Depp, 59, is close friends with pub regular and illustrator Ralph Steadman, who is said to have tipped him off about the sale of The Chequers Inn, in Smarden, near Ashford, Kent.

A source said: “Depp adores the pub and has done for years.

“Johnny loves the history and has spoken before about wanting to buy a pub.

“It’s right in the heart of the English countryside.

“It’s right up his street.”

But a local said the pub had recently lost custom as its menu had become too “posh” and “dear”.

One customer told The Sun on Sunday: “It’s not what village folk want.

“And it’s got so dear in there now.

“They’ve just got a new menu out which is a really top-notch posh menu – the likes of carrots done in charcoal, etcetera.

“They’ve hired a new chef and he brought his whole team with him.”

At the age of 60, Johnny Depp has turned a new page in his life as his old scandals have come to an end. The actor has lost weight, cut his hair, taken care of his appearance and lived a healthier life.

Johnny Depp’s unique and handsome look

Johnny Depp is currently promoting the film Jeanne Du Barry . Depp will turn 61 this June. At the age of 60, the actor surprised everyone with his transformation in appearance and style.

Previously, Depp pursued a “dusty” bohemian style. But at the premiere of the film Jeanne Du Barry held in London, England, this Monday, Depp showed a completely different style. First of all, Depp lost weight to be able to look good in a suit. Besides, Depp cut his hair neatly, giving up his long, messy hair and unkempt beard.

Currently, Depp lives in London, England. The actor wants to temporarily leave the hustle and bustle of Hollywood, America. The quiet life in London makes the actor feel that it is suitable for him at the present time. Depp also chooses a healthier lifestyle.

The actor has quickly returned to work since winning a lawsuit against his ex-wife – actress Amber Heard – in 2022. Previously, Heard accused Depp of abusing her when the two were still married.

Currently, Depp has returned to performing with the Hollywood Vampires, acting in films, and directing new films. The actor also paints to auction. Depp continues to be invited to be the face of Dior’s Sauvage perfume line. To meet the requirements of the job, Depp has “touched up” his image to appear more handsome in front of the media and the public.

Johnny Depp’s Unusual Quiet Lifestyle

In his life, Johnny Depp has gone through 2 failed marriages and 4 long-term relationships that all ended in separation. Previously, Depp was also known as a “notorious playboy” in Hollywood, the actor used to party all night, abuse alcohol and use stimulants.

Ultimately, Depp’s life and career were turned upside down when the actor was accused of domestic abuse by actress Amber Heard. It can be said that Depp is a Hollywood star with a life full of ups and downs and storms. Depp has gone through many low points in his life, but up to this point, the actor is still trying to rebuild his career and create a more balanced life for himself.

When appearing at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival (France), Johnny Depp frankly answered a reporter’s question about whether the actor felt he was still being boycotted by Hollywood.

Depp said: “I don’t have to think about it. For me, everything that happened is just a joke. Do I still feel ostracized now? No, I don’t feel that way at all, because I don’t bother thinking about Hollywood anymore. I don’t need Hollywood anymore.”

In an interview at the Cannes Film Festival, Depp shared quite deeply about himself after stepping out of the litigation with his ex-wife: “I’m still trying to understand the word “reappearance” that you often use to talk about me. I’ve always been here, I never left.

Using the word “comeback” to me now is like coming out of hiding, I will try my best to dance and hope you will support me. What you have read about me and my life over the years, most of that information is very strange and completely imaginary.”

Since stepping out of litigation and focusing on rebuilding his career after a period of crisis due to scandal, Depp has been quite quiet. The actor is involved in many new plans and projects, but is very cautious in appearing in the media. Depp only appeared at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival and is currently participating in some promotional activities for the film Jeanne Du Barry.

Winning the lawsuit with his ex-wife did not make Depp excited to appear again in the media and public.

When asked in court what he felt he had lost after Amber Heard’s allegations, the actor said: When the allegations came out that I was a drunk, a drug addict and a woman beater, that was the end of me. This happened when I was over 50. I felt like my life was over.

Regardless of the outcome of this case, I know for certain that these charges will follow me for the rest of my life. This has attracted so much attention. I feel like I have lost everything because this is not a temporary burden, I will have to live with this burden for the rest of my life, because of the charges that have been made.”

Johnny Depp used drugs at age 11, had sex at age 13

One reason why Depp was once a notorious Hollywood playboy was because of his troubled childhood. As a child, Johnny Depp had to endure the unbelievably cruel treatment of his biological mother, Betty Sue Palmer. Betty was mentally unstable and prone to fits of rage.

As a child, Depp witnessed his mother yelling, throwing things, and even acting violently and uncontrollably towards her own husband and children. In the face of such instability, his father always tried to maintain everything as smoothly as possible.

Johnny Depp once said: “When I was a child, there was no safety in our house, the only way to avoid getting into big trouble was to try to stay away from the rage whenever it broke out. Our mother was very unpredictable, there were times when she was surprisingly cruel to her own children. Indeed, I had an unusual childhood.”

Johnny Depp’s mother has been married four times. His father, John Christopher Depp, was her second husband. John was a civil engineer, and Betty was a waitress. Johnny Depp’s father is now 87 years old, and Depp’s mother has been dead for many years.

What Johnny Depp remembers most about his father is that he never acted violently or responded with rude, insulting words to his wife. The father always tried to stay calm in all situations and maintained a good relationship with his children.

It was not until 1978, when Depp was 15, that John decided to end this unstable marriage. One morning when he was getting ready for work, he took all his belongings with him. Betty was devastated after this incident. Depp went to his father’s workplace and received the answer: “I can’t stand it anymore, I can’t live like this anymore, you guys are all grown up now.”

After her father left the family, Johnny Depp’s mother had suicidal thoughts, but luckily, she was discovered in time by Johnny Depp and taken to the emergency room.

Depp said that because of his troubled childhood, he started using illegal substances at the age of 11 and had sex at the age of 13. At the age of 16, Depp dropped out of school and began pursuing a singing career. Depp’s life during this period was very difficult and struggling. At the age of 20, Depp tried his hand at acting and quickly became famous.

Johnny Depp’s feelings about his biological mother have been shared by the actor in previous interviews. They are very conflicting emotions, Johnny Depp finds his mother terrible but also likes her sense of humor. In 2016, Betty Sue passed away from cancer at the age of 81.
