Kate Moss' net worth and how her earnings were damaged by cocaine scandal

Kate Moss is expected to testify in the Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard defamation trial.

Heard alluded to a rumour Depp pushed the world-famous supermodel down the stairs when the pair dated during the 1990s, and Depp’s team now have a chance to dispute this claim.

After getting together, press coverage of actor Depp and Kate’s rise to fame as a model gave way to them being dubbed a Hollywood power couple.

Kate’s own career made her a symbol of the 1990s and the size zero fashion that came with it. It led her to huge deals with major brands and a soaring net worth of millions.

However, her stardom and fame meant she was punished financially when news of her cocaine habit was broken by the Mirror

Still known all around the world, the woman once dubbed “Cocaine Kate” is now under the spotlight thanks to the Depp vs Heard trial and her upcoming testimony.

Kate Moss’ net worth is now reported to be around £55million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

The fashion icon was born in 1974 in Croydon and began her modelling career at the age of just 14, before being catapulted to fame as a “waifish” underwear model with Calvin Klein at just 18.

She checked into rehab in 1998 when she confessed to having never walked down a catwalk when sober.

Kate said: “You kind of just have champagne … before the shows. Always. Even at 10 in the morning.”

Her sky-high career briefly hit some turbulence when she was splashed onto the front pages of the Daily Mirror in 2005, while dating rocker Pete Doherty.

Kate’s cocaine drug habit was revealed for all to see on the front pages and the then 31-year-old lost contracts with the likes of H&M, Burberry and Chanel. The loss is believed to have cost her over £3mil at the time.

But the bad-girl model known for her parties and extravagant social life was soon back in the swing of things, scoring deals with Virgin Mobile, Topshop and Burberry.

When did Johnny Depp and Kate Moss date?

Kate Moss and Johnny Depp dated from 1994 after first meeting in New York City, and were together on and off until finally calling it quits in 1998.

They were introduced at the famous New York restaurant Café Tabac by columnist George Wayne.

George said: “So when [Moss] walked into Tabac that night I took her hand and immediately took her to Johnny’s table in the middle of the restaurant… ‘Johnny this is Kate – Kate meet Johnny’.”

After meeting, the two were often seen together at high-profile events and even holidayed with Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher in 1996.

A friend of Depp told People in 1994 that “they can’t keep their hands, lips, mouths, legs off of each other”.

Their relationship did hit sticking points and Depp was infamously arrested in September 1994 for damaging a hotel room in New York. Kate was in the room at the time but was unharmed.

Moss said that after the two broke up she “really lost that gauge of somebody I could trust”, while Depp later admitted: “I’m the one who has to take responsibility for what happened.”

He added: “I was difficult to get on with, I let my work get in the way and I didn’t give her the attention I should have done.”
