Celebrity courtAugust 10, 2022

Johnny Christopher Depp was born on June 9, 1963, and is a famous American actor, musician, producer, and painter. He has been awarded multiple prestigious awards, including a Golden Globe Award and a Screen Actors Guild Award, in addition to nominations for three Academy Awards and two BAFTAS.

Amber Laura Heard is also a well-known American actress and activist born on April 22, 1986. She is known for her notable roles in the films Never Back Down (2008), Drive Angry (2011), The Rum Diary (2011), and in playing Mera in Aquaman. She is also a spokesperson for L’Oreal Paris and a human rights activist.

In 2018, Amber Laura wrote in a Washington Post op-ed that she had been a victim of sexual assault. Johnny Depp sued her for writing that, although she did not mention the Pirates of the Caribbean actor’s name, she wrote it a few years later after she accused Johnny Depp of abuse in 2016.

This is not something new, and it is common in the film industry where one actor accuses the other of defaming them, and generally, female actors charge male actors of physical harassment.

Well, both the actors have now taken their stand at Fairfax County, VA, courthouse. Some co-stars have come forward to support either Johnny Depp or Amber Laura through their social media and the latest interviews just a few weeks before the jury weighs in on their decision.

Let’s find out which actors are supporting Johnny Depp and who are in favor of Amber Laura.

Jennifer Aniston has not yet made any official statement showing her support for either Johnny Depp or Amber Laura in the trials. Still, she seems to be following Depp more on social media, quietly taking his side.

However, Depp denied all of her allegations.

Amber Laura Heard does not have much support compared to Johnny Depp, but this does not matter and is not sufficient for us to come to any conclusion related to either of the celebrities. We are waiting for the court’s final decision.

Whether Amber Heard emerges as the winner in this ongoing court battle or Depp is something we have to wait to see. However, the high-profile celebrity lawsuit has already garnered social media interactions in large numbers. It’s actually a bigger piece of news for netizens than the Russian invasion of Ukraine!
