Two years after his highly publicized, messy split and subsequent defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard, Johnny Depp is back in his element with a stunning new blonde in his life. 

The 61-year-old Hollywood star was photographed leaving London Heliport on Thursday, appearing cozy with Russian beautician Yulia, whom he was previously seen with at a Jeff Beck concert in Prague in 2022.

Depp has been mostly based in the UK since his infamous 2022 legal battle, keeping busy with new film projects and touring with his band. 

He looked cool and grungy in a red beanie, baggy jeans, sneakers, and sunglasses and holding his six-string to perhaps serenade his potential new love. 

Meanwhile, Yulia, thought to own a Czech beauty salon, matched his vibe in all-black, casual yet chic attire, flaunting her midriff with a handbag and rectangle sunglasses.  

She appeared charmed by the actor-musician, smiling and stroking her hair as the two laughed and talked on the tarmac. 

The film star is reported to be in a good place following a dark period of legal troubles and allegations that culminated into a high-profile defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard, who had accused him of abuse, in Virginia in 2022. 

He has managed to rehabilitate his image and move forward with his career, landing new film roles and going on tour with his band since then.

In fact, Depp was seen getting mobbed by fans while leaving a music venue in London with his entourage earlier this week.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star, who turned 61 last month, even kissed the hands of a superfan waiting for him outside a venue in the capital this week.

Johnny’s bodyguard stepped in when a woman refused to let go of him. 

But the megastar, who is living in London to paint, told his protection to step back before kissing her hand, causing squeals in the crowd, who had pictures, artwork and even limbs signed by the American.

‘Johnny Depp’s very public rehabilitation is going strong – while Amber has vanished and is living in Madrid’, one senior figure with links to London and Hollywood told DailyMail.com this week.

His London appearance was hours after Paul Barresi, the private eye hired by Amber Heard when she split from Johnny to find dirt on him, released a new book where he claims his investigation found Depp to be too generous with a ‘respect and adoration for women’.

And it came as the Depp v. Heard Channel 4 documentary began trending on Netflix Netflix, reflecting the continuing fascination with the couple’s relationship as well as their divorce and legal battles in the UK and US.

It has been quite the turnaround for Depp – four years after he lost a libel case in the UK against the publisher of The Sun over a story that described him as a ‘wife beater’. 

He did then sue Amber in the US for libel over similar allegations – and won $15million in damages. 

The former couple have gone in different directions.

Amber is understood to have quit Hollywood and settled in the Spanish capital with her three-year-old daughter – born thanks to a surrogate.

Her ex-husband, however, now has four careers. 

Currently he is renting an art studio in London’s West End to create new art – having not painted seriously for years.

He is in the middle of a three-year $20million contract as the face of Dior’s Sauvage men’s perfume. 

He is also a gigging guitarist, appearing on stages around the world including at the Royal Albert Hall with friends including Rod Stewart and Eric Clapton.

And his acting is back up and running. He was the star of last year’s Cannes Film Festival because of his role in the French-language biopic Jeanne du Barry, where he  played King Louis XV.

He is also directing his first movie in 25 years. Depp is working with Al Pacino on a biopic of Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani.

Screenwriter and producer of the swashbuckling franchise Pirates of the Caribbean, Terry Rossio, has told DailyMail.com that now that Depp has cleaned up his act he would be welcomed back as Jack Sparrow with open arms.

Previously Depp said he would never work for Disney again as sources said he felt harshly treated by them. It will remain to be seen if his stance has softened. 

While he could not escape the shocking court cases involving Amber Heard untarnished, his fans have remained loyal to him – as proved by the scenes in London this week.
