Hollywood star Johnny Depp felt ‘tortured’ hearing his parents argue as a child, so much so he wished that they would break up. The Rum Diary actor’s mother and father Betty Sue Wells and John Christopher Depp Sr. divorced when he was 15. And Depp admits he was relieved when they eventually split because it was the best for him and his three siblings. The 48-year-old said: “I recall hearing my parents argue and thinking, ‘Come on, this is torture. Just split!’ They stuck it out until I was 15, but I’d seen it coming for years. When they finally did divorce, I thought, ‘OK, this is the right thing.’ “My mum got ill after my father left, so my attention was taken up in making sure she was OK. I didn’t have the time until later to mourn that loss of a sense of family, however unhappy.” Johnny also recalled the first time he met long-term partner Vanessa Paradis while he was shooting The Ninth Gate in 1998, and admits he immediately knew they’d be together. The Pirates Of The Caribbean added: “She was wearing a dress with an exposed back and I saw that back and that neck, and then she turned around and I saw those eyes, and – boom! “You have this feeling – I can’t really explain what it was, but I had it when I met her. I saw her across a room and thought: ‘What’s happening to me?’”
