Amber Heard bought herself a treat at Tiffany’s after she filed (update)

Update: Many outlets ran these photos as if they were from Monday. In fact that were just released on Monday, but were taken a month ago, as US Magazine reports.


Is this harsh? I have no idea. All I know is that these photos of Amber Heard leaving Tiffany’s came out yesterday, before we learned of the divorce filing. And now various sites are running these pics as “the first photos of Amber since she filed for divorce.” Which is technically true – Amber did a pap stroll outside of Tiffany’s on May 24th, Tuesday. She filed for divorce on Monday the 23rd. And Johnny’s mother died last Friday, the 20th.

All of which means she filed the divorce petition on Monday and then less than 24 hours later, she decided to reward herself with a little treat from Tiffany’s. Maybe she wanted to see if her joint credit cards were still working! Like, did Depp shut down her AmEx? If not, Depp might have even “purchased” Amber’s divorce treat. I wonder what she got? If my credit cards were all still working the day after I filed for divorce, I would Blu Cantrell the bitch. Wouldn’t it be amazing/horrible if Amber also made trips to Neil Lane, Dior, Chanel and Louis Vuitton???

CB and I were debating whether Amber called the paps on herself at Tiffany’s. At first I thought this was probably a stroll sponsored by Tiffany’s, like they paid her to be photographed leaving the store. But it’s Tiffany’s? So probably not. It’s more likely that Amber called the paps because she wanted to be seen, post-divorce, clutching a jewelry bag and wearing virginal all-white.

While Amber has asked for financial support from Depp in her divorce filing, Johnny’s response petition is asking the court to reject Amber’s request. My gut instinct yesterday was that this whole thing was not really about money. But now I’m wondering if Amber really is going to try to take Johnny to the cleaners.

Here are some photos of Amber at LAX on May 6th.

    This is gonna be so delicious!

      Especially if we get more tea like this:
      (NOT MY WORDS)

      Heard’s not well-liked in the business, and already has a reputation of just being hard to work with. Her spoiled-brat personality and Cinderella Complex calls for her to be waited on and catered to at all times. The irony of that…she hasn’t been in any real big-budget movies where she was actually the star of it. She’s had a lot of small parts in a lot of things. And it’s questionable how she got a few of those parts, as they could’ve been played by actresses far better and more attractive.

      Her Dad is a pretty rich and successful businessman and attorney in town. They’ve always been close and he’s pretty much always spoiled her. And to this day, he still feels that she can do no wrong. There are a lot of famous people from here. Far more famous, well-known and talented than she’ll ever be. But, they’re nice people, they give back to this town, they do things for this town…and people love them all the more for it. Before she made her start here, she wasn’t so well-liked. She’s from here, but yet she says the worst things about this place, talks down to all of the people here. Yet, she feels she should be considered one of the city’s true treasures for the actress that she is. I’ve been with her and Johnny on numerous occasions here. Yes, she is a pretty girl. But every time she would open her mouth, she would just become more and more unattractive by the minute. I simply can’t stand to be around her. And the two kind of stopped coming here, I think because a lot of people, or Johnny’s friends at least, couldn’t stand to be around her either. But never too far away, has been her dad at her defense.

      • BearcatLawyer says:

        QQ, that gif is perfect.

        In other news, even though she can be such a mess at times, I do love Rihanna. The foundation she set up in her grandparents’ names has already done so much for Bahamian students. Good on her.

      • Kelly says:

        I wonder how much this will impact her career. Seeing how Hollywood circles the wagons around some celebs, she could be out.

      • QQ says:

        That was My Next question Kelly cause; We know the roles she got were not on her merit, so.. she is blackballed? is she content being a carefree hippie socialite, then??

        Bearcat, I TOTALLY adore her I like that she hasn’t bought into the zero sum game that either you are good OR a bad girl that flaunts her sexual side, I do know that she is apparently very involved with her Grandma’s cancer charity and has apparently set up trusts funds for several employee’s children to do schooling, but also will smoke her a blunt when she feels so move and flaunt her right to be sexual and carefree and be a devoted auntie too LOL

      • julid says:

        I thought she was from TX? Maybe I read this wrong..I do that a lot. She’s DEF not well liked.

    • Yolie C says:

      Right??! Brewing some extra strong tea for this!! It’s about to go down!

  2. HeidiM says:

    She must have set the ball rolling long before May 22 though right? Can you walk into a lawyers office and file on the same day?

    • jsilly4e says:

      Yeah that’s what I’m thinking. We don’t know if he was blindsided by this, maybe he wasn’t. Maybe he was like ok go ahead file. I understand it’s a celeb gossip site but we really don’t know what she had to put up with. Being a bad actress or a brat doesn’t mean she didn’t suffer.

      I just know I broke up with an ex-boyfriend and everyone was telling me I’m a fool and he was too good for me, etc. etc. Because he was tall and really good looking. That’s what they were basing it on. Not that behind closed doors I suffered from him disappearing for days, berating me, and ultimately cheating on me, etc.

      Nobody knows what’s really going on. I’m sorry his mother died but maybe they were keeping this separate from that.

