A post shared by Amber Heard (@amberheard) on Aug 26, 2020 at 7:04 pm PDT

Heard wrote that article with the intention of encouraging readers to denounce gender-based violence: “I realized that men have power — physical, social, and financial — and that many institutions support that situation.

I knew this long before I could say it out loud, and I'm sure you do too. "

She told how publicly speaking about an alleged toxic relationship with her ex-partner affected her career: “My friends and counselors told me that I would never work as an actress again, that they would put me on a blacklist.

I had a film already closed and they decided to hire another interpreter, and a brand, for which I had just signed a two-year campaign, decided to leave me ”.

Since Heard publicly damaged Depp's image, different Hollywood figures have defended the actor: Winona Ryder, Penelope Cruz, Benicio del Toro and Vanessa Paradis (mother of Depp's two children, Lily-Rose and John Christopher), among others.

Instead, the best-known person among the actress's defenders has been Elon Musk, technology mogul and founder of the automotive firm Tesla.

In fact, they dated for about a year, from 2016 to August 2017, but Depp pointed out that his ex-wife and the businessman began their romantic relationship much earlier, when they were still married.

The actor accused her of being unfaithful to Musk, but also to Channing Tatum, Leonardo DiCaprio, James Franco and other actors Heard had worked with.

Alejandro Romero, the doorman of the Eastern Columbia Building where the couple lived, told the British court: "Elon Musk often went to the attic during Mr. Depp's two-week absence."

Despite the poisoned darts being thrown at each other, they reached a divorce settlement in the summer of 2016. She dropped all the domestic violence charges and he paid seven million, instead of the 50,000 monthly pension. dollars that the interpreter originally claimed.

Of course, Amber Heard also wanted to make it clear that she is not an interested woman, as was often hinted at - for example, Del Toro told the

New York Daily News

: “What I know is that there are quite a few problems that come from that girl and everything. It sounds a bit manipulated to me ”- and that's why he promised to donate the money.

However, the dispute between the two did not stop there, as they continue to settle their differences in court.

Throughout the month of July Depp and Heard have seen each other again, albeit with a mask, in the Superior Tribune in London.

The actor sued News Group Newspapers, Rupert Murdoch's media empire, and

The Sun

editor

Dan Wooton for writing an article reinforcing the actress's allegations.

A trial in which both interpreters have continued talking about their stormy relationship.

Heard said that her ex-husband was "very good at manipulating people" and had an "extremely controlling and intimidating" behavior, in addition to fearing for his life at times.

For his part, Depp spoke of his addictions, which began when he was very young: “I hate to defend drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity for anyone, but they have always worked for me, but that does not make me a monster. ”.

After parting ways with Vanessa Paradis, he made a "real effort" to give up drinking.

Also revealed was the content of a letter that Depp sent to singer Elton John, a close friend whom he thanked for his support as he tried to give up his excesses: “My dear Elton, 100 fucking days of clarity for an old man like me.

No one would have ever believed it possible except a few, you the most important.

I would have swallowed the monster if it weren't for you. "

Despite

Depp's

mea culpa

, he did not want the addict image to affect only him and claimed that Heard suffered from the same problems.

Depp's lawyers assured that the judicial process was "very painful" for the actor.

However, the interpreter has no qualms about putting his ex-wife back on the bench.

The confrontation between the two has lasted four years and could continue like this if Depp continues determined to clean up his image and Heard, to become a heroine for women.
