Johnny Depp says his daughter Lily-Rose’s 2007 Hospitalization for Kidney Failure Was the Darkest Period of His Life.

Johnny Depp is finally speaking out about his daughter Lily-health Rose’s scare in 2007.

Following that experience, the visits became increasingly important, Johnny Depp explained.

During an appearance on the Graham Norton Show, the actor described how he used to visit the hospital dressed as Captain Jack Sparrow from the Pirates of the Caribbean film franchise to cheer up patients.

What happened to Johnny Depp daughter?

Lily-Rose Depp, Depp’s daughter, was hospitalized in 2007 after contracting an E. Coli infection that caused kidney failure. She was only seven years old at the time.

At the time, Depp and his then-girlfriend Vanessa Paradis, Lily-Rose’s mother, kept a constant vigil at their daughter’s bedside during her 9-day hospitalization.

Depp donated $2 million to the Great Ormond Street Hospital in 2008 after Lily-Rose was successfully treated for the illness, a gesture that got the internet buzzing.
