Johnny Depp has sent “love” to the family of his Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides co-star Tamayo Perry, an Hawaiian actor who died following a shark attack.The American actor, 61, has played the conniving Captain Jack Sparrow in the pirate franchise since its first film in 2003.
Perry died in June, after surfing at Malaekahana Beach on the Hawaiian island of Oahu, and was survived by his wife, Emilia.
Depp posted an Instagram story, sharing a black and white photo of Perry with a surf board, on Sunday and wrote: “Even though it was some years ago now, I remember Tamayo well. “A lovely man, with a huge heart and zest for life… Emilia, I send you all my love and strength.
You are in my thoughts. With love, Johnny.” He also shared a link to his 28.6 million followers that went to a GoFundMe page, set up to raise funds for Emilia as she “navigates the future without Tamayo; her husband, best friend and provider”.The total raised has been 112,643 US dollars (£87,622), with a target set at 200,000 US dollars (£155,575).
