Johnny Depp Makes Major Life Move: DETAILS

Johnny Depp moves to countryside.

It’s a fresh start for Johnny Depp, and he’s keeping things simple. Depp has officially put down roots in the UK, purchasing a large home in the Sussex countryside near the Kent border, according to the Daily Mail. Known for his bohemian style, the Hollywood star has surprised many by embracing a more grounded lifestyle outside London. The report states that Depp was chauffeured from his new residence to the premiere of “Modigliani: Three Days On The Wing Of Madness” last week.

Two years ago, rumors circulated that the “Pirates of the Caribbean” star had moved to Somerset. However, in reality, he was living in a Soho townhouse that also served as his art studio and creative space.

As Daily Mail journalist Alison Boshoff previously reported, several of Depp’s recent interviews were conducted during this chapter of his life in the Soho area. However, for the sake of “peace, privacy, and security,” Depp has now relocated to the countryside — a move that mirrors the lifestyle of his late best friend, legendary guitarist Jeff Beck.


Depp’s Deep Connection to Sussex Through Jeff Beck

Depp spent a significant amount of time with Jeff Beck at the rock icon’s 16th-century farmhouse in Wadhurst during the COVID-19 pandemic. Talking to a local British magazine, the actor reportedly called it “very beautiful and wet” — a nod to the lush, rainy English landscape.

The two artists first met in 2016 and began collaborating on music in 2019. In 2022, they released a full-length album, “18,” and embarked on a tour together that same year.

In an interview with Hollywood Authentic, Depp spoke candidly about his bond with Jeff Beck and his wife, Sandra. “There’s a couple who very much helped to keep me alive and sane and happy through the weirdness. And that’s Jeff and Sandra [Beck’s wife],” he said.

People reported that Beck died of bacterial meningitis in January 2023, and Depp was reportedly at his bedside. He and Sandra gave Beck a “green burial” on the grounds of the Sussex home — a loss that deeply impacted Depp.


From French Villas to Rural England: Depp’s Global Properties

Depp has long been a globetrotter when it comes to real estate. He owns a sprawling estate in the south of France, where he and his ex-partner, Vanessa Paradis, raised their children, Lily-Rose and Jack.

He also owns a private Caribbean island, Little Hall’s Pond Cay, where he famously wed Amber Heard in 2015 — a marriage that ended in legal turmoil just two years later. Many of his team members, including Stephen Deuters, CEO of his UK production company, are based there.

As per the Daily Mail UK print edition, locals have spotted Depp enjoying the area, including at The Middle House pub in Mayfield. He also paid a visit to the Folly Wildlife Rescue center in Kent — an organization Jeff Beck once supported. In 2022, The Daily Mail posted photos of Depp holding a baby badger named Freddie Mercury.

Though a quiet country life may seem unexpected for Depp, it’s not out of character. Depp may be leaning into a softer, more grounded chapter of life.
