Johnny Depp is ready and confident to face a new round of legal battles with his ex-wife because he knew Amber Heard would not keep quiet after losing the defamation suit.
A Hollywood source has revealed that Depp is aware of Heard's motives and his nature, adding that he knows she will leave no chance to substantiate her claims about the actor.
However, Depp's lawyers are confident and ready to give a befitting reply to the actress, who leaves no stone unturned to substantiate her claims about the actor.
The actor's rep says: "The verdict speaks for itself, and Depp believes it's time for both parties to move on with their lives and be okay. But if Heard appeals the verdict, further litigation will be required." If determined to pursue, Depp is filing a concurrent appeal to ensure that the full record and all legal issues are considered by the Court of Appeal."
Depp, 99, has filed a notice of appeal in the Virginia Court of Appeals, a day after his ex-wife Amber Heard filed herself against the outcome of the multimillion-dollar defamation case.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star, who emerged victorious in the trial, also came out on top of public opinion and garnered overwhelming support from fans' friends and movie stars, which may be even more important to his future life and career.
First, a legal expert said: Winning the legal side of a defamation claim doesn't matter to Depp. This would be just the icing on the cake for him because his main goal of filing a defamation suit was to clear his name and appeal in a court of public opinion.
It's undeniable that people on social media support Johnny Depp, even though Amber Heard tried to give the impression that his defeat would be the defeat of all women.
Breaking her silence after losing Johnny Depp's trial, Amber Heard said: 'She understands why the jury believed in Johnny Depp, describing her as "a beloved character" that people "feel like" that they know", and "a brilliant actor" – and that he was portrayed as "unreliable" during the court case.
