Musk was originally listed as a potential witness for Heard in the pre-trial filings for the case in which Johnny Depp is suing Heard for $50 million, and Heard, countersuing Depp for $100 million. Heard and Depp are accusing each other of violence during their one year of marriage; each party denies the allegations.
Musk’s attorney Alex Spiro said on April 27 that the Tesla CEO will not be testifying in the trial.
Brief Look At Elon Musk And Amber Heard’s Dating Story
It was reported that Amber Heard and Elon Musk first met on set during Robert Rodriguez’s Machete Kills in 2013 where Heard was the lead actress in the film and Musk had a cameo appearance. The Hollywood Reporter initially reported that Musk became “infatuated” with Heard and began emailing Rodriguez and his team to set up dinners and lunches with her.
“If there is a party or event with Amber, I’d be interested in meeting her just out of curiosity,” Musk wrote in one of the emails, made available to THR through a confidential source. “Allegedly, she is a fan of George Orwell and Ayn Rand. Most unusual.”

After Heard’s divorce from Depp, 58, Heard’s relationship with Musk became romantic. The couple went Instagram official in April 2017, when Heard, 36, shared a pic of the two at an event showing Musk, 50, looking away from the camera with a lipstick mark on his cheek, while Heard posed for the camera.
Through the following months, the pair were spotted on several public outings, including a playdate in Australia with Musk’s children.
By the summer of 2017, the couple announced that they had broken up. “Although Amber and I did break up, we are still friends, remain close, and love one another,” Musk wrote on Instagram that August. “Long distance relationships when both partners have intense work obligations are always difficult, but who knows what the future holds.”
Hours later, Heard confirmed the split with her own Instagram post, “Being in the public eye means having to explain yourself to so many people, so much of the time. In this case, I’d like to remain more quiet. Although we have broken up, Elon and I care deeply for one another and remain close.”

In July 2017, Elon Musk revealed to Rolling Stone that he “was really in love” with Heard. “It hurt really bad,” he told the outlet in July 2017. “She broke up with me more than I broke up with her, I think.”
He continued, “I’ve been in severe emotional pain for the last few weeks. Severe. If I’m not in love, if I’m not with a long-term companion, I cannot be happy, I will never be happy without having someone.”
Musk became well-known during Depp‘s unsuccessful U.K. libel case against a tabloid when Depp accused Musk of having an affair with Heard while she was still married to him.
