Depp is suing Heard for libel in Fairfax County Circuit Court over a December 2018 op-ed she wrote in The Washington Post describing herself as "a public figure representing domestic abuse." His lawyers say he was defamed by the article even though it never mentioned his name.

A verdict in the trial is expected to be determined Tuesday.

  1. Good for him! He and AH will be needing to occupy their mind and time on something positive to move on! I’m sure this was much needed for him ✌🏾

  2. I just saw that A H is lounging at her million+ vacation home so her friend shouldn’t complain about JD’s choice of relaxation

  3. JOHNNY DEPP, relentless to be johnny in whatever form that takes…nobody can’t take that away.

  4. Johnny’s life is going to have peace and his soul will revive from the pain he endures. It is nice to see him becoming whole again and living freely without a demon on his back.

  5. Play JD., play. The world knows ur truth.
    Free, fly and soar with the 6yrs burden off ur back….it must feel so good and freeing.
    Do your best to seek excellent help on the alcohol, drugs & substance abuse….not easy, but u can do it!!!

  6. people relate to pain. this is why so many have related to johnny through his movies. somehow this dude keeps rocking through all the bullshit thrown at him. respect

  7. That just goes to show that Johnny is already at peace with the verdict. One way or the other. He got his side out there. He can handle it either way. He is at peace…. One thing a narcissist can’t have……
