Inside the private life of Jack Depp
Jack Depp looks exactly like his dad Johnny Depp.
The actor passed on some beautiful genes to his children, Lily-Rose Depp, 24, and his son, 21, who he shares with his ex-partner Vanessa Paradis.
Fans saw Jack’s strong resemblance to his father in a 2020 photo as he was pictured walking in the streets in the UK. However, it is not just the appearance the father-son duo shares in common.
In a 2017 interview, Depp said on Jimmy Kimmel Live that his son also is similar to him in the driving department.
The actor joked about why he would want to teach his then-teenage son how to drive,
“He has my instincts, my boy, and he’s crashed about five golf carts,”

When and where was Jack Depp born?

Paradis shared with Belgium’s Weekend Knack magazine in 2007 why she wanted to raise her kids near her hometown.
She said,
“For my children I secretly choose France. Even though Los Angeles is great too,”
“Only, in the south of France you can live much more anonymously. And that’s a bliss, especially when the children are still young.”
Depp got his name after his father and grandfather
Jack Depp’s full name is Jack Christopher Depp III. He shares the moniker with his grandfather and dad, who respectively go by the names John and Johnny.
He is the third generation to use the family name and is called Jack. Fans might have noticed that his nickname is also that of his dad’s famous character, Jack Sparrow, from Pirates of the Caribbean.
Johnny got a tattoo in honor of his son
Johnny showed his love for both his kids by getting their names tattooed.
The Hollywood star has an ink of a flying sparrow with his boy’s name written underneath it on his right forearm.
He also did a tattoo of Lily’s name on his chest which he proudly flaunted during a press conference during the Kustendorf Film and Music Festival in Serbia in 2010.
Jack is bilingual
Jack is of American nationality from his dad’s side and French nationality from his mom’s. He spent his life splitting time between the two nations and is fluent in the native language of both.
Lily shared with Interview magazine in 2013 that they always spoke French at home with their mommy.
She told the outlet,
”When my brother and I were at the same school, whenever we wanted to say something that was going to stay just between us, we could say it in French and nobody would understand,”
Jack Depp stays out of the spotlight
Despite having globally famous parents, Jack is still someone who prefers to stay out of the limelight. Unlike his famous sister, he does not have social media and does not get photographed frequently.
Johnny said in a 2014 interview that his son didn’t have an intention of pursuing an acting career.
Depp said,
“Aside from school plays and things, he hasn’t shown any desire to become an actor. Whew!,”
But Jack did a minor role alongside his big sister in her 2016 movie Yoga Hosers.
