Johnny Depp is 'no longer dating his lawyer as romance fizzles out'

Johnny Depp is reportedly 'no longer dating his lawyer' despite previous romance rumours.

The 59-year-old was first rumoured to be dating his UK lawyer Joelle Rich back in September but it's thought they have called it quits.

The actor is thought to have met the lawyer when she represented him in his 2020 libel trial against the Sun Newspaper.

Depp ended up losing the case, which took place before the legal battle against ex Amber Heard in America.

Joelle was seen at the actor’s defamation trial in the US, but was not part of his legal team and was instead there simply to support him.

A source told People Magazine that Johnny and Joelle are no longer seeing each other.

London based lawyer Joelle is a married mother of two but is understood to be separated from her husband for some time and is in the process of getting divorced.

The news comes as Johnny faced backlash when it was announced that he would be making a special appearance in Rihanna ’s Savage X Fenty fashion show.

He is set to be in the show's 'star' moments, becoming the first man to do so.

Past celebs who have taken this slot include supermodel Cindy Crawford and singer Erykah Badu.

The show is described as a 'fashion experience' and will see Cara Delevingne and Irina Shayk take to the runway.

Johnny, who has been an ambassador for Dior since 2015, has apparently already filmed his cameo, with a source telling TMZ it is 'cool and chic'.

The show is set to debut on Prime Video on November 9.

Olly Alexander slammed the decision as he announced he won’t be wearing Rihanna’s clothes again after Johnny Depp was reported to have a starring role in her upcoming show.

It’s A Sin star Olly posted a sad face in reaction to a Pop Crave tweet that read: "Depp will become the first man to have his own spotlight segment at Rihanna ’s Savage X Fenty fashion show."

Responding to Olly’s upset, a fan wrote: "But, Savage X Fenty is you baby... you wear it so well."

The Years & Years singer replied: "Thank you but after this news I won’t be wearing it anymore."

Olly has already worked with the brand as he modelled for Savage X Fenty in the past and was enlisted to take part in their Valentine’s campaign in February this year.