      • jsilly4e says:

        And do you have to be a gold digger because you shop at Tiffany’s? I think she does make some money of her own from being in movies. And I’ve shopped at Tiffany’s and I’ve never made nearly as much as she did.

        I really don’t care for her and don’t think she’s a very good actress. I do think she’s very pretty though.

      • Kitten says:

        Of course not, but most celebrities who are going through a very public divorce have a team of people advising them on their image. This doesn’t seem like a smart move on Amber’s part.

      • frisbee says:

        Alternatively it could be a very deliberate move on her part to prove she doesn’t need his money, that it’s not about that – even though most people think it is….

    • Sue says:

      Yes, you may file the same day as you walk into a attorneys office, most attorneys file court documents online now and it’s post marked same day.

    • BearcatLawyer says:

      A basic divorce petition would not necessarily take long to prepare and likely could be filed electronically, if only to start the ball rolling. It is pretty common for people to file generic divorce petitions just to begin the process and amend them later to add specific claims or requests.

    • bbb1975 says:

      You can walk into a lawyers office and file…I did. Had the papers mailed to my husband

  3. neocleo says:

    Poor Johnny. What crapfest this is for him.

    • tiny martian says:

      Sorry, I loved Johnny back in the day, but he gets no real sympathy from me, other than for the death of his mom. That part is truly sad.

      As for the rest? Any middle-aged man who dumps his partner for a young hottie, lets himself go physically and shows up at events looking like a drunken fool deserves to lose his arm candy. And if she takes him to the cleaners? Well, he should’ve seen that coming, as there are ways to prevent that from happening.

      • Mel M says:

        Agreed, no one really knows what might have gone on behind closed doors. I mean if he acted this ridiculous in public no telling what he was like when they were alone. Also, how long has in been since they made that apology video? I wonder if it was as uncomfortable for them to make as it was for us to watch.

    • Ravensdaughter says:

      Agree with all of the above. Look at all the years he was with Vanessa Paradis and they were not married. Then he married Amber Heard on the rebound (I’m not sure what the timing was) with no prenup. Utter stupidity that he will pay for…

      • Aurelia says:

        And how nice for his 2 children to part with a chunk of their future inheritence to this bimbo ex wife.

    • Yolie C says:

      I have some sympathy for Johnny because of his mother. But it seems like he’s been in a downward spiral ever since he hooked up with Amber. Vanessa was good for him and he just pushed her aside to marry someone young enough to be his daughter. He would do well with a vacation and a shower. Maybe he’ll go away for awhile and start making good movies again.

      • tealily says:

        I tend to think the relationship with Amber was a symptom of the downward spiral that was already happening. Right place/ right time kind of thing.

      • Bread and Circuses says:

        Vanessa has implied he was checked out of their relationship long before they officially split. (And I’m convinced they split about a year before they made it official, to give their kids time to adjust to the new normal before the tabloids got hold of things.) Plus Amber didn’t show up right away.

        I agree Vanessa was good for him but his addictions or mid-life crisis or whatever caused him to wander away from it all. With Amber, I think he knew he was going to have trouble hanging onto her, and he was smitten, so he married her when he really should not have.

      • Kate says:

        I’m not really sure why people think Vanessa was good for him? They share some of the same vices, and if anything she enabled him.

        Having young kids was good for him. It’s not a coincidence he went from lifelong high functioning alcoholic to only barely functioning alcoholic right around the age his kids didn’t ‘need’ him in the sense of being reliant on him to survive. He was spiralling before Vanessa got pregnant, and he went straight back into spiralling once the kids were out of elementary school. He was already becoming a huge mess years before he and Vanessa split up.

        He became heartthrob decades ago while acting and dressing exactly how he is now. He hasn’t changed, he’s not having a mid-life crisis, he’s just not hot anymore. The lame attempts at being a rock-star, the belt of scarves adorned with more scarves, the bad Keith Richards impersonation, being drunk on the red carpet, people thought that was cool. Now that the lifestyle finally caught up with him and he’s bloated with bad skin, it’s not cool anymore.

      • Lucinda says:

        I think people saw Vanessa as being good for him because he was pretty stable during his time with her. It was only when he was with her that he didn’t constantly seem publicly drunk and reckless. There were stories of partying regularly, and generally being a brilliant actor but messy person before he met her. The difference is that in his 20’s, he was simply the bad boy heart throb. In his 50’s, his is a drunken fool. He was also engaged several times before he met her and then got engaged again shortly after leaving her which is what makes me think it was her who didn’t want to get married all along. He has always been a serial monogamist. I expect he will be engaged again within the next year.

    • Sabrine says:

      No prenup. These old fools never learn. They think these young gold-diggers want them for themselves!

      • cherrypie says:

        My theory is that after marrying Amber, Johny probably realized it was a mistake and so did whatever he could to “push” her out. Look at all his antics in the past couple of years. Some people do crazy things so that the other party will eventually get fed up and leave.

        My guess is that Johnny will be back to his old self pretty soon. My condolences on the loss of his mom. must be a rough time for him.

      • kanyekardashian says:

        @Cherrypie – you’re totally right. Fred Armisen said on Howard Stern that he fell in love with the idea of marriage but once he was actually married to Elizabeth Moss he started behaving like a child playing video games all the time and ignoring her so that she would leave him. Men who do this are absolute cowards.

