Lily-Rose appeared to be a supporter of Heard and her father's relationship, as in 2014, she wrote a letter to Depp praising her stepmother's positive influence. "You've been a better dad to Jack and I since she has been around and she was helping with the alcohol problem," Lily-Rose wrote, as reported by the Daily Beast. "I just see what a positive effect she's had on you and I'm afraid those things will leave with her. Please don't write her off now. She may surprise you and explain herself."
In court, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" actor spoke about his and Heard's wedding in 2015 — which his model daughter did not attend. He refuted claims that Lily-Rose and Heard were close. "My daughter Lily-Rose did not come to the wedding," Depp testified, per People. "She and Ms. Heard were not on particularly great terms, for several reasons."
Lily-Rose has spoken candidly about navigating the spotlight, especially in light of the inflammatory trial. While she shares that her parents wanted to give her a relatively normal upbringing, she has admitted that fame has been "a weird thing to navigate" (via Elle).
