For Kate Moss, it was love at first sight when she met Johnny Depp.

"I knew from the first moment we talked that we were going to be together," she said in 1994, the same year she met the actor.

It wasn't long before things got serious between the two. "They can't keep their hands, lips, mouths, legs off of each other," a friend of the Pirates of the Caribbean star told PEOPLE in 1994.

The young couple dated from 1994 until they called it quits in 1997 after a few years together and a rumored engagement. Moss said in 2012 she cried for "years" after they broke up: "There's nobody that's ever really been able to take care of me. Johnny did for a bit. I believed what he said. Like if I said, 'What do I do?,' he'd tell me. And that's what I missed when I left. I really lost that gauge of somebody I could trust."

Depp and Moss' past relationship made headlines again in 2022 when Moss was called to take the stand during Depp's defamation trial with his former wife Amber Heard. After Heard referenced Moss while discussing an alleged altercation between Depp and her sister, Whitney, Moss stated under oath that Depp did not harm her during their relationship. Moss testified via live video that she fell down a flight of stairs while in a hotel but was not pushed by her then-boyfriend.
