This appears to be Depp’s first significant relationship since his divorce from Heard. He had a brief encounter with Joelle Rich, a lawyer, but after they split in November 2022, Depp’s romantic life has been private and enigmatic.
The pair were first seen together in 2021.
Yulia Vlasova, a model and beautician, met Depp in August 2021 during the 55th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Recently, the two were seen together at the London Heliport, sparking interest in their relationship. Vlasova further fueled the speculation by posting photos from a private jet and hinting at a possible engagement with a ring emoji on her Instagram Story.
However, insiders have confirmed that they are not engaged. While fans are pleased to see Johnny in a new relationship, some are uncertain about the 33-year age difference between the two and the fact that Depp’s daughter, Lily-Ros, is closer in age to Yulia.
Depp and Vlasova are maintaining a “casual” relationship. Although they spend time together occasionally, they have not defined themselves as “boyfriend and girlfriend.” According to the source, “He’s focused on moving forward and staying busy.”
