Lily Rose Depp voices support for her father in the wake of alleged domestic abuse claims

Lily Rose Depp has spoken out in support of her father Johnny Depp in the wake of domestic abuse allegations reportedly made by his estranged wife Amber Heard.

The 17-year-old's comments come after her mother Vanessa Paradis wrote a letter defending her ex-partner. The model took to Instagram today to share the below childhood photo accompanied by the message:

"My dad is the sweetest, most loving person I know, he's been nothing but a wonderful father to my little brother and I, and everyone who knows him would say the same".

Amber and Johnny filed for divorce last week and on Friday, reports surfaced that Amber had gotten a restraining order against the actor after informing police of an alleged domestic violence incident.
