Johnny Depp: How 'terrific' Great Ormond Street saved my Lily-Rose

Johnny Depp has revealed his enormous gratitude to Great Ormond Street Hospital for saving his young daughter's life. Critically ill Lily-Rose was taken to the Central London children's hospital in March, reportedly suffering from kidney failure caused by E.coli food poisoning. Johnny and long-term girlfriend Vanessa Paradis kept a constant vigil at their daughter's bedside for nine days until the seven-year-old finally recovered. In an exclusive interview in The Mail on Sunday's Live magazine today, Johnny reveals: "It was the most frightening thing we have ever been through. It was hell for all of us. "But the magic is that she pulled through beautifully. She was amazing - a strong, strong kid. Great Ormond Street was terrific; such a great hospital." Celebs and Bubs
