Amber Heard will “absolutely” appeal the verdict reached this week in her defamation trial against ex-husband Johnny Depp, her attorney announced Thursday morning.

Elaine Bredehoft, who represented the “Aquaman” actor at the trial in Fairfax, Va., told NBC’s “Today” show that her client has “excellent grounds” for an appealDepp previously lost a similar libel case against the Sun tabloid in London, where a justice ruled in 2020 that “the great majority of alleged assaults of Ms. Heard by Mr. Depp have been proved to the civil standard.

“We even had tried to get the U.K. judgment in to dismiss his case because he already had his shot,” Bredehoft told “Today” anchor Savannah Guthrie.Advertisement In 2019, Depp filed a $50-million defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife based on a 2018 op-ed Heard wrote for the Washington Post in which she called herself “a public figure representing domestic abuse” but did not mention Depp by name.

In 2021, Heard filed a $100-million countersuit regarding public statements made by Depp’s former attorney, Adam Waldman, who dismissed her allegations of domestic violence as a “hoax.”

Tell something, didn’t she tell Johnny: 'Tell the world Johnny. Tell them Johnny Depp, I, Johnny Depp, a man, I'm a victim too of domestic violence and I know it's a fair fight, and see how many people believe or side with you' - Amber Heard. WELL, HE DID!

nobody will watch this time, we cannot handle another round of her lies.

Good luck with that

I thought she was traumatized and wanted to be left alone.

Her lawyers are happy that she is appealing the ruling...because they know they will continue to charge for their services...

oh be quiet both you and her - she has done SO much damage iro real victims of abuse 😓

Surely, she has the crazy idea that 'justice' only serves to prove her or the rest of the women right....

That should be interesting since she says she can't afford to pay him and there are no grounds. Just another game she plays to not accept she lied and she is the abuser