      • Zuzus girl says:

        kanyekardashian- That’s awful. Way to man up. Fred Armisen is a first rate cowardly dick.

        I don’t think they’ve been married long enough for her to get squat. She should get something for having to live with his odor.

      • wolfpup says:

        It’s sad that Johnny’s (lots of men’s) dream is in shards.

        Yet, girl’s shouldn’t get paid for spreading their legs. Equal pay is all that is proper. Equal pay is essential to end these hopeless drama’s.

        It’s very difficult when one’s dreams are broken forever. Amber has her father – she had no dreams at all concerning her marriage to Depp. Johnny now has only has old age. Death is a reality, and I wish that he had his mother to comfort him.

  4. UCatwoman says:

    Maybe she’ll get enough money to lose the mom jeans.

  5. Shambles says:

    She’s making it way too easy. If people have already called you a golddigger and you choose to go shopping at Tiffany’s the day after you file for divorce, you either want the attention that comes from that label or you’re just plain stupid.

    • Kaiser says:

      She’s not a genius.

      • Suzy from Ontario says:

        I think she’s a user and a golddigger and she doesn’t care if people know it. She’s laughing all the way to the bank. Wish I could say I was surprised, but really? Who is? Maybe Johnny, but he had been in denial for so long, who knows?

      • Roxane says:

        Definetly.

      • Eleonor says:

        She is a free spirit.

    • AnnaKist says:

      And this is the day after she filed. I wouldn’t mind betting she had a massive, glorious spend-up at her favourite shops before Monday. It’s not a good look at all, but I don’t think she gives a toss. This could get filthy. Or she’ll be paid off, swiftly and silently.

    • Luca76 says:

      Yup really stupid and really egotistical. She either has the worst PR team in the world or she’s pig-headed as well.

    • Size Does Matter says:

      Maybe she was buying someone a gift?

    • Caz says:

      I don’t think she cares what people think. She played Depp and if she gets a $$$settlement she never has to work again. Gold diggers..THIS is how it’s done.

      The bogan with Rob Kardashian has someone taking notes for her for future reference.

    • kibbles says:

      I would not care what others are thinking if I were her. If she had cared she would not have entered into this relationship because it was clear as day to anyone why she was marrying Depp. Most of us have thought from the very beginning of this relationship that she was using Depp to both boost her career and because he’s filthy rich. The marriage didn’t help her career, but she will walk away with millions and live a life of leisure. Depp could have gotten a prenup. It was his choice to have a woman who is young enough to be his daughter potentially take half of his fortune. I wish I could be with someone for only 15 months and basically win the lottery and walk away with millions of dollars. I can’t even hate her for this.

      • wolfpup says:

        How would you feel if John was your son? Everything goes both ways, and women are not for sale, even though our culture would sell us out.

        There is something to be said for a person who approaches marriage in good faith (without a prenup). It takes years to realize that you are a fool, and then you are nearly dead. Or – finally, you realize how you’ve lived the answers to all of your questions, yet still, your body is dying.

        This is very difficult for Johnny – not for Amber.

  6. Alex says:

    Johnny hired the best lawyer possible so I hope Amber is ready for a fight. My gut says 15 months is going to get her a lot less than she thinks esp consider Johnny’s career while they were married. She also signed a major contract herself with DC so yea that will be factored in as well. If she was a smart gold digger she would’ve waited to sign onto the DC movie lol

  7. HollyG says:

    Of course she called the paps herself. She probably went in and bought the tiniest key ring, then requested a large blue bag.

    • Cherry says:

      To what aim…? To be called a golddigger? I don’t get it.

      • jsilly4e says:

        I accidentally replied to myself above. I meant to put this here:

        And do you have to be a gold digger because you shop at Tiffany’s? I think she does make some money of her own from being in movies. And I’ve shopped at Tiffany’s and I’ve never made nearly as much as she did.

        I really don’t care for her and don’t think she’s a very good actress. I do think she’s very pretty though.

      • MoochieMom says:

        You can buy a $75 charm at Tiffany and request a large bag. I always plan to wear what I buy with no bag. Pap all the way.

      • HollyG says:

        She may have called the paparazzi and told them she was out shopping, then wandered in and out of various stores. However, the one image that got picked up was this one: she’s buying jewelry in her nightgown while her soon to be ex husband is burying his mother.

        Or else she just loves the dramz.

  8. JenYfromTheBlok says:

    She’s just some millennial who married an out of control drunk 90s icon. Maybe she’s buying a gift for someone, really. Who knows. Also the ‘no pre nup” just means she’s entitied to half of what they purchased or half of what he earned in the year of marriage. She’s not entitled to half of what he earned or owned before the marriage. She might have fared better with a pre-nup that was cut and dry, because a wealthy dude can drag this out in court and she will suffer the court costs for awhile But I will tell you, care taking a drunk/druggie is hard work and she probably earned her paycheck.

    • Myrna says:

      She may forgo the 50/50 split of assets acquired during the short marriage if he proves she’s had a lesbian lover for the entire marriage.
      I bet he goes with “fraud.”

