Johnny Depp Said Ex Vanessa Paradis Was A ‘French Extortionist C***’ In An Email For Elton John
“On the other side of the coin… my kids have fallen head over heels in deep love with Amber.”
Johnny Depp had referred to her ex-girlfriend Vanessa Paradis in a series of text messages from the man who was blasting out her partners. The 58-year-old actor was testifying when Heard’s legal team presented an email he sent to Elton John as evidence.

The ‘Minamata’ star had recounted that Heard would not stop picking fights with him, constantly asking him to stay while threatening that she “can’t live” without him. Previously, he’d also recounted how he’d escape escalating fights and once had his head banged on the door because he was locking himself in the bathroom showering.

He’d claimed that his two children with Vanessa Paradis, 22-year-old Lily-Rose Depp, and 20-year-old John Christopher ‘Jack’ Depp III, did not like Heard. But the email that comes with the unsavory name for Paradis had mentioned that they’d “fallen head over heels” with Amber.
“On the other side of the coin… my kids have fallen head over heels in deep love with Amber (my girl), and that pressure off my shoulders is f***ing gone!!!” he wrote in the email for Elton John.
“‘That is unlike the ‘French extortionist (ex c***) attempts to brainwash them against her… which, I’m sure is imminent.”

He had previously attributed the singer’s involvement to help him recover from his addiction to drugs and alcohol. This was during the early stages of the former couple’s relationship back in 2013 before they got married in 2015.

He texted the man with thanks, “If it weren’t for you, I would’ve been swallowed up by the monster if it weren’t for you. That is a simple fact.”
The actor continued to comment in the court, “Elton was a dear friend who has been sober for 40 years […] We had had discussion, and he wanted me to get clean, sober…”
But he was interrupted by Benjamin Rottenborn, Heard’s lawyer, who thought he was straying from the topic. While keeping his cool and in the most Depp’s way ever, the actor reacted, “I’ll just stop talking.”

“I want to be respectful of the court’s time, and I trust you do, too?” the lawyer continued. But Depp, with pure confusion, replied, “I don’t feel that I’m wasting anyone’s time.”
Aside from his email, several text messages have also been acquired from the man’s phone through methods unmentioned. During the cross-examination, Depp recounted his close friendship with fellow ‘Avengers’ star Paul Bettany as lawyers spoke of their times spent drinking and taking pills together.
