Johnny Depp, 61, Reportedly Dating 29-Year-Old Model
Two years after his highly-publicized defamation trial after divorcing Amber Heard, Johnny Depp has seemingly moved on with a new woman. Reportedly, the Pirates of the Caribbean star, 61, is dating a Russian model, Yulia Vlasova, 28.
On Monday, July 15, insiders close to the actor reportedly told the Daily Mail their romance is "casual."
Meanwhile, sources told People that Depp and Vlasova don't use "boyfriend-girlfriend" labels, adding, "They see each other here and there." The publication also listed Vlasova's age as 29 and not 28.
Depp and his beautician lover reportedly met at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in Prague in August 2021. They were most recently spotted together on July 11 at London Heliport in photos obtained by the Daily Mail.

Plenty of folks on X (formerly Twitter) were quick to point out that Depp's daughter, Lily-Rose Depp, is 25—only three (or four) years younger than Vlasova.
One critic wrote, "I see, Johnny Depp is still chasing after women that are closer to his daughter's age than his own."
Another X user shared, "His fans born during the prohibition are melting down over Johnny Depp dating another girl younger than his own daughter."
Meanwhile, others disputed Vlasova's reported age, claiming that in now-deleted social media posts, she revealed she was even younger.
"Why does her Instagram say she turned 24 last week," one X user wondered, while another echoed, "According to her Instagram, she just celebrated a birthday and turned 24, not 28. Gross either way."
After Depp's 2016 divorce from Heard, he was romantically linked to his former lawyer, Joelle Rich, from September to November 2022. He was previously in a 14-year relationship with model Vanessa Paradis—during which they welcomed Lily-Rose and a son, Jack, 22—before they split in 2012.
