Jack started working at L’Area two years ago, splitting his time between bartending and helping in the restaurant’s kitchen.
Edouard Chueke, the restaurant’s owner, spoke highly of the 22-year-old, calling him a dedicated employee who purposely kept a low profile while trying to be as good of a worker as possible, endearing himself to the establishment’s staff.
“Jack is a great guy. He keeps out of the limelight, but worked here behind the bar and in the kitchen,” Chueke explained. “He was a good employee; he left a few months ago, but I expect him back later next year. Good staff are hard to find.”

“For my children, I secretly choose France. Even though Los Angeles is great too,” she said in a 2007 interview with Belgium’sWeekend Knack. “Only in the south ofFrancecan you live much more anonymously. And that’s bliss, especially when the children are still young.”

Johnny Deppshares Jack and Lily-Rose with Paradis, who he was with for 14 years before they split in 2012.
The pair first crossed paths in 1998 at a hotel inPariswhile Depp was in the middle of filmingRoman Polanski’sThe Ninth Gate. At the time, the actor had just ended a high-profile relationship with supermodel Kate Moss.
Paradis, a French singer, actress, and model, quickly captured his attention, and the couple kept a relatively private relationship compared to Depp’s previousromances.

The couple received their first daughter, Lily-Rose, in 1999, and Jack followed three years later in 2002.
Their breakup was handled with great privacy and respect. That’s speculated to have been the natural result of the pair’s preference forLos Angelesand Paris, respectively, and the distance—both physical and emotional—that it created between them.

Despite being the son of a high-profile Hollywood star, his social media presence differs very little from that of a typical 20-year-old, with simple images of his friendships, pastimes, and weekend adventures.
However, a quick look at the comment section ofhis postsreveals how the short-lived Instagram account quickly became a magnet forunsolicited attention,as some users tried to exploit his connection to his famous family.

Despite his apparent preference for privacy, netizens commented, “Hi Jack, you don’t know me, but I need some help. I’ve been trying to reach your father forever. How can I get a hold of him?” Others made more bizarre requests, with one asking Jack for permission to “meet his sister.”
Netizens valued Jack’s decision to remain out of public discourse and urged outlets to respect his choice
“Leave him alone. We don’t need to know what he is doing. The poor kid wants to be normal,” one user said.
“I wish they would just leave him alone and let him live as he wants. He doesn’t want to be in the spotlight,” another stated.
“Ok? He’s just a guy living his life. Who cares who his dad is? He’s barely an adult. Why shove a camera in his face?” a reader argued.
Others respected the 22-year-old’s choice to earn money and work a “normal” job.
“It’s admirable! I like how simple he appears. Someone else in his place would be taking advantage of their dad’s fame,” a viewer stated.
“Good for him! He’s learning how to make his own money and be independent!”
“Way to go Jack!” Netizens congratulated Depp’s son for being down to earth and willing to work, despite his fortune
