Winona Forever. Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder
The first time Johnny and Winona Ryder clapped eyes on each other they knew it was love at first sight. He knew he was looking at the girl of his dreams. Her stunning natural beauty just hit him. Everything about her was perfect. Johnny was simply ecstatic. `When I met Winona and we fell in love, it was absolutely like nothing before. We hung out the whole day… and night, and we’ve been hanging out ever since. I love her more than anything in the whole world.’

‘I never really had a boyfriend before,’ Winona admitted later. Five months after they met, Johnny gave Winona an engagement ring, and a month later, the couple were living together, even if it was in a succession of hotels and rented apartments.

It was a relationship made in tabloid heaven. Winona was young, sweet, charming, a child. Johnny, on the other hand, was a hell-raising party monster. Well, according to the press he was.

‘There’s been nothing throughout my 27 years that has been comparable to the feeling I have with Winona. There’s something inside me that knows really well, that no one else has ever known, or will ever know. Life is trial and error, but when you find the one who’s really it, there’s no mistaking it.’ That, he explained, was why he was going to get Winona’s name tattooed on his arm for $75.

Johnny himself had no doubts. `I love Winona. I’m going to love her forever. Putting her on my arm solidified it. The truth is very powerful, believe me this is not something I took lightly.