  9. Eleonor says:

    I can hear Vanessa Paradis laughing from here.

    • SJO says:

      That is exactly where I went. Loving the public revenge for the middle aged ex-wife.

    • paolanqar says:

      I don’t think Vanessa is laughing. She shares kids with him so I am sure she is a bit worried more than happy at the moment.
      I wouldn’t be surprised if they got back together.

      • MoochieMom says:

        She isn’t laughing. She is sad. As someone who loves some, especially with kids, this sucks. I don’t feel sorry for her but I’d give her a hug if I could.

      • Kitten says:

        I don’t see them getting back together at ALL. This relationship seems like it’s past the point of repair.

      • JenYfromTheBlok says:

        Vanessa Paradis seems to have moved on romantically. She strikes me as someone who didn’t suffer his middle aged hollywood bs.

    • Luca76 says:

      Considering her kids gran just died I doubt it.

    • Wren says:

      Quietly, to herself, I bet she is. But she’s also probably upset the death of her kids’ grandmother and the ugly mess this divorce is shaping up to be. She’s tied to him through their children, though they’re almost grown.

      You can feel more than one emotion at once.

  10. L says:

    Upon receiving the devorc paperwork JD probably told Amber ” while I am looking this over and before I sign, why don’t you go down to Rodeo drive and pick yourself something out. It will give you time to reflect on your choices”. Lol

  11. Miss Jupitero says:

    A very short marriage with no trophy baby. Come on.

    I would be very surprised if she came out of this with anything substantial. As JenYfromTheBlok points out, 50% of marital property isn’t going to be very much. Half of what they bought and half of what he earned during the marriage.

    Spousal support? Does she not understand how difficult it is to get such a thing these days?

    • Bridget says:

      Spousal support is probably just something to negotiate with. Ask for everything you can think of initially, knowing you’re going to have to make some concessions.

    • Christin says:

      Fifteen months is very little time, especially without children.

    • Tulip says:

      I am so happy there is no trophy baby. That is , in a way, good luck for both of them.

      Keeping your ex in the past is priceless and lovely. You can’t ever have that when you have kids with them.

  12. FingerBinger says:

    Why can’t it be about money? She’s going to need money for the lifestyle she’s grown accustomed to.

  13. Elisa the I. says:

    Awesome! Popcorn!
    And IMO divorcing is the best idea for both of them.

  14. Rhiley says:

    Tiffany’s may have arranged this. They made the stock news yesterday because theirs is down, way down. I don’t know if a sighting by Amber Heard would do anything to help bump them up, but who knows.

  15. Don't kill me I'm French says:

    If Tiffany shop is at Beverly Hills,she didn’t call the paps . the paps always are at Beverly Hills.Many luxury shops and some big agent/manager agencies are there so many celebrities are spotted in this aera

    • MoochieMom says:

      Not at Tiffany anymore. It’s too mainstream now. You go there for a specific thing by appointment and no one sees. You walk in and out – they could care less.

  16. CornyBlue says:

    People are just being ridiculous now. She deserves everything she gets for agreeing to be with the current Johnny Depp

    • Roxane says:

      Like anyone obliged her.

    • Kitten says:

      I hope “everything she gets” is a whole lot of nothing. She got the career boost and she should be happy for that much. And FWIW, I said the same thing about Cuoco’s ex.

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      I thought you married someone because you wanted to share your life with them, not to get every cent you can grab. Silly me.

  17. justjj says:

    I feel so bad for Johnny. He needs to dry out for a year or two, for sure, but these men, these Ben Affleck moments, it’s sad. I hope with all these messy, hideously unattractive, mid life crises emerging in the public spotlight on these once attractive, successful, men we can begin to acknowledge the male ego (and libido) for the beast it really is… Desperation is a stinky cologne. Yet they follow their penis off a cliff every time… Maybe the media should stop portraying women over 40 as the desperate ones and start portraying their male peers who pull these stunts as what they are instead of suave rich womanizers who of course deserve a blonde 24 year old. I swear, when I’m 50, if my husband trades me in for a college student, I’m going to become a lesbian. Vanessa must be enjoying a croissant and a long stroll in the park right about now.

    • sara says:

      THIS!! AMEN JUSTJJ

    • isabelle says:

      They’re grown men who know exactly what they’re doing. Don’t feel one bit sorry for them willingly giving up wealthy and marriages for young poon. its like gambling you know there is a chance you will lose everything to a gold-digger and well Johnny lost.

    • Zwella Ingrid says:

      You said it all Justjj I’m with you!

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      Stop treating them like helpless children. Do you honestly think they are unaware that they’re making a trade? Youth and looks for money? They know what they’re buying. They think it’s worth it. Hollow and lazy and pathetic as it is, they aren’t victims.
      And I’m not sure that’s how being a lesbian works, but good luck with that.

  18. paolanqar says:

    She better hold onto every little penny because she is not going to get much out of this divorce. She might need it.

  19. Christin says:

    Is that her social media account, or a ‘fan’? I’m just confused. I thought Friday evening of a holiday weekend was one of the popular times to announce a celeb split. That (in America) would be tomorrow. Still not understanding the timing.

