Johnny Depp Is
Now Reportedly
Suing Amber Heard
for Defamation
Description:
In December, Amber Heard wrote a harrowing op-ed for the Washington Post, in which she recounted, in great detail, the alleged domestic abuse she frequently had to endure from her ex-husband Johnny Depp. Months later, Depp has now reportedly filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against Heard in response to the piece. Per Variety, the suit claims Heard “is not a victim of domestic abuse, she is a perpetrator,” and that her allegations were nothing more than an “elaborate hoax to generate positive publicity” for her career. Depp’s attorneys also claim Heard had a romantic relationship with Tesla founder Elon Musk throughout the course of their marriage. “This frivolous action is just the latest of Johnny Depp’s repeated efforts to silence Amber Heard,” Heard’s attorney told Variety in a statement. “Mr. Depp’s actions prove he is unable to accept the truth of his ongoing abusive behavior. But while he appears hell-bent on achieving self destruction, we will prevail in defeating this groundless lawsuit.”
