Heard strangely claimed he had no “bad feelings or ill will towards Depp”, although he recently tried to sue him for $ 100 million.

“I have no bad feelings or ill will towards him. I know it can be hard to understand or it can be very easy to understand if you’ve ever loved someone.”
Heard, who lost his defamation suit with Depp and was ordered to pay A $ 14.4 million, also criticized Depp’s lawyer’s claims that he faked bruises on his face.
“It simply came to our notice then. [then] you’re not hurt, “he said.
She later said that the Washington Post’s opinion piece Depp sued her, claiming she was a victim of domestic violence, did not intend to “cancel it.”

Earlier in the interview, Heard, 36, described Depp, 59, as a “liar” and claimed that the jury was convinced by viral posts on social media that mocked her.

“I did and said horrible and unfortunate things throughout my relationship. I behaved in a horrible way, almost unrecognizable to myself. I regret it a lot.
“I talked about horrible language, I talked about being pushed to the point that I didn’t know the difference between right and wrong.
“I will always feel like I was part of it, as if I was the other half of this relationship because I was. And it was very ugly, it could be very beautiful, and it was very toxic.
“We were horrible with each other and I made a lot of mistakes, a lot of mistakes, but I’ve always told the truth.”
The actress also admitted that the feudal couple found themselves as “brats” during the court battle.
“I wouldn’t blame the average person for looking at this and how it’s covered and not thinking they’re Hollywood brats at their worst,” he said.
Heard described passing in front of people chanting “Amber Heard’s death” and “burning the witch” when she arrived at court.
He said the trial was “the most humiliating and horrible thing I’ve ever been through.”
“I’ve never felt more distant from my own humanity. I felt less than human,” he said.
In response to statements by Depp’s attorney, Camille Vasquez, that Heard did “the performance of a lifetime” during his time at the booth, the actress responded by referring to Depp’s performance. in the 1990 film Edward Scissorhands.
“It simply came to our notice then.
“Am I the performer? I had heard weeks of testimonials insinuating, or saying very directly, that I’m a terrible actress. So I’m a little confused how they could both be.”
Depp received $ 14.4 million in compensation (AUD) after the jury ruled that Heard had defamed her by referring to herself as a “public figure representing domestic abuse” in an article for Washington. Post in 2018.
