Amber Heard, found guilty of defamation against Johnny Depp a few hours ago, is completely broke because of the exorbitant costs to pay for her defense. She is not be able to pay for her 10.4 million (US) sentence, according to sources, including her own lawyer.
Yesterday (June 2), the actress’lawyer,Elaine Bredehoft, admitted on TV that her client did not have the resources to pay such a sum.
According to the New York Post, the star of the film Aquaman is reportedly running out of money. Sources say the 36-year-old actress isrelying on her homeowner’s policyto cover the costs of her current attorneys in the case.
Amber Heard’s lawyer’s billwas largely paid by The Travelers Companies, according to the terms of the actress’ insurance policy, sources said. However, such a policy typically does not cover the cost of the judgment, in this case, US$10.4 million.
Moreover, a vice president of the insurance company, Pamela Johnson, was spotted in court in Fairfax, Virginia, with the actress several times during her trial.
Amber Heard ‘s net worth has beenestimated at between $1.5 million and $2.5 millionby Celebrity Net Worthand other sources. It is therefore clear that the actress will not be able to pay his due to Johnny Depp.
The latter should not be surprised by this revelation. During the six-week trial,many witnesses said that the actress may not have the funds to pay her ex-husband.
In court, it was revealed thatAmber Heard was paid $1 million for the 2018 film Aquaman and an additional $2 million for the sequel, which is due out next year.
The bad press of the high-profile trial also caused the actress to lose her lucrative contract with L’Oreal.
If Johnny Depp, who once mentioned that he lost more than 22 million as a result of his ex-wife’s defamatory comments, thought that he would get a financial boost with his court victory, it seems that this is not the case.
