Yesterday, I covered the photos from Monday night of Vanessa Paradis at the Paris premiere of her latest film, Café de Flora . I thought she looked beautiful – prettier than she had looked in a while. I also thought I might have detected some sadness in her eyes, but I could have just been projecting. These are some new photos of Vanessa at the Chanel show on Tuesday – once again, I think she looks great. So what’s up with all of the Johnny Depp-split rumors? Vanessa didn’t confirm or deny the split on the red carpet for Café de Flora, but she did get cryptic during a radio interview yesterday. When asked about the split rumors, Vanessa said: “You know, when I eat three peas, I’m pregnant. When I visit a city, I’m buying a house. In the winter I separate, in the summer I marry. It’s been fifteen years since I’ve been getting married every year. In addition I have to answer all these rumours!” [Via The Mail ] Apparently, she also said that she doesn’t believe in marriage or soul mates because “If you lose your soulmate everything is done for. Cafe De Flore speaks of love, its joys, its pains and its dramas – to love and to lose. This story upset me, I was upside-down, in the depths of myself. The idea of a soulmate is beautiful and very romantic to talk about it in a movie or a song, but in reality, I find it scary.” Damn, Vanessa is playing this close to the vest, isn’t she? I don’t know what to think – my guess is that they really are over, but it’s relatively amicable, and neither one of them has an axe to grind. That could just be wishful thinking, though. UPDATE: People Mag has a different version of Vanessa’s comments, which… are still odd. She says the rumors are false though: “The press is going on about this separation with Johnny Depp … How do you handle these rumors?” asked Massenet [PEOPLE's French correspondent translated the interview]. “It depends which rumor,” Paradis replied. “Here, this is one which could hurt my family. After that … they say that we have 52 houses in France, we separate in winter, we get married every summer. Me, I’m in my 12th pregnancy.” “All this is, I don’t know, because the Queen of England didn’t lose her teeth this week and there’s nothing happening,” Paradis continues of the coverage of her relationship with Depp, 48. “And to finish the rumors off, they are false?” asked the program’s host, Michel Denisot. “Yes, they are false,” she replied. Which rumors she was referring to remains unclear (or perhaps lost in translation?) But multiple sources tell PEOPLE in this week’s cover story that Depp and Paradis’s relationship is all but officially over. [ From People ] So… still together then? I don’t even know.
