Johnny Depp and Amber Heard are in the midst of a legal battle, with various revelations being made about their relationship and personal lives.
The actor, 58, is suing Heard, 35, for libel over a 2018 article she wrote in The Washington Post, titled ‘I spoke up against sexual violence – and faced our culture’s wrath’, in which she discussed her experiences of domestic abuse.
Depp’s lawyers say the article falsely implies Aquaman star Heard was physically and sexually abused by the Pirates Of The Caribbean actor when they were married and is seeking $50million (£39m) in damages.
They tied the knot in 2015 and divorced in 2017 but it’s not the first time the Pirates of the Caribbean actor has been married.
The actor has had various long-term relationships, with his family life being pretty out in the spotlight.

Johnny has two children – Lily-Rose, 22, and Jack, 20 – both with Vanessa Paradis, who he dated from 1998 to 2012.
Lily-Rose is an actress in her own right, starting her career in the film Tusk in 2014.
She went on to appear in The Dancer in 2016, Planetarium the same year, and The King alongside Timothee Chalamet in 2019.
The young actress is also set to star alongside The Weeknd in her first TV role, HBO’s The Idol, which is currently in development.

Following Johnny’s loss in his libel trial in the UK, after The Sun newspaper labelled him a ‘wife-beater’, Lily-Rose spoke out.
‘You can’t be perfect all the time. Nobody’s perfect. Period,’ she told Entertainment Tonight. ‘I think that’s just the fact of life.
‘But I think a big part of keeping a good head on your shoulders is just having a lot of self-awareness and never feeling like you take yourself too seriously to put your actions back into question.’
Jack, however, keeps a little more out of the spotlight, with Johnny previously saying he has no ambitions of becoming an actor.
‘My boy, Jack, has always been a very talented draftsman,’ Johnny told Philippine Daily Inquirer.
‘He draws really super well. He also plays music very well. He’s got a good feel for that. Aside from school plays and things, he hasn’t shown any desire to become an actor. Whew.’
Jack is rarely spotted in public, although a snap of him did the rounds on the internet last year.