    If her goal is to look cold and opportunistic, great job.

  20. PunkyMomma says:

    Don’t forget – she totally has the goods on Depp. Her silence comes with a hefty price tag. And Depp is not going to want to drag this out. I’m looking for a settlement of an undisclosed amount and these two never breathing the same air again.

    • paolanqar says:

      Yes but what about us?
      We want to know! 😀

    • stinky says:

      He is so obviously on dope as well as the booze.
      He’s a WRECK.
      Looks b-a-d.
      I’m not even on her side but one look at HIM tells me they’ve been struggling all this time because of his addiction. He looks HORRIBLE and has for many years.
      I can see getting to the point of no return w/ an addict.
      I kind of feel like she does love him and cant stand to be complicit in his shenanigans.
      Otherwise, wouldn’t she just sit tight and wait for him to o.d – then get her mitts on $400M ?
      Im serious. He’s in deep.

    • jinni says:

      What goods? We all can see for ourselves that he’s on drugs and drinks too much. How is that a secret? Plus, like when Hilary Swank throw her ex under the bus for his addictions no one took that too kindly. Also, she isn’t exactly squeaky clean herself. There have been rumors about her an Tatum as well as Momoa, so she has her own closet full of skeletons to drag out.

      • Kitten says:

        Some of the comments about Depp’s appearance and his addiction are pretty heartless, as if the guy doesn’t deserve anything in life because he has an alcohol problem. He’s not worthless, guys-he’s still a human being.

        As someone who dated an addict for many years, I can attest that it was no picnic, but he was (and still is) a VERY good man who deserves only the best. I just saw him on Sunday actually and he’s doing great–12 years sober.

        People seem to have a lot of trouble separating the person from the disease when it comes to addiction.

        Alas, the stigma continues…

      • tealily says:

        Exactly. I’m pretty sure we have a good idea of what’s going on with Johnny.

      • StumpyCorgi says:

        Thanks for saying that, Kitten. I’ve been astonished at the cruel comments about Johnny’s possible addictions. Some are belittling and shaming him for addiction, which is completely ignorant. Addiction is a disease!! Anyone struggling with it deserves compassion, not ridicule! It re-wires one’s brain, and it is a 24/7 battle. It is not a choice. I lost a dear friend to addiction a couple years ago. It was a terrible tragedy and it breaks my heart to think that he couldn’t reach out for help. The stigma of addiction is infuriating.

        And Johnny isn’t a kid anymore! Why do so many people think it’s ok to ridicule his changing looks? Yeah, he’s gained some weight; he’s not as fresh-faced as he was. That’s aging! Maybe part of his declining appearance is due to addiction– again, not ok to ridicule. To me he has always been a remarkable artist and he always will be, no matter what he looks like or demons he’s fighting.

  21. Maya says:

    She’ll soon latch onto another older, wealthy man. Look for stories about her and Affleck while they’re filming Justice League. Who knows, maybe she left Depp for him?

    • MoochieMom says:

      With a prenup. A hard core, iron clad prenup. She screwed the pooch on the gold digging early.

    • boredblond says:

      Gossip has it she’s already (recently ) had a fling with Dave Franco…
      Am I the only one who thought she went shopping in a white silk robe?

      • kai says:

        Isn’t Dave Franco engaged to someone? I said this here before, but I want to see her with James Franco. Their combined pretentiousness would be so entertaining.

      • Sarah says:

        Uhh nooo Dave Franco is engaged to the beautiful and talented Alison Brie!

    Anyone have an ID on those sunglasses she’s wearing? I need them in my life right now.

    Aside from that she’s a repulsive person.

  23. HeyThere! says:

    I don’t feel bad for JD. God knows what AH has had to deal with the past two years. Nonstop drug use and party crap gets old. He has looked like he was on 4 different kids of drugs since the day they met. Who knows? Maybe she is an evil lady, but something tells me this has been a long time coming. I almost married an older non famous millionaire back in my early 20’s. He was nice and then once I moved across country to be with him, he was a pill popping crazy alcoholic who cheated. I honestly planned my escape for 8 months. Little by little. He had me down to where I had almost no family contact, no money of my own. Everything I did he tracked. Not saying that’s how they are. I broke things off before the wedding and sent his ass packing, gave him EVERYTHING possession and money wise. I just wanted my life back from the monster. BUT people looking in at it probably thought I was this evil spoiled gold digger who was mad I had to sign a prenup!!!! I hate to think that one person felt bad for him. Anywho, I’m glad they are split. They didn’t seem to go together. And I’m happily married to my high school sweetheart with a baby now! Woot for happily ever afters!!!

    • tealily says:

      Yes, this exactly. We have no idea what’s been going on in this marriage, but obviously Johnny is no saint. (Congrats on getting out in time!)

      • HeyThere! says:

        Thank you. I almost didn’t and it terrifies me to think what my future could have been. I wish him all the best as long as it’s no with me! 😉

    • Kitten says:

      I feel bad for anybody who’s in the throes of an addiction, but that’s just me.

      I wonder if people would be saying the same if Johnny had a mental illness instead….

