Johnny Depp appears to have pulled a "Wino Forever"...twice.

The 53-year-old actor recently debuted a new knuckle tattoo that reads "SCUM" in place of previous ink that read "SLIM." Many fans believe the latter was a reference for Amber Heard, who filed for divorce from Depp in May.

He has also had a bicep tattoo of a pin-up model resembling Heard, which he sported as recently as last month, blackened out. The actor, who has many tattoos, has not commented.

Heard, 30, is his second wife. He has dated several actresses over the years, including French performer Vanessa Paradis, with whom he has two children. More than 25 years ago, he was engaged for a while to his Edward Scissorhands co-star Winona Ryder.

During their time together, he had the words "Winona Forever" tattooed on his bicep. After they broke up in 1992, he had the ink changed to read "Wino Forever."

After Heard filed for divorce, she also obtained a temporary restraining order against Depp, alleging he committed domestic violence. Depp's lawyer said the actress "is attempting to secure a premature financial resolution by alleging abuse." Both cases are pending.

Ryder recently spoke about Depp's treatment of her while they were in a relationship.

"He was never, never that way towards me. Never abusive at all towards me," she told TIME. "I only know him as a really good, loving, caring guy who is very, very protective of the people that he loves. It's hard because I feel like. That's my experience. And it's been a very long time."

Meanwhile, Depp is concentrating on his side music career. He recently returned to the stage with his, Alice Cooper and Joe Perry's supergroup, the Hollywood Vampires. The band performed in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania Friday night to begin a U.S. tour after a short hiatus, which had followed shows in Europe.

Depp had also visited a famous Los Angeles comedy club last weekend, where he surprised the audience with an onstage appearance.
