Depp could be forced to sell homes to pay $5million loan

Johnny Depp could lose five of his homes as his former business managers attempt to have the actor repay a massive loan. 

The Management Group filed on Monday to force a sale of Depp’s properties – all of which are in Los Angeles – in order to cover the $5million loan TMG says it gave the actor, 54, in December 2012. 

‘Depp paid interest and some principal payments under the TMG/Depp Note until he terminated TMG as his business manager on March 14, 2016,’ the Los Angeles state court filing said, according to Deadline Hollywood.

It continues: ‘After that date, Depp and his new business manager, (Edward) White, have refused to pay any interest or principal on the loan.

‘However, in Depp’s self-centered world, “no good deed goes unpunished”.’ 

TMG claims that Depp still owes $4.4million on the loan, including fees and interest.

In 1995, Depp purchased this 1920s-era eight-bedroom castle-like home in West Hollywood on a four-acre eucalyptus grove. 

The Pirates of the Caribbean also has four other houses nearby as well as a recording studio that was built next to the castle-like mansion.

Depp’s feud with TMG began in January, when he sued the company for $25million, claiming it mismanaged his earnings during a lucrative period of his career, made unauthorized loans and overpaid for security and other services.

The suit also asked for a temporary restraining order and permanent injunction enjoining the company from proceeding with the foreclosure on Depp’s homes.

In a countersuit, TMG sought more $560,000 in unpaid commissions and credit card fees and to halt Depp’s January $25million suit.

According to the countersuit, the Murder on the Orient Express actor allegedly spent $75million on 14 homes world-wide and $30,000 permonth on wine.

Additionally, Depp allegedly once paid $3million to ‘blast from a specially made cannon the ashes of author Hunter S. Thompson over Aspen, Colorado’.
