Johnny DeppIt looks like Johnny Depp’s long-term partner Vanessa Paradis will be finding something expensive and sparkly under the Christmas tree next week.

According to OK magazine, the Pirates of the Caribbean star had a high-end jewellery store in Los Angeles closed to the public last week so he could privately shop for a ring - possibly an engagement ring - for the former French singer.

A source told the magazine: “This was Johnny’s third or fourth visit to the store.

“He looked at an assortment of classic solitaire diamond rings in platinum settings - a really beautiful selection of elegant and understated rings.”

The source added he made a “very large purchase” before leaving.

Johnny and Vanessa started dating in 1998 and have two children together, nine year old Lily Rose and five year old Jack.
