It is difficult to understand where he ended and where she began. They were the most iconic couple of the 90s, and maybe even more. They combined beauty and recklessness, pronounced cheekbones and unruly hair, a passion for poetry and a passion for alcohol. They were together for four years, between 1994 and 1997. Johnny Depp at the time he was 31, Kate Moss 20. He introduced her to the world of art galleries and its bohemian heroes. She, in fashion, creating for each other that mix of vintage and faux-neglected look at the right point.
It seems to have been the journalist of Vanity Fair America George Wayne: ‘Johnny was in the back for dinner and Kate came in with Naomi Campbell. I grabbed it and made the introductions! I had no idea that they would later become the couple par excellence for the seasons to come ». The actor was fresh from the story with Wynona Ryder, Kate was single and ready to take off her career.
It was a planetary love story that brought them to the Ritz hotel in Paris, where he used to rent a suite for $ 18,000 despite her having an apartment in the city, and to the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles (legend has it that they made love in all 63 rooms of the hotel) and again at The Viper Room, always aboard a private jet. Together they destroyed at least one hotel room. It was 1994 when the police were called from the Mark Hotel in Manhattan. It was reported that Johnny was “in a state of possible intoxication.” The charges were later dismissed by the judge, and Johnny paid nearly $ 10,000 in damages for the presidential suite and the bill. The official explanation? Johnny had been “run over by an armadillo that came out of one of the closets.”
In 1997 the first brief separation (to divide them the too many work commitments of him, the attitude of both to want to party), then the reconciliation. In January of the following year Depp would order 36 bottles of champagne to fill a Victorian bathtub at the Portobello Hotel in Notting Hill. Moss’s agent, however, has always denied: “He wasn’t with Kate, it’s not her style”
That year Kate still hoped they would get married, but a few months later he was the one who left her. Their last outing as a duo was at the Cannes Film Festival in May 1998, where Depp was promoting Fear and delirium in Las Vegas. The model allegedly had a confrontation with the management of the Hotel Du Cap, where they were staying, after being told that it was not appropriate for her to run in a bikini through the corridors of the hotel. It is said that she later damaged their room, eventually being banned from the hotel for life.
Not long after, Depp in an interview would have defined himself single: “I was so stupid. I’m the one who has to take responsibility for what happened: it was difficult to get along. I let my work get in the way and I didn’t pay it the attention I should have. ‘ In a few weeks, the actor would meet Vanessa Paradis. Another love at first sight. Three months later, she and Johnny were already expecting their first child. Kate, on the other hand, would have entered rehab for the first time. For Depp, she will admit later, “I’ve been crying for years.” It was the love story, her words, that she defined her life. “There is no one who has ever really been able to take care of me. Johnny did it for a while “the model will tell several years later.
The love between Kate Moss and Johnny Depp is back in the spotlight today, when she testifies – via video link – before the courthouse in Fairfax, Virginia. Depp, we all know by now, brought his ex-wife to trial Amber Heard, accusing her of defamation (for an article in which she portrayed him as a “wife-beater”). For weeks, in America and beyond, it has been defined the trial of horrors. Perhaps even worse than what took place a couple of years ago before the High Court in London. Betrayals, quarrels, turbulent air travel, violence, broken bottles, severed fingers, cocaine streaks on the table, terrible accusations.
Kate Moss she was not one of the ex-girlfriends who had already made statements during the London trial, which was later lost by Depp. Then they had appeared in court Vanessa Paradis And Winona Ryder, both in defense of the actor. Now, however, Kate has been brought up by Amber Heard who, during a deposition, hinted that at the time of their relationship Depp would have pushed the model down the stairs. Depp’s team then took her in court to give her version.
What will Kate Moss say today? We all ask.
