  • Jersey has had it's fair share of celebs gracing its shores and really theres too many to mention that come over. The list of residents is pretty good aswell. Johnny Depp (thats right, mr.capt ack sparrow himself) is supposed to own one of the private islands that coast off Jersey. Nigel Mansel the famous driver lives on one of the bays. John Nettles (Bergerac) did live here for a time but the States refused to give him housing rights (which you have to earn by living here 15years) so he couldn't buy a house, so he moved after his tenancy was up. Graham Le Saux the chelsea footballer, Ian Woosnam the golfer and Narina Pallot the singer. And a few millionaires who aren't really worth mentioning.
