An unexpected connection. Johnny Depp and Joelle Rich turned their professional relationship into something more after the attorney represented him in court. (Read More Here).
Us Weekly broke the news of the Pirates of the Caribbean star’s romance with Rich on September 22. Prior to Depp’s relationship with his lawyer, the actor was married to #AmberHeard from 2015 to 2017. Following 15 months of marriage, the actress filed for divorce and obtained a temporary restraining order after she accused the Kentucky native of domestic violence.
The star, who has denied the claims, ended up in several lengthy court battles after the U.K. newspaper The Sun referred to him as a “wife beater” in a 2018 article. At the time, Depp hired Rich to represent him in the libel lawsuit. The Oscar nominee ultimately lost his overseas case two years later.
In 2018, Depp also took action against his ex-wife after she penned a Washington Post op-ed. The Edward Scissorhands star argued that Heard’s article negatively impacted his acting career. The Texas native, for her part, also alleged that she lost out on jobs due to the high-profile split and their messy legal battles.
In June 2022, a jury ruled in favor of Depp after several weeks of testimonies. Later that year, Us broke the news that Depp was romantically involved with Rich. “Their chemistry is off the charts,” an insider exclusively told Us in September 2022. “It’s serious between them. They are the real deal.”
