DEPP'S NAME WOES OVER PARADIS
Posted 8:00pm 12/02/10
JOHNNY DEPP has no plans to marry his long-term partner VANESSA PARADIS - because he doesn't want to "ruin" her exotic surname.
The Pirates of the Caribbean actor has been dating the brunette beauty since 1998 and they share two children, daughter Lily-Rose and son Jack.
Depp admits he would make their union official if Paradis asked him to - but he's so fond of her last name, he'd hate for the couple to become Mr and Mrs Depp.
He tells Extra, "I never found myself needing that piece of paper. Marriage is really from soul to soul, heart to heart. You don't need somebody to say, okay, you're married.
"If Vanessa wanted to get hitched, why not? But the thing is, I'd be so scared of ruining her last name. She's got such a good last name." (PAW&ZN/WNVEX/MJ) *WENN