      • jinni says:

        Isn’t addiction considered a mental illness? Also, I doubt even the knowledge of a mental illness would make some around here stop from trying to make him look abusive. It’s almost as if they hope if they imply it enough times it will make that unfounded narrative true.

      • Kitten says:

        Well addiction is certainly a genetic, neurological disease plus there’s the environmental component.
        I’m not singling out anyone specifically but just generally-speaking, some of the comments about Johnny’s addiction are dripping with revulsion. I think for a lot of people, addict = loser. People lose sight of the fact that it’s a chronic disease and that addicts deserve empathy, not spite.

      • Laura-j says:

        I have the utmost and respect for people trying to get out of the downward spiral. My partner is alcoholic and because of it we are separated while he gets his life back on track. I don’t have as much sympathy for very wealthy people who don’t take the resources at their disposal to at least try to get to a healthy place. Wouldn’t care one way or another it’s his life, but he does have kids that could use a dad.

        I hope he just aged badly, but I’m pretty sure that’s not it.

    • Kitten says:

      Meant to add that @Heythere-It sounds like you dated a total asshole who just happened to be an addict as well.

      That doesn’t mean that every addict is automatically an asshole, if you understand the difference.

      • tealily says:

        Yes, but it can be incredibly difficult to be in a relationship with someone who is in the throes of an addiction, so I hate to judge her too harshly. And we know that Johnny has a history of being a volatile guy. She may not have realized what exactly she was signing up for when she got into this marriage.

      • jinni says:

        @tealily: Other than the occasional pap and one hotel room ( both incidents being years ago), who has he been accused of being volatile to? Kate even said in her last interview that he made her feel safe and everyone knows that he was a hot drugged out mess when he was with Kate, so why do you think he’d be developing violent tendencies towards people all of a sudden so late in life even while high/ drunk when he didn’t show a pattern for that in his youth?

      • tealily says:

        I meant the occasional pap and the hotel room incident from years ago. They don’t count as a pattern? I never said he was violent, I’m pointing out that he has a history of having a temper and we have no idea what goes on behind closed doors. Perhaps Amber is a gold digger, but Johnny isn’t perfect. I think we should acknowledge the possibility that HIS behavior could have had something to do with the split. Is that unreasonable?

      • Kitten says:

        @Tealily-It IS possible for sure. And even more than that, I think it’s likely that they both had a hand in the dissolution of the relationship. Dating an addict is difficult for sure but if they were both using, she might have been just as erratic behaviorally as he was.

        I’m trying not to project too much but this subject is one that is close to my heart. I’ll just say this: if the romance was volatile or tumultuous to begin with, adding drugs/alcohol to the mix will only exacerbate that.

        Again, I don’t think Amber is the devil, but I genuinely believe she is not the right partner for Johnny and vice versa. Not because she’s young or because she’s a “gold digger” but because she seemed to trigger something in him that put him on a downward spiral. That is NOT to say that I blame her for the demise of the relationship! Just that she and Johnny are a toxic combo. Sometimes two people are good separately but not good together.

        My personal opinion about Johnny is that he is a genuinely good and caring guy with some serious demons. I don’t for one second think he was abusive towards Amber.

        And of course, none of us know exactly what happened between the two of them, but it’s fun to speculate 😉

      • jinni says:

        @tealily: It can’t be a pattern when it stop ages ago. Now if he was still getting into these kinds of things than you’d be right, but that isn’t the case.

        Also, I’m sure his issues were a strain, I guess I’m just tired of people acting like she didn’t know what he was going through when they got together. They dated for three years before they got married and in that time he had the big drunken display at the Hollywood Film Awards and he looked/ sound/ behaved high/ drunk most of the time. So for people to act like she was this blindsided innocent that was hoodwinked into marrying such a mess is annoying.

        Also, I find it sick that people are trying to imply that he was abusive even though there is absolutely no evidence for that, but people are just gleefully insinuating these things as if he has a known history of abuse like Sean Bean, Josh Brolin, Charlie Sheen. etc. That’s just nasty.

      • tealily says:

        @jinni Did the pattern end or did incidents stop occurring publicly? We have no way of knowing. Again, I am not saying he was abusive, you said that. I’m not saying she was an innocent blindsided either, I’m saying that she could have gotten in to a position where perhaps she didn’t know the extent of his issues until later in the relationship. Or she may have thought she could handle it, but she couldn’t. We don’t know. People are “gleefully insinuating” the gold digger narrative as well, but you seem to have no problem with that. There are many reasons a relationship can fall apart and it’s rarely the sole fault of one party or another. People gossip and conjecture, especially on gossip sites.

        And @kitten, I agree with you that they aren’t good for each other. I think he was in a bad place when the two of them got together, and they probably built a lot of their relationship on shared unhealthy behaviors.

      • HeyThere! says:

        Hi Kitten, sorry I’m just seeing this! I think it is a bad situation for both of them. AH probably fell in love with the idea of what JD was. Huge movie star and he wanted her of all people?! Fairytale! Wrong. People are not who they are in the movies, or really even when you first meet them. You get the best version of them. You’re blindsided by love feelings, and once the dust settles you realize nothing is what it seems. I just know how much it sucks to be the person with the addict. You’re wondering what is going to set them off next?! He seems different, did he use today and I didn’t know?! It’s just so unstable and terrifying. That’s the honest answer on why I lack loads of sympathy for JD. Of course I feel for him in this mess, but I see so much hate on AH I thought I would offer a different view. I hope JD comes out on top of all his demons.

