Johnny Depp: I live for my kids

Actor says he finally found a reason to exist

Johnny Depp says he would give up everything for his kids.

The Hollywood star, 43, admits he simply can't bear being away from his family - long-term love Vanessa Paradis, 35, and their two kids Lily-Rose, eight, and five-year-old Jack.

'My family is my sanctuary,' he says. 'I live for them now. I finally found a reason to exist in this world.

'There is nothing like it. I would give everything away if I could only keep my family.'

While filming Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End, which hits cinemas this summer, Johnny had to spend four weeks away from his kids.

'It drove me mad,' he admits. 'I just can't do it. One shouldn't have to be apart from your family.'
