Amber Heard Confuses Trying To Explain Johnny Depp Charity Donation
Want to play word games? Invite Amber Heard as your game play partner. Because based on what Heard has stated, restated, and then taken back, the game will get so complicated that it might never end! One of the Aquaman actress’ most recent negative publicity snafus resulted from her supposed donation to charity.
It got confusing prior to Amber’s trial against Johnny Depp. And then it got even more bewildering during the testimony. But now, even accomplished Today show interviewer Savannah Guthrie couldn’t untangle the charity donation mess. However, Heard did achieve one point. She emphasized that she feels she did not need to donate to charity, noted Newsweek.
Guthrie sought to question Heard about the $7 million divorce settlement donation. But Amber tried to explain her view that she “shouldn’t have had to have donated.” The questions followed the trial’s revelation that Amber had pledged but not donated the complete settlement to charity.

Amber Heard Asked About Getting ‘Caught In A Lie’
However, the contradictions between what Heard stated prior to the trial and during the trial resulted in Guthrie posing a key question to Amber. And the Today show co-host kept it simple. “Do you think to the jurors sitting there that was you getting caught in a lie?” asked Guthrie.
Johnny’s superstar attorney, Camille Vasquez, had sought to get Heard to answer that question during the cross-examination section. “So as of today, you have not donated—paid—$7 million of your divorce settlement to charity, right?” asked Camille. And Heard admitted, “I have not been able to fulfill those obligations yet.”
Amber’s confession follows the former spouses’ $7 million divorce settlement in August 2016. In the wake of that settlement, the actress had publicized her decision to divide the sum between the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. And two years later, Heard had stated on a TV show that she donated the full sum.
Amber Heard Complains About Getting Painted As A ‘Liar’

Fast forward to 2022, and now Amber has decided to redefine her terms. “You had promised to donate $7 million of your divorce settlement to charity,” pointed out Guthrie. “It was revealed at trial that you haven’t done so yet.”
And the interviewer pointed out the difference between the movie star’s statements. “However, they played a tape where you state on air that you have donated it. You say donated you know that everybody thinks you’d donated—not that you’ve pledged it.”
However, in response to Guthrie pushing the question about pledging versus donation, Amber changed the focus of the interview. “I feel like so much of the trial was meant to cast aspersions on who I am as a person, on my credibility, to call me a liar in every way you can,” she complained. And she added, “If you pull back and you think about it, I shouldn’t have had to have donated it in an attempt to be believed.”
But after Heard stated that she did donate the money, she found herself down a rabbit hole with no escape. And Guthrie pointed out that problem. “Once you said you did…” she started to say. Amber tried to clarify. “I shouldn’t have had to earmark the entirety of it.” However, the interviewer noted, “You shouldn’t have but once you said you did…” And Heard then added, “That was where it was intended to go.”
Tell us what you think. Do you feel that Amber Heard should have admitted that she pledged but failed to donate the entire divorce settlement? Or do you agree with her that the words pledge and donation seem like synonyms? And after you share your views, check back on our site for more celebrity news.

She said it under oath in court too. Perjury!
She lied to begin with, lied again under oath, and tried to justify her lie by claiming that she never should have agreed to the donations to begin with. In other words, she’s a liar! And I doubt that’s the only thing she’s been lying about.
Amber is a liar and needs help
I think she’s a liar and never intended to donate the money to the charities. She’s just a gold digger after his money so she pretended that she did not want his money so she could actually get her hands on it and keep it. She’s a disgusting human being. I would not watch a movie she would be in even if they pay me to watch it.
The 2018 talk show video clip words from Ms Heard were ‘I gave it away’, ‘I donated it’, ‘it’s gone’. She never was under a requirement or even expectation to give it away UNTIL she was the one to proclaim she was donating it all. Had she not made the claims that she was going to, other than the occasional gold digger comments, no one would have said anything.
She said she was going to donate it but she didn't. She said she did donate it but she didn't. Whether she should have had to or not isn't in question. Saying you would AND did, but didn't makes you a pathetic liar! Nothing more to prove. You lied. You are a liar.
Someone else making the donation with their money (Musk) also is not you donating. Heard isn't totally stupid, she's just pathetically incapable of the truth.
Once you committed your promise to donation charity to ACLC and Children's. That's a guarantee then your name will always be with them. At first she said I donated half million dollars, then she hasn't made her guarantee then again she thinks she didn't have to donation. What a liar! Regardless she paid part of it. That's not a promises. Does she knows the difference between lies and truth. Johnny Depp FO NOT owes them. Amber failed. Sad! Her actions are worthless. Once you committed your promise, stay with them and support. She needs a new brain.
She clearly lied. Just like in the TV interview after the divorce when she said "I donated the entire 7mil., 3.5mil went to…& 3.5 mil went 2 … (past tense all 3 times) like the $$ was already gone. And then she added "I wanted nothing", when JD's accountant stated she wanted 3 penthouses, fully paid for including all the utilities, maintenance, taxes, etc., a Range Rover and $50,000 spousal support for the rest of her life as well as a cash settlement. And then she had the nerve to use that interview to prove she wasn't a gold digger. I hope they both appeal & JD's judgement gets squashed & hers gets increased.
She's a typical Cluster B personality psycho-snake.
