A report was published around a year ago claiming that Johnny Depp is trying to reignite his romance with Winona Ryder. Read on to know the complete story!

A magazine claimed a year ago that Depp always regarded Ryder as his true soul mate. The actor had been sending signals through their mutual pals to know whether she still wants to reunite with him or not. 

An unnamed insider even went to the extent of wishing that the Pirates of the Caribbean star would stay away from Ryder. The source further added that Winona Ryder is a gentle soul and does not need someone like Depp in her life as he can be a “troublemaker.”

However, the story seems to be fabricated as Ryder has been in a relationship with Scott Mackinlay Hahn, a fashion designer. Meanwhile, a source close to Depp said that it was a false report. Ryder and Depp have dated around 25 years ago and have no intention to revive their romance, Gossip Cop reports. 

Yet, Ryder’s name has been dragged in the past year concerning Depp. For the universe, the actress released a personal statement in favor of Johnny Depp amid his ongoing lawsuit with former wife Amber Heard, Cinema Blend reports.

Winona Ryder had categorically said that The Lone Ranger star has never been abusive or violent towards anyone in her presence. While there is no romance in this statement, it also goes on to prove that the two share an amicable relationship even now. 

Additionally, the actress recently has had a boost in her career, courtesy Stranger Things. She has, reportedly, not nurtured any romantic thoughts about her former boyfriend in decades now. Also, the magazine did not offer any solid evidence in support of their report. 

In other related news, it looks like the actor’s lawsuit against the UK based publication The Sun is done as of date. There would be no more courtroom sessions if reports are to be believed.

However, the case is yet to be over as the verdict has not been declared. It could take some more time before the issue gets officially sorted out. 

Both parties had presented their evidence about the former relationship between Heard and Depp. The defamation lawsuit was filed by the actor against The Sun publication when they referred to him as a “wife-beater” in one of their headlines. 

Amber Heard had earlier accused her former husband Johnny Depp of physically abusing her. However, though the actor has confessed to using drugs while he was married to her, he refused of being physically abusive towards his ex-wife.
