Johnny Depp Claims Amber Heard Did Not Donate $7 Million; Latter's Team Says She Intends To Fulfil Her Pledge
Amber Heard and Johnny Depp's relationship has been publicly talked about and scrutinised due to the allegations as well as lawsuits the duo filed against each other.
Amber
Heard
and
Johnny
Depp's
relationship
has
been
publicly
talked
about
and
scrutinised
due
to
the
allegations
as
well
as
lawsuits
the
duo
filed
against
each
other.
Johnny
Depp
reportedly
plans
on
filing
for
an
appeal
in
a
libel
case
against
The
Sun
soon,
based
on
the
claim
that
Amber
Heard
has
yet
to
donate
her
divorce
settlement
to
charity,
as
she
had
promised
to
do.
According
to
reports,
the
court
ruled
against
Depp
while
recognising
that
Amber
Heard
did
not
have
financial
motives
in
her
claims
against
Depp.
Andrew
Nichol's
verdict
had
sided
with
The
Sun
in
that
case
and
said,
"Her
donation
of
the
USD
7
million
to
charity
is
hardly
the
act
one
would
expect
of
a
gold-digger."
It
was
cited
that
Heard,
who
was
given
$7
million
as
part
of
the
divorce
settlement,
had
donated
the
money
to
charity.
However,
Johnny
Depp's
legal
team
has
now
made
a
claim
that
she
has
not
fulfilled
her
promise
of
donating
the
amount.
Amber
Heard's
legal
team
has
responded
with
a
statement
to
E!
News
and
confirmed
that
her
client
has
yet
to
fulfil
the
USD
7
million
pledge
due
to
financial
reasons.
They
alleged
that
Depp's
team
is
focusing
on
Heard's
donation
to
draw
away
focus
from
his
ongoing
legal
troubles.
Heard's
attorney
Elaine
Bredehoft
said,
"Amber
has
already
been
responsible
for
seven
figures
in
donations
to
charitable
causes
and
intends
to
continue
to
contribute
and
eventually
fulfil
her
pledge.
However,
Amber
has
been
delayed
in
that
goal
because
Depp
filed
a
lawsuit
against
her,
and
consequently,
she
has
been
forced
to
spend
millions
of
dollars
defending
Depp's
false
accusations
against
her."
Meanwhile,
Depp
is
currently
suing
Heard
for
defamation
and
damages
caused
to
his
career
due
to
the
allegations
of
domestic
abuse
against
Depp,
in
The
Washington
Post.
Notably,
Johnny
Depp
after
losing
the
libel
case
in
2020
was
asked
to
step
down
as
Gellert
Grindelwald
in
Fantastic
Beasts
series.
