Los Angeles: Actress Amber Heard opened up to NBC News on ‘Today’ about her life after the defamation trial with ex-husband Johnny Depp that captivated the nation.
When asked if she’s worried about being sued again by him for defamation, Heard said, “I’m scared that no matter what I do, no matter what I say or how I say it, every step that I take will present another opportunity for this sort of silencing,” she said, reports ‘Variety’.
The host Savannah Guthrie brought up Depp’s text message to Heard that she would suffer “total global humiliation,” and asked Heard if she thought that came true.
“I know he promised it,” she said.
“I testified to this. I’m not a good victim, I get it, I’m not a likable victim, I’m not a perfect victim. But when I testified I asked the jury to just see me as human and hear his own words, which is a promise to do this. It feels as though he has.” Asked if she was hoping to “cancel” Depp with the op-ed, Heard said, “Of course not. It wasn’t about him.”
