- Amber Heard says she’s received death threats for speaking out
- She’s most likely talking about her allegations of abuse against Johnny Depp
- She won’t let herself be silenced by threats and harassment
Amber Heard has faced serious backlash for speaking out against her ex-husband Johnny Depp. Although she doesn’t name names, the actress has revealed in a new interview that she’s gotten death threats.
But it seems pretty clear that she’s referring to the abuse allegations, since she preaches about “standing up for what’s right” and “speaking your truth.” For refusing to be “silenced,” Heard says she’s gotten death threats, been harrassed, bullied, and had her career, livelihood and safety threatened – “yet I’m still here,” she notes.
“[My professional accomplishments are] nothing in comparison to the pride I feel for what I stood up for because it was right and true,” she adds. “I did that despite what it cost me. The wealth of pride gives back to me and will give back to my daughters and their daughters. I would rather be unpopular.”
- ONE MORE THING! Here’s the latest development of the former couple’s ongoing legal battle. Johnny Depp thinks there’s something fishy about a 911 call made by Heard’s friend iO Tillett Wright. Heard has testified that she was on the phone with Wright during an alleged physical attack by Depp, and Wright has corroborated by saying that Heard told her to call 911 at the time. But Depp’s camp says that have the Los Angeles Police Department call logs, and that the call was made over an hour and a half later.
