Johnny Depp’s Friend Claims Amber Heard ‘Ruined His Life’
As part of the new “Johnny Vs Amber” Discovery+ documentary, Depp’s friend Bill Hanti elaborated on his reasons for believing that Heard “ruined” the actor’s life, reported Geo TV. For instance, Johnny’s former bandmate believes that Amber “got inside John’s head and made him absolutely crazy to the point where he was drinking and drugging, to the point of insanity.”
Hanti and Depp became friends in the 1980’s, per the Daily Mail. As fellow musicians, the two performed in the band, The Kids. But then came Johnny’s acting success in 1984’s “A Nightmare On Elm Street.” That breakout role led to Depp shifting his focus from music to acting.
But according to Johnny’s friend Bill Hanti, one of the actor’s roles actually sparked his problems with now estranged wife Amber. Heard “just saw [Depp] coming” and pushed herself into his life beginning with her co-starring role in 2011’s “The Rum Diary,” alleges Hanti. As a result, Johnny’s friend believes that the actress “got the opportunity to be a part of that film and she worked it.”
‘Don’t Marry Her – You’re Johnny Depp!’ Says Pal
In the documentary, Hanti even questions why Depp decided to tie the knot with Heard. The musician, who also confesses that he never met Amber in person, also stated his concerns about the age difference. But despite lacking a personal acquaintance, he believes he saw enough to blame the actress for having “ruined” Johnny’s life.
“I do understand that she’s half his age. I get it. OK, John, she’s 25. I get it. Don’t marry her. You don’t need to marry her. You’re Johnny Depp,” points out Hanti. “Ruined his life, it really did… It totally f***ed his career over, cost him his friends, part of his family. She got inside John’s head and made him absolutely crazy to the point where he was drinking and drugging, to the point of insanity.”
Johnny Depp ‘F***** Up’ Relationship With Ex Vanessa Paradis?
But the “Pirates Of The Caribbean” star did make the right move with regard to one relationship, says Hanti. Depp’s friend believes that Johnny and his former partner Vanessa Paradis enjoyed a magical relationship. But their romance, which lasted from 1998 until 2012,” got ruined by the actor, claims Hanti.
“He had something special with Vanessa and he f***ed it up,” added Depp’s pal bluntly. Johnny and Vanessa co-parent two children, 22-year-old Lily-Rose Depp and 19-year-old Jack Depp. Looking back, Hanti describes Paradis as a “beautiful soul” and beautiful lady” throughout her relationship with Johnny.
