The legal turmoil of the actress eventually started when she accused Johnny Depp of domestic abuse in 2018 after which the Pirates of the Caribbean actor filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against her in 2019. Amber continued to press domestic abuse and violence charges on Johnny Depp while the latter claimed that it was Amber who had assaulted him. Things took an uglier turn when a leaked audio conversation also proved that Amber was hitting Johnny Depp at one point in time. While her legal battle with Johnny Depp took a turn after her stylist Samantha McMillen denied her claims of having black eyes because of Johnny Depp, during her appearance in the Late Late Show with James Corden in 2015.

According to reports, Heard and Depp met on the sets of 'The Rum Diary' in 2009 but started dating in 2012. They got married three years later in 2015 though they ended up getting divorced a year later. According to reports, the text messages obtained by a local media outlet suggest that Paige had explained to Depp that the reason behind Heard filing a restraining order against him was to protect herself from getting evicted from the couple's apartment.
