Depp v Heard: Actress's $45m loss of earnings disputed as court told about 'lack of chemistry' in Aquaman
Amber Heard's estimated $45m loss of earnings due to negative statements made by Johnny Depp and his attorney has been disputed in court, as their ongoing libel battle ends its 21st day. Depp is suing Heard over an article she wrote in the Washington Post in 2018, in which she claimed to be a victim of domestic abuse - his lawyers say this falsely implies he physically and sexually abused her while they were together. Heard is countersuing Depp for $100m (£80m) saying she was defamed when he called her a liar.
