Defamation?
The official version is that Heard owes $10 million to Depp in damages, due to the defamatory claims she allegedly made in her op-ed for The Washington Post.
In that written piece, Heard didn’t explicitly mention her ex-husband. However, she claimed to be “a public figure representing domestic abuse,” and she wrote a passage about seeing “how institutions protect men accused of abuse.” But that’s not all.
