Karl Lagerfeld has apparently set up Johnny Depp's ex, Vanessa Paradis, with musician Benjamin Biolay

Vanessa Paradis has apparently got over her split from Johnny Depp, thanks to a little match-making from Karl Lagerfeld.

The actress is reportedly dating musician Benjamin Biolay, who just happens to be an ex-boyfriend of France's former First Lady, Carla Bruni, after the two were introduced by Chanel designer Karl.

A source in Paris says Lagerfeld thought the pair's musical backgrounds and similar tastes would make them the perfect match: 'They’re the same age and have similar backgrounds in music, so Karl was keen for them to meet,’ the insider told the MailOnline.

‘They have even recorded a duet called Enjoy on Benjamin’s latest album. They plan to promote and tour the album together next spring.’

In June it was revealed that Vanessa had split from her partner of 14 years, Johnny Depp. They have two children together, Lily-Rose,13, and ten-year-old Jack.

Since the separation Depp has been romantically linked to his The Rum Diary co-star Amber Heard.
