Johnny Depp: Man makes shocking claim that he's the actor's unknown son, here's what we know

Johnny Depp has been under scrutiny for his very public trial with Amber Heard’sabuse allegations against him.

Amidst all his existing controversies, there seems to be anew one that has popped up. A man is claiming that he is allegedly Johnny Depp’s long-lost son. Yes, that's right. That means that Depp could have more children than Lily-Rose and Jack, who he had with his ex, Vanessa Paradis.

Johnny Depp’s alleged long-lost son

A man called James recently came forward via TikTok to establish his relationship with the Finding Neverland actor. As per YourTango, James has shared that his mother and Depp met in the Philippines in 1986, while the actor was shooting a movie there.

Turns out Depp was shooting Platoon at the time in the Philippines. He even shared a picture of Depp with his mother, and his own picture to show the resemblance he shares with Depp.

Evidence submitted by James

It seems like James has gone the extra mile in gathering evidence to make his his case. As per US Today, James said that ‘there’s a woman sitting behind him on set, and I think she’s my mother,’ after sharing the photo along with other images of a woman he claims is his mother. James also claims that his biological father is not mentioned on his birth certificate, and it says ‘unknown’ instead.

He has also admitted to the fact that his actual birth date remains a mystery, as his mother did not register his birth for a year afterward, for which she got reprimanded.

James’ DNA test

James said that his mother turned abusive towards him when they moved to America, which coincides with the time Depp was getting popular in Hollywood. James always felt like Depp was maybe his father. So he took a DNA test and noticed that he shares the same ancestry with the actor, as reported by Your Tango.

He supposedly inherited 16% Scottish, and 25% English with some Welsh, German, Irish, and other European countries from his dad’s side. These results are apparently strikingly similar to Johnny Depp’s own ancestry, according to Your Tango.
