“He gave in to his daughter’s pleas.” Actor Johnny Depp’s Hamlet was put up for sale several times before being taken off the market for good. In their book “Amber Heard – Johnny Depp: love, dollars and betrayal”, which is to be published on August 24 but of which Gala publishes some excerpts exclusively, the authors Corinne Calmet and Hervé Tropéa explain the choice of the actor. He would have succumbed to the demands of his daughter Lily-Rose Depp, whom he had from his union with Vanessa Paradis.
The 24-year-old young woman managed to convince her father to keep this hamlet of 1,000 square meters of living space and 15 hectares of land. Located in Plan-de-la-Tour, the Var area is 25 kilometers from Saint-Tropez. According to the Mirror, it had already been put on sale in 2015 and 2016 at a price of 23 million euros, before being withdrawn from the market for the first time. In 2021, Johnny Depp once again wanted to get rid of it, this time for 51 million euros.
