Winona Ryder's Depp ban

31-07-2007 11:30

Winona Ryder was banned from marrying Johnny Depp by her father.

The actress - who met the heartthrob actor on the set of 1990 film 'Edward Scissorhands' and was engaged to him for around three years - has revealed her dad Michael Horowitz forbid the pair from tying the knot because she was only 17 at the time.

In a joint interview with Vogue magazine, Horowitz recalled: "They were the hottest couple in the US at that time, like Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are now. They were cool."

Ryder said: "But you stopped a wedding."

To which Horowitz replied: "We loved Johnny but you were 17."

Ryder, now 35, split from Depp in 1993.

During their relationship the 'Sweeney Todd' actor had a tattoo etched onto his arm which read "Winona Forever".
