Johnny Depp apparently wants to have a naked image of the Duchess of Cambridge in his home – if not his mind – so he bought a nude portrait of the pregnant Kate Middleton from street artist, Pegasus for a five figure sum!
He also requested the artist to create another nude painting of the Princess with a crown resting on her baby bump. He has titled the new painting, "Crowned" and will feature the brunette in nothing but a crown placed on her tommy.
The 51-year-old actor previously spent £25,000 buying a portrait of Queen Elizerbeth on his visit to the opening of Pegasus' art gallery in Islington, north London on Sunday December 7.
In a statement to Metro newspaper, Pegasus's manager, Leonard Villa said, 'I knew Johnny was coming and wanted the two Kate Middleton works. I didn’t even tell my wife and daughters, but I was expecting him. He was extremely charming and immediately bought the painting and put down an offer for the second one. Everything at the opening of Pegasus’ gallery sold within 15 minutes. He can’t fulfill his orders fast enough at the moment.'
Meanwhile, Kate – who has 16-month-old son, Prince Georgewith the second-in-line to the throne – is due to give birth to her second child in April 2015.
