It’s no secret that fame takes a serious toll on relationships, and Johnny Depp may be hitting a rough patch with his longtime girlfriend Vanessa Paradis.

According to a report, the 48-year-old "Pirates of the Caribbean" star has been in a bad place as of late due to constant arguments with Paradis.

An insider claimed, “Johnny isn’t handling anything well right now. People around him are worried about how Johnny is doing because he and Vanessa seem so fractured right now. Their relationship is heading toward the end.”

"Johnny has started reaching out to lawyers, probably to quietly discuss how to get out of the relationship. They're not married but they've been together for years and have kids together so it isn't as easy as just breaking up."

Depp and Paradis started dating in 1998 and have two children together- Lily-Rose, 12, and Jack, 9.

Enjoying a much-deserved night off, Johnny Depp was spotted at the Iggy Pop and The Stooges gig in Los Angeles on December 1st.

The “Rum Diary" actor took his 12-year-old daughter Lily Rose and 9-year-old son Jack to the show, held at the Hollywood Palladium.

In a recent interview, “Hugo” producer Graham King said that they tried to get Johnny a cameo appearance in their newly-released flick.

“When I first got the manuscript of the book, I sent it to Johnny….And he read it and loved it, and I said let’s make this together. There’s a role that’s not in the movie now that was in the script that he was going to play, a very small role. But we just didn’t have the time to do it with the schedule.”
