Johnny Depp's daughter in hospital · 2007-03-09 11:29
Johnny Depp’s 7-year-old daughter, who has reportedly been receiving treatment in a British hospital, is “much better,” the star’s publicist said Thursday.
Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper reported that Lily-Rose, daughter of Depp and French singer Vanessa Paradis, was admitted to a hospital nine days ago and was in a serious condition.
The newspaper said Thursday it knew the location of the hospital and the nature of the child’s ailment, but wasn’t revealing details to preserve the family’s privacy.
“We are happy to report that their daughter is doing much better,” said Depp’s publicist, Robin Baum. “The family greatly appreciates the continued support and respect of their privacy.”
E!online web site quoted In Touch magazine as saying that Lily-Rose was being treated for blood poisoning contracted by stepping on a rusty nail.
Depp, 43, and his partner, Vanessa Paradis, 34, live in France and also have a son Jack, 4.
The family is in London for Depp’s next film “Sweeney Todd”, the director Tim Burton’s musical about the legendary “demon barber of Fleet Street.”
