End of one of the most spectacular marriage law legends of the last decades. Actress Amber Heard, 36, has announced that she has reached an agreement to end her appeals process in the US against her ex-husband Johnny Depp’s first-instance verdict in the defamation case. “After much deliberation, I have made the difficult decision to close a deal,” she wrote on Instagram. A step, he explained, matured, “after losing faith in the American justice system, where my testimony served as entertainment and gave rise to discussions on social networks”. His appeal was initially dismissed but later granted. According to entertainment website Deadline, the actress will compensate her ex-husband with just $1 million (versus the $8 owed), which he will donate to charity. Depp said he was “pleased” with the outcome of the case and his lawyers said his goal was not so much money as “to bring the truth to the surface.” ‘ they noted, and the $1 million payment ‘reinforces Heard’s acknowledgment that the legal system’s rigorous search for truth is over.’ who was released at the same time as her film “Aquaman”: Without ever naming her ex-husband, the actress had defined herself as “a public figure who represents domestic violence”. and his ex-wife fought back with a similar lawsuit. After the huge media content in which the protagonists of the short horror marriage tore each other up, the jury concluded that the two exes had defamed each other and sentenced Heard to her ex-husband and to him $10 million two million to his ex-wife. The actress therefore owed 8 million but claimed she didn’t have it. A few days after the verdict, one of Depp’s attorneys said the star was willing to waive the money if Heard refused to challenge him again on appeal. “From the start, it was about his reputation, it was never about money,” Ben Chew prophetically assured ABC.
