983 but it didn’t last very long and that was probably because I wasn’t ready to handle such a commitment.”
Johnny then went on to date Jennifer Grey, Winona Ryder and Kate Moss, but he said: “It wasn’t until I met Vanessa that life started to be real.”
Today is June 9, 2009 and our leading man turns 46! On behalf of all his fans, Johnny Depp Network extends it’s warmest wishes to Johnny and hope he had a fantastic birthday with his family, friends and loved ones!
Johnny Depp was No. 1 and Christian Bale was No. 2 on IMDB.com’s list of the top movie stars of 2008.
IMDB.com, a subsidiary of Seattle-based Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), said the rankings were determined by its Starmeter tool that ranks celebrities’ popularity. Depp has ranked No. 1 for five years in a row.
Rounding out the list’s top 10 were Heath Ledger, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Kristen Stewart, Will Smith and Gerard Butler.
“The Starmeter list is a true gauge of what’s hot in pop culture based on actual user interest and visits to a star’s page,” said Keith Simanton, managing editor, IMDB.com, in a statement.
“Sure, I find it touching, honestly, but awards are not as important to me as when I meet a 10-year-old kid who says, ‘I love Captain Jack Sparrow.’ That’s real magic for me.”
