Heard and Depp have been battling each other in a Virginia court for weeks. The actor accuses his ex of libel over a piece she wrote about domestic violence in The Washington Post†He demands $50 million from her, and she has sued him for $100 million.
Heard’s counterclaim alleges that Depp’s lawyer damaged the 36-year-old actress’ career when he accused her of concocting a “hoax.” “Mr. Depp is an abuser who abused Mrs. Heard,” Heard’s lawyer said. “She didn’t make up a hoax.” Depp’s attorneys filed a motion against Heard and her team’s claims, but it was rejected by the judge.
