Intoxicating feelings, publicity, high-profile scandals, and a flame that did not fade between lovers throughout the entire novel. We tell you why the most outrageous star couple of the end of the 20th century broke up.
Johnny Depp’s personal life is a topic for a doctoral dissertation. It seems this guy hasn’t missed a single legendary beauty! This affair with supermodel Kate Moss turned out to be just an encyclopedia of vices…
Kate Moss
Thin and not yet fully formed, Kate, at the age of 13, along with her mother, was spotted by the owner of the Storm modeling agency at the airport after returning from a vacation in the Bahamas. The meeting turned out to be fateful: the girl was offered to plunge into the modeling sphere. At the age of 14, instead of lessons, young Moss was already hard at work on her portfolio, and a year after leaving school in 1990, she first appeared on the cover of the British magazine The Face.
Since then, Kate has revolutionized fashion. The girl completely changed the standards of modeling, introducing a fashion for androgyny and incorporeality. Calvin Klein was the first to pay attention to her. In 1993, Moss was on the cover of Vogue magazine, and by 2015 she had appeared on the pages of the fashion bible as many as 30 times.
Johnny Depp
Unlike Moss, Johnny Depp could not finish his studies at school. At the age of 12, he began to smoke and abuse alcohol. The actor’s father was also a drunkard and regularly beat his wife and children, which is why young Depp tried to appear at home as little as possible. The teenager was kicked out of school. When the guy was 15 years old, his parents filed for divorce, after which Johnny became addicted to drugs and, together with other guys, founded a rock band.
At the age of 16, the guy moved to Los Angeles. At first, he did not even have money to rent a house. The future actor spent the night in a friend’s car. He devoted all his free time to the music.
At the age of 20, Depp married a make-up artist, whose marriage quickly fell apart, but the girl managed to introduce the guy to Hollywood star Nicolas Cage. Thus began Depp’s film career, where he eventually became a cult figure.
Cocaine romance
Johnny Depp and Kate Moss met in 1994 at the New York Cafe Table and immediately realized that this meeting would be fateful for both. Moss was at the height of her popularity at the time, battling rumors of heroin addiction and filling the void with late-night parties. And Depp was just starting his career path and was clearly fascinated by the rebellious nature of the chosen one. The lovers did not part until 1998.
The tabloids immediately called their romance cocaine. Young people, as if intoxicated with drugs and alcohol, did not miss a moment to show their passion. Scandalous antics, excessive demonstrativeness, unique style, shocking – this is how the relationship between Depp and Moss can be characterized. No rumors, sidelong glances, and chuckles could disturb their idyll. They found each other and seemed never ready to leave. The lovers spent all their free time together, and the best option for this was a hotel room – so as not to go anywhere and fully enjoy each other.
Kate introduced herself to journalists under the surname Depp, although she stated that she did not consider this relationship serious and did not see a future with Johnny. But the actor amused the media with his thoughts about having children. With serious intentions or for the sake of spice – we will not know.
After some time, celebrities began to quarrel often. In September 1994, the supermodel announced the breakup, which is why Depp angrily trashed a room at the Mark Hotel and was arrested. The media got pictures of the actor, handcuffed. This was followed by another high-profile scandal with breaking dishes in a London restaurant. However, reconciliation took place there, and no less violently: the couple made love in front of other visitors among the fragments of broken dishes.
In 1994, Annie Leibovitz took a naked Kate in Johnny’s arms for Vanity Fair, which called the young people the Couple of the Decade.
It seems that the beauty finally turned Depp’s head with her promiscuity and at the same time childish innocence, rudeness, and at the same time incredible tenderness. He was jealous of her and seemed to be afraid of losing the girl more than anything. Johnny gave Kate expensive gifts. So, in 1994, the actor bought his beloved a diamond necklace, which he hid between his buttocks. And having become the owner of the Viper Room club, on Kate’s 21st birthday he gave her a surprise by inviting all the girl’s friends and members of her family to the holiday. Moss was moved to tears by the gift.
Parting
Kate Moss and Johnny Depp did not hide their feelings from the paparazzi and always quickly reconciled after quarrels. But at some point, they stopped appearing in public together. The stars parted quietly, without too much publicity and official statements. Depp later admitted that he cried for several days after the breakup, but Moss took several years to survive the devastation and recover.
Their feelings were so sincere and crazy that they probably became dangerous. The most pleasant and at the same time sad for fans of a crazy love story is that Moss and Depp both admitted twenty years later that they miss that period and remember it with warmth. “There was no one in the whole wide world who cared about me, who really cared about me. And Johnny was the first to show that he cared about me. I believed every word he said. I asked his advice on what to do in this or that situation, and always did what he told me, ”the model shared in 2012. And Johnny said that he still does not understand why they did not then fight for a relationship and start a family.
