Lovers launch GoFundMe pages to help Amber Heard pay Johnny Depp
The former couple was the subject of a high-profile defamation case that began in April.
The 58-year-old Pirates of the Caribbean star was trying to sue heard, 36, for دولار 50 million after she referred to herself as a “public figure representing domestic violence” in a 2018 opinion piece for the Washington Post. At the same time, the Aquaman star was corresponding to دولار 100 million due to comments made by Depp’s former lawyer, Adam Waldman.
Amid the seven-week trial, both parties accused the other of being abusive, as witnesses and experts testified to the Fairfax, Virginia, courtroom.
Finally, on Wednesday, the jury unanimously ruled in Depp’s favor, and the court awarded him دولار 10 million in compensatory damages and disciplinary damages of 3 350,000.
Heard’s lawyer, Ellen Bredehoft, will later appear as a guest on the Today show, where she told host Savannah Guthrie that the Aquaman star” absolutely ” cannot pay damages of دولار 10.35 million.
And although Bredehoft failed to clarify these comments, Hird’s fans appear to have taken action on her behalf.
As reported by TMZ, one of heard’s fans went so far as to create a GoFundMe page for Heard, looking for an initial amount of دولار 1 million to be raised.
In screenshots taken from the page, the fundraising title was ‘justice for Amber Heard’ and was launched by someone named Kimberly Moore.
Description of the fundraiser read:
“The trial was a disgrace. Affirm that Amber and social media protect the oppressor. The verdict exceeds her net worth. It is very sad that he was able to get away from the abuse. The verdict reinforces this abuse. If you can please help her. She will have direct access to money.”
Moore added that she was also in touch with Hird’s lawyers so they could” ring ” the actor in.
Timz adds that a GoFundMe spokesperson confirmed that the fundraiser was not set up by Amber Heard or a member of the actor’s team.
In addition, after a quick tick, the page was removed before collecting a “large sum of money”.
Amazingly, however, more GoFundMe pages have been launched in order to help support I heard.