      • jinni says:

        @Tealily: If you weren’t trying to imply he was abusive than what was your purpose in saying that he was/ has volatile tendencies? I didn’t say you were saying she was blindsided I said people are acting that way. Where did I say I was happy everyone was calling her a golddigger? If anything my comments about her have been about her being a famewhore that used him to get attention than someone that was after his money. Also being thought of as a golddigger is no where near as bad as being seen as abusive. So you can’t even compare the two. People are laughing and big upping her at the thought of her sticking him for his cash that would not be the case if actual abuse was involved.

      • tealily says:

        @jinni I’m tapping out on this one. I’m seriously not that invested in this. You’re right, he’s obviously a really chill, mellow guy and there is nothing within the invisible statute of limitations to suggest otherwise.

      • jinni says:

        @tealily: I didn’t say he was chilled and mellow. Just that there was no evidence that he was still going around wrecking rooms and fighting paps after those initial incidents. Unless of course you have heard of more incidents. But if you really want to tap out then fine, I guess this conversation is over.

  24. cakecakecake says:

    she’s probably still spending money from her Seacrest “shut up” settlement, LOL.

    Poor guy lost his mother, I know its hard for him…I have been there.

  25. Ana says:

    Maybe she was the blonde with Affleck in Miami last weekend ?

  26. tealily says:

    Don’t a lot of women buy themselves rings after they stop wearing their wedding ring? At least, I know several women who have. I wonder if that’s what’s going on. Anyway, I can imagine needing a little pick-me-up after filing for divorce. “Retail therapy” is a real thing.

    • Kitten says:

      Indeed but she could have easily had her assistant pick something up for her or order online.

      Or is the pap walk part of the therapeutic process? 😉

    • Dani says:

      I was thinking this too. I am not at all an Amber Heard fan but thinking about if I ever got divorced the first thing I would do is go buy jewelry, lingerie, and then some Ben and Jerry’s on the way home.

  27. Frosty says:

    On Johnny’s dime, im sure.

  30. Mira says:

    Ugh i can see her going after Jason Momoa. He seems just her type. Thankfully she doesn’t seem to be his type.

  31. BooBooLaRue says:

    I just can’t with the thumb ring and the denim on denim

  32. hogtowngooner says:

    The timing of these photos is strange, but it’s possible she was just purchasing a gift for someone else.

    Definitely called the paps to catch her doing it though. She’s too bland to be recognized outright.

  33. Kelly says:

    Given how Hollywood circles the wagons, how much do you think she has damaged what career she has? Directors and producers that would stay away?

    I would put money that Hollywood celebs will be pro Depp.

    I hope he gets his act together. I’ve always liked him since, sniffle, 21 Jump Street. Something about the guy.

  34. TheOtherSam says:

    She is entitled to get half of what he earned in the 15 months they were wed. That includes his Black Mass money, and possible back end income from the new Alice sequel? That latter will probably be some serious moolah.

    He filmed the recent Pirates installment last year. Depending on how that compensation contract is structured, can she claim that as marital income as well? If she didn’t at least sign an NDA when they wed, Depp will want to buy her silence from here out. Amber may make out very well financially from this brief situation.

    • Luca76 says:

      They also bought a new mansion too right? I think she’ll end up with a huge pile of cash. But Johnny only has his own damn self to blame for being that idiotic.

      • Dingding says:

        Define “huge”?

        When Heather Mills split from Paul McCartney she got something around Pounds 24 mio. And she has a daughter with him. McCartney is worth a few hundred million. She didn’t get that much because she overplayed her hand.

        We will see what Heard will get.

  35. anon1 says:

    Now I wonder if Johnny’s heavy drinking is due in part to an unhappy marriage. I would think that a family’s open disapproval of a spouse and the bickering between a spouse and family could cause some of this to happen.

    • Luca76 says:

      I don’t blame that on Amber. I suspect he’s been in this shape for a while but while he was with Vanessa and mostly living in their mansion in France it wasn’t obvious to the public . From the old interviews he gave that time he described himself as a hermit but I’d guess he mostly spent his time between films hiding away getting blasted on whatever (booze/heroin?) in private on their island Marlon Brando style. I think Vanessa had her rules and he mostly followed them until Rum Diaries when he met Amber. Pretty much to the day from that shoot his hotness faded. I also believe that People story that for a while he was shtupping everything in his sights but Amber is an opportunist. Vanessa had rules, Amber didn’t and she was younger and willing to stroke his ego while it served her.

      • Dingding says:

        @ Luca76

        I agree. She was the younger one without the rules and that was appealing to a man in a longer relationship. She is a golddigger. But I want to see how far that will get her. She doesn’t have any money yet and her behaviour in divorce isn’t exactly smart: serving divorce papers in the same week you ex’s mother died? Shopping spree at Tiffany’s?
        Thinking about it: her behaviour during the marriage wasn’t smart either: illegally bringing dogs to Australia? She was lucky Depp stood by her side during that one.

