Amber Heard has announced a new career move after moving to Spain and changing her name.
Amber Heard is speaking out after ex-husband Johnny Depp arrived in the country where she has sought refuge.
Heard, who relocated to Spain following the highly publicized 2022 defamation trial, has made it clear she’s moved on.
But Depp’s unexpected visit seems to have stirred up curiosity—leading Heard to break her usual silence.
The dark history between Depp and Heard detailed!
However, the history between Heard and Depp remains impossible to ignore. Let’s rewind to how it all began.
In December 2018, Heard penned an op-ed in The Washington Post detailing her experience with domestic violence.
Though she didn’t name Depp, the implications were clear—and Depp responded by suing Heard for defamation in 2019.
Famous courtroom battle exposed.
The trial, which kicked off in April 2022, became a media spectacle, revealing disturbing details from their volatile marriage.
Heard accused Depp of abuse, while Depp insisted he was the real victim of their toxic relationship.
The trial between the two, which captivated millions, saw Depp emerge victorious after a heated courtroom battle.
The courtroom drama concluded in June 2022 with the jury awarding Depp $15 million, and Heard $2 million for her countersuit.
Ultimately, Heard paid Depp $1 million to settle the case, walking away from Hollywood to focus on her personal life.
For Heard, the legal loss was a turning point—prompting her decision to escape the spotlight and rebuild her life overseas.
Amber’s new life in Mallorca exposed!
She left the U.S. for Spain, adopting a pseudonym while living in Mallorca, but it wasn’t long before locals discovered her identity.
Heard has since shifted her focus to raising her three-year-old daughter, mastering the Spanish language, and finding peace.
After first settling in Mallorca, Heard eventually moved to Madrid, where she’s been living quietly with her daughter.
Despite their legal battles, Depp and Heard have largely remained quiet about each other’s movements—until now.
While she’s kept a low profile, paparazzi in Madrid caught up with her recently, prompting her to share her thoughts.
Johnny’s career revival uncovered.
Depp is set to arrive in Spain on September 24 to promote his film Modi, which tells the story of painter Amedeo Modigliani.
For Depp, his visit to Spain is all business—centered around Modi, his latest directorial project.
Since the trial, Depp has worked hard to rebuild his reputation, securing several film roles and high-profile deals.
Heard, on the other hand, has taken a step back from the industry, with no new projects listed on her IMDb as of 2024.
Her last major appearance was in Aquaman 2, released in 2023, where she reprised her role as Mera, despite backlash.
Amber’s rare confession exposed.
When asked about Depp’s visit, Heard kept it simple, saying she’s “better” since moving to Spain.
“I’m living here in Madrid, I love Spain,” Heard shared with photographers. “I’m very lucky to be here.”
She continued, “Regarding my past, I don’t feel like thinking or talking about it, because I’m happy and in peace.”
This statement marks one of the few times Heard has publicly addressed her life post-trial.
Spain seems to have offered her the fresh start she desperately sought, away from the U.S. media circus.
“The people here are respectful and happy,” Heard previously said. “The moral values in Spain resonate with me.”
Amber shuts down Depp reunion!
With Depp’s upcoming visit to Spain, rumors swirled about a possible clash between the exes in Madrid.
But Heard was quick to dismiss the notion, saying she’s not interested in revisiting her past with Depp.
“I don’t feel like thinking or talking about it,” Heard repeated, emphasizing her desire to remain out of the drama.
For now, Amber Heard seems content to focus on her new life in Spain—far from the storm that once engulfed her.
And she seems to be going from strength to strength, announcing a new career.
The actress has ditched Hollywood for theatre, and has starred in Spirit of the People at the Williamstown Theatre Festival.
After a successful show, she said:
“Thank you to all of my fans and supporters for making this already unforgettable weekend so much more beautiful. The flowers won’t last forever but the memories of all the love and support I received through this, will.”
