Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis 'Far Far Away' From Each Other

As reported earlier this week, Johnny Depp and his long time love Vanessa Paradis may be about to call off their relationship. For the past few days, the couple’s actions are helping support the allegations.

The french actress-model spent this whole week in Paris. She was spotted on Friday shopping in the Marais district of the city.

Paradis’ primary reason for being in France is so that she can attend the premiere of her film Café de Flore on Monday. According to sources, Depp is in Los Angeles and has no plans to attend his partner’s event. The Hollywood star was seen driving a luxury sports car Thursday and then went to the Hollywood Museum that night.

It seems as though Depp is getting even with Paradis. A few months back the actor attended the premieres of his two movies “The Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” and “The Rum Diary”, solo.

The source says that Depp’s partner was in town for “The Rum Diary” but opted not to go. “She went instead to a concert that night. It was weird and pretty clear: You’re in town and don’t go to the premiere of your husband’s film?”

One has to wonder what happened to this happy couple? In an interview last year, Depp expressed his love for Paradis saying, “I saw that back and that neck, and then she turned around and I saw those eyes – and boom! My life as a single man was done.”

Reps for Depp and Paradis still haven’t commented on the status of their relationship. The duo, who never married after a 14 year relationship have two kids, Lily-Rose, 12, and Jack, 9.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
