Amber Heard celebrated her 38th birthday with a glass of champagne, as seen in a social media post on Monday. The Aquaman actress shared a snapshot of herself enjoying the special occasion in a wine cellar, adorned in a golden turtleneck sweater and accessorized with earrings, rings, and a watch.
However, the timing of her celebration coincides with a contentious anniversary involving Heard. Tuesday marked eight years since an alleged incident in April 2016, which her ex-husband Johnny Depp claimed involved a disturbing prank. According to Depp’s testimony in 2022 during their legal battles, his maid discovered feces in his bed at his Los Angeles apartment. Depp asserted that Heard orchestrated the prank as retaliation for him leaving her birthday party early.
Heard has consistently denied these allegations, maintaining that their pet dogs were responsible for the feces. During the trial, she explained that one of their dogs had bowel control issues and often jumped onto the bed. Despite Depp’s insistence that the dogs were not large enough to produce such a “fecal delivery,” Heard remained steadfast in her defense.
Throughout the trial, both Depp and Heard offered contrasting accounts of the incident. While Depp initially found humor in the situation, Heard emphasized the seriousness of her circumstances at the time, citing ongoing marital issues and personal challenges.
Heard expressed her disbelief at Depp’s fixation on the incident, given the tumultuous state of their relationship and recent personal hardships. She adamantly denied any intention to play a prank on Depp, emphasizing the lack of humor in such a situation.
As Heard navigates her birthday festivities, the shadow of past controversies looms large. Despite the ongoing legal battles and public scrutiny, she continues to maintain her stance and focus on her personal and professional endeavors.
