Days before she is set to testify against Johnny Depp in her defamation trial, Amber Heard has switched up her public relations representatives, firing crisis PR firm Precision Strategies for a new team led by PR veteran David Shane, who confirm the hiring to TheWrap.
Heard has expressed frustration that Depp’s account of their turbulent relationship has been covered in the press more than her own, and is hoping that a change in representation can flip that.
Depp has denied all allegations as a media circus has swirled around the trial being held in Fairfax County, Virginia, which has been livestreamed online and aired on cable news networks at the request of Depp’s attorneys. Heard could take the stand as early as Tuesday.Advertisement
