But amid that lawsuit, Heard just dropped a bombshell about her true feelings for Depp. And her shocker just might offer a clue to how messy the court battle could become. Get the latest Amber Heard and Johnny Depp news below.
Amber Heard – Takes Social Media Break Over Johnny Depp!
Social media can provide a powerful way for celebrities to send messages to their fans. But it also can turn into a dangerous platform, where stars slam others and then get slammed themselves. For instance, Kanye West recently got so hostile about estranged wife Kim Kardashian and her supporters that he got suspended from Instagram.
And Amber Heard seems to recognize the risks of social media. As a result, the actress plans to take a break as she preps for her court war with Johnny Depp, per Us magazine. “I’m going to go offline for the next several weeks. As you may know, I’ll be in Virginia, where I face my ex-husband Johnny Depp in court,” wrote the 35-year-old actress.
However, Heard also summed up her upcoming court war. “Johnny is suing me for an op-ed I wrote in the Washington Post, in which I recounted my experience of violence and domestic abuse,” explained Amber. That op-ed described her struggles with abuse, including what happened prior to marrying the 58-year-old actor.
In response to Heard’s essay, Johnny filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against his ex. And Depp felt that he needed to do so because of how she described their marriage. For instance, Amber painted herself as a “public figure representing domestic abuse.”
Amber Heard – Confesses Feelings For Johnny Depp
But amid the lawsuit, Amber Heard also made a shocking confession. “I have always maintained a love for Johnny,” admitted Amber. “And it brings me great pain to have to live out the details of our past life together in from of the world.” However, the actress also defended her essay.
For example, Heard pointed out that she never used Johnny Depp’s name in her op-ed. “I never named him, rather I wrote about the price women pay for speaking against men in power,” she wrote on social media. And she claimed to have suffered the consequences for her honesty.
“I continue to pay that price,” added Amber. “But hopefully, when this case concludes, I can move on and so can Johnny.” And the actress’ honesty touched her followers.
For instance, “Pose” actress Indya Moore cheered for Heard. “So vulnerable and so difficult to have to process personal things in public,” pointed out Moore. “May you both come to truth and harmony and compassion and love!”
