Johnny Depp 'casually' dating model Yulia Vlasova two years after trial with ex Amber Heard, claims source
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Johnny Depp, the 61-year-old star of 'Pirates of the Caribbean,' has found new love two years after his highly publicized defamation trial with ex-wife Amber Heard.
Depp is now dating 28-year-old Russian beautician and model Yulia Vlasova, sources close to the actor revealed to Daily Mail. The couple has been seen together on multiple occasions, including a recent sighting at the London Heliport.
Who is Johnny Depp's new girlfriend?
Insiders describe the relationship as "casual," with Depp and Vlasova spending time together intermittently since meeting in 2021. Their first encounter occurred at the 55th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in August 2021.
They were later seen together at a concert in Prague in July 2022, shortly after Depp's legal victory over Heard. Photos from the event show the two looking cozy, with Depp even planting a kiss on Vlasova's cheek.
Sources noted that the relationship is "not serious," with the pair only meeting "here and there" in recent years.
Vlasova, who owns a makeup and hairstyling studio in Prague, has hinted at the romance on her Instagram. Although she has not officially confirmed their relationship, she shared a photo earlier this year showing their hands resting on each other's legs.
In response to a follower's question about her favorite actor, she replied, "JD. He is a man who is incredibly talented and inspiring."
According to local Russian media, Vlasova also studied at Moscow's leading training academy for diplomats and spies.
Originally from Russia, she lived in Polevskoy, a drab industrial town with 69,000 residents, then Sortirovka, a rough suburb of Yekaterinburg, the country's third largest city.
Johnny Depp and Yulia Vlasova's relationship sparks internet reactions
Johnny Depp's new relationship with Russian model Yulia Vlasova has ignited a wave of reactions online. The announcement that the 61-year-old actor is dating the 28-year-old beautician has drawn both support and skepticism from fans. While some are happy to see Depp moving on, others have expressed concern over his choice.
One user commented, "He's a brilliant actor but obviously hasn't learned a thing. Furthermore saw some old video on his take on Trump, and must say, didn't like it a bit, since I don't condone violence."
Another echoed a similar sentiment, stating, "Some guys never learn. They want weird and they will then get weird & much, much more trouble than they bargained for. Has Johnny Depp forgotten what happened to Mel Gibson?"
Several users advised caution, reflecting on Depp's tumultuous past relationships. "They’ll never learn… at least don’t sign a legal contract this time," one user suggested.
Another user warned, "Not a good choice. This is going to backfire—just like Amber Heard did."
