From Kentucky to Hollywood: Inside Johnny Depp’s difficult childhood and rise to stardom in his own words
Johnny Depp’s life as an A-list Hollywood actor appeared to be a far comparison from that of the life he grew up witnessing while living with his family as a kid. As it turns out, despite acting for a living and becoming a main draw at the box office, once the cameras stopped rolling on set, Depp’s own life at home would have all the makings of a true drama, according to his words. The former "Pirates of the Caribbean" star testified during a hearing at the Fairfax County Circuit Court in Fairfax, Virginia on Tuesday to the idea that he initially made the decision to sue his ex-wife, Amber Heard, 35, for libel after she made scathing allegations against him that he had been physically abusive toward her during their time together.
