Amber Heard says that she can’t open up a social media app without getting harassed by Johnny Depp’s die hard fans on almost a daily basis. The actress even said that all she now has is her “name” which her ex-husband apparently promised to take away from her. Here’s what you need to know.
Amber says that she became “bombarded” with online harassment from Johnny Depp supporters after she filed for a domestic violence restraining order against the actor in 2016.
Amber Heard Says That She Is Getting Harassed Online By Johnny Dep Fans Daily
Depp is suing his ex-wife for an op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post back in 2018, in which she said that she was a victim of domestic abuse, even though she never named him in her piece. Heard wrote that she’d become a “public figure representing domestic abuse” who “felt the full force of our culture’s wrath for women who speak out.” Though she didn’t mention Depp by name, she said she “had the rare vantage point of seeing, in real time, how institutions protect men accused of abuse.”
Heard, who is countersuing Depp for $100 million, said all she wanted from the divorce was for her ex to “leave me alone.” She also wanted him to state publicly that she was not a liar.
During her testimony, Heard said, “I was begging Johnny to not make me prove what I’ve had to sit on this stand in front of all of you and prove and talk about. I was begging not to have do this, and sit where I am sitting. I didn’t want this. I don’t wanna be here. … I was trying to get him to not call me a liar, because everything that I had said to date and everything I’ve said to date now is the truth.”
She added, “I wanted to clear my name. That’s all I have. … All I have is my name. I come from nothing. All I have is my integrity. All I have is my name — and that’s exactly what he promised to take from me.”
