He went on to praise Jack, saying, "He was a good employee, he left a few months ago but I expect him back later next year. Good staff are hard to find. I've been running this place for 15 years and it's very popular with the fashion and music crowd, but also film stars come here, and Jack's mum Vanessa Paradis and sister are regulars."
Chueke also praised Jack's sister Lily-Rose, adding, "Lily was mixing caipirinhas behind the bar and really getting into the swing of it, she was enjoying herself."

What did Jack Depp's mother Vanessa Paradis say about keeping her children away from spotlight?
Jack Depp’s mother Vanessa Paradis claimed that she always tried to keep her children out of the spotlight during the children’s early ages.
During her interview in 2007 with Weekend Knack (a Belgian magazine) Paradis said, “Now I indeed keep them away from the cameras because I don't want our children to be forced to share in our fame against their will.”
