London, July 22 (ANI): Johnny Depp has flown to the South of France to try and patch up with his former partner Vanessa Paradis.

The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star gave the model an antique gold pendant bearing the message My heart is always with you.

The couple, who have two children Lily-Rose, 13, and Jack, nine, announced last month they had amicably separated after 14 years together.

Even though they never married, it was said the 39-year-old singer would receive around 100 million pounds from Depp, who is said to have a net worth of 200 million pounds.

It is said that Depp and 'Rum Diaries' co-star Amber Heard, 26, who were reported to have grown very close on set, called time on a fledging relationship.

Depp and Paradis are holed up at the actor's 4-million-pound home in Plan de La Tour.

They are having a family holiday to show the kids they are still a strong family even if those two are split or not, the Sun quoted a source as saying.

But the fact he presented her with such a touching gift, it's almost as if they could make another go of things. Johnny wants to be with his family, he's a very family orientated man. His kids mean everything to him.

What they need more than anything is to get together far away from Hollywood and that is what they are doing, the source added. (ANI)