      • mary simon says:

        Around the time the fourth Pirates movie was released – 2011 – a young woman who played a mermaid in the film sold a story to one of the rags – I think it was the Enquirer – saying she had been approached by Johnny’s assistant (or makeup artist) who tried to set up an ongoing “arrangement” between her and Johnny, allegedly at Johnny’s request. The story was weird but believable and involved – the assistant said Johnny was very shy, which was why Johnny did not approach her himself. The arrangement would be that she would be hired as an assistant to his make-up artist and would travel with Johnny’s crew as he promoted the film, and possibly continue on the set of the next film. She was told that with Johnny being so shy and all, the two of them would not have any public interaction with each other and the assistant would arrange all of her secret “meetings” with Johnny, and what a wonderful opportunity this would be for her to travel the world on the promotional tour. No one else picked up the story, which I am pretty sure was the front page story, and it was quickly scrubbed and dropped. I remember being shocked because this was during the period when VannJohnny was being heavily promoted as a great love affair and they appeared to be on the brink of marriage. Just wondering if anyone else remembers this blip on the radar?

  36. Skins says:

    Probably nobody even recognized her

  37. Izzy says:

    Dumb move if it’s not a gift for someone else. My cousin’s ex did a shopping binge during their (very acrimonious) divorce, and spent $250,000 in four months. The judge ultimately took it out of her settlement. Expensive lesson to learn. Laura Wasser’s no idiot, she’ll start poring over financials to see what else Amber has “treated herself to.”

  38. elns says:

    I’m glad this dumb is done. Nostalgia for Johnny was already waning when he took up with this broad and was doing the whole Pirates of the Caribbean look 24/7 but when they threw that poop fit over their dogs in Australia with absolutely no regard for their dog / health policy, I was pretty mortified.

    She’s never given me good vibes. I think she enabled his entitled behavior and then when she realized that instead of parlaying her relationship to lucrative and esteemed work she was going down with the laughingstock ship she jumped like that diving board was on fire.

    I have no basis for my perception of her self-serving ways just the usual superficial daydreams and observations. I base my theories of midlife lost boy crisis for Johnny on the end of his marriage (however that really went down) and marrying someone so in a different place in their life. (Ingenue my ass) and REALLY POOR GROWN CELEBRITY MAN FASHION CHOICES.

    I’m just sayin’.

      EXACTLY!!! I agree 100%! I honestly believe When she met Johnny he was one of the hottest men in Hollywood and now the only thing that’s really keeping him from being a complete laughingstock is his long career and good will he’s built up over the decades. Everyone’s seen his slow descent while he’s been with her, she’s getting out of dodge as soon as she can (in her mind) before he does something embarrassing enough to hurt her career.

    I hope Johnny Depp gets help for whatever issues he has. He has always seemed (in interviews and premieres) like a decent man to me- he just chooses to make stupid movies.

  41. Dingding says:

    Is it wise pr-wise to come out of an expensive jewelry store just after filing for divorce just after your soon-to-be-ex husband’s mother has died?

    @ #37 Izzy
    Exactly my thoughts. If she does the big spender right now then this will not be good for her divorce settlement. It just looks too much like gold digger and not enough
    sad-that-the-marriage-failed, behaving decently for divorce responsible-adult.

  42. Loganski says:

    A Canadian band, “The Northern Pikes”, had a song out years ago with the line “she ain’t pretty, she just looks that way”. Thats what I think of her.

  43. what's inside says:

    Yes, I think she needed retail therapy to help with the utter loss of soul and the deep dark depression she is undergoing with the demise of her relationship with the great love of her life…..

    Do you think a chunky diamond tennis bracelet might help salve the wounds? Or maybe a pair of awesome earrings? No wait, how about that enormous ring over there? Yes, yes, feeling better now.

  44. iheartgossip says:

    Her out of bounds ego may have just ruined her ‘career’. People LOVE Johnny and won’t cut her an inch of slack.

    Holy jesus
    Even if J had serious issues, Amber must have realized that everyone is going to think she is one heartless b*tch..or is she that dumb? Were her publicist, manager etc paid off by J to ill-advise her this way??
    (And to be honest, I do like her, but just can’t figure out what she’s thinking)

  47. Itsme says:

    I hope Jonny’s gonna be ok. He seems fragile to me. And he was really into Amber obviously , leaving his family to start a life with her. Hopefully he and Vanessa are still close and she’s there for him as he mourns his mother’s death.

  48. InsertNameHere says:

    Tiffany’s quarterlies were quite bad, so I wouldn’t discount the possibility of a planned promo strut. Just sayin’.

  49. rugonnaeathat says:

    Unfortunately, he asked for it. He was blinded (didn’t see the real snake) by her youth and beauty, chased her down until she caved.

    Soon after they married is when Depp started letting himself go. He looks like crap. I think her toxic games took the best of him…not even sure if he finally realized the mistake he made. I’m sure because he crushed on her so hard….he turned into one jealous fool……

    Hope he heals from his mistake sooner, rather then later.
