Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis split?

Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis

So a couple weeks back, a rumor circulated that Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis had split up, and I kind of ignored it because (A) It was a rumor, and not a very exciting one, and (B) Johnny Depp? Meh. Anyway, now it’s showing up again as the cover story of People magazine, which is usually pretty good about not reporting on straight-up bullshit, so these two might actually be for reals dunzo.

Once upon a time, Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis lived a quiet family life far from the spotlight in the sleepy French hamlet of Plan-de-la-Tour. But that time is no more, and now the couple largely reside in L.A. – when they are in the same city at all. Depp, 48, and Paradis, 39, who are parents to Lily-Rose, 12, and Jack, 9, have not appeared side-by-side on a red carpet for more than a year. Multiple sources tell People in this week’s cover story that the relationship is all but officially finished. In fact, some in their circle say the couple of nearly 14 years have already split. Says one insider: “It’s so sad.”

Well, I guess if anyone out there has ever wanted to bang a pair of hipster skeletons with shitloads of money, now’s your chance. Go nuts I guess.
