Johnny Depp’s son, Jack Depp, has been making headlines for his low-key job and lifestyle, which he maintains away from the public spotlight. The 22-year-old was spotted working as a bartender in Paris. The restaurant’s owner, Edouard Chueque, praised Jack as a ‘great guy’ who was a ‘good employee’ but recently stepped down from his position.
Johnny Depp’s son’s ordinary Paris job
Johnny Depp’s son, Jack, lives a relatively low-key life, which is a stark contrast to his sister, who is an actress and has over 8 million followers on Instagram. According to the Daily Mail, the son of French actress and singer Vanessa Paradis was working at L’Areia, a fashionable Lebanese restaurant in the Bastille district of Paris.
Depp and Paradis were together for nearly 14 years and, despite never marrying, kept their children out of the spotlight. Reports from December 7 revealed that the 22-year-old had been quietly employed at L’Eria, where he worked in the restaurant’s downstairs kitchen after taking leave from his studies. Since then he has also taken leave from his part-time job.

Restaurant owner Edouard Chueque told the outlet, “Jack is a great guy. He stays out of the spotlight, but works behind the bar and in the kitchen.” He is expected to return late next year. Good employees are hard to find.”
According to the owner, the restaurant attracts a trendy crowd, with Vanessa Paradis and her daughter Lily-Rose Depp being regular visitors. The owner added, “Lily was behind the bar mixing caipirinhas and actually going into one of the swings and enjoying them.” Paradis preferred to raise her children privately in her hometown in France.
Inside Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis’ relationship
Depp and Paradis have remained on good terms since their split, with Paradis also coming to Depp’s support during his defamation lawsuit involving his ex-wife Amber Heard in 2020. The couple fell in love in 1998 while Depp was shooting The Ninth Gate in France, quickly expanding their family by welcoming their daughter Lily-Rose within a year. In 2002, they welcomed their son, John “Jack” Christopher. The couple decided to protect their children from the spotlight.
Speaking to Weekend Knack magazine at the time, Paradis said she would choose France over LA to raise her children. “Although Los Angeles is great too,” she continued. “We raise them bilingually anyway, so it doesn’t really matter to them. Only, in the south of France you can live more anonymously. And it is a joy, especially when the children are still young.

The Aquaman star welcomed her first child via surrogacy, and while details about her second pregnancy have not yet been made public, a spokesperson told People, “There’s still a long way to go in the pregnancy, so you Will appreciate that we don’t want to go into too much detail at this stage. Suffice it to say that Amber is happy for both herself and Oonagh Paige.
