Read our privacy policy Amber Heard fears Johnny Depp could sue her for defamation again, she told NBC’s Savannah Guthrie. “Which is what I guess a defamation lawsuit is meant to do, it’s meant to take your voice.” Of the claims she made that sparked her legal battle with Mr Depp, she added: “I took for granted what I assumed was my right to speak.” Ms Heard reiterated that The Washington Post op-ed at the heart of Mr Depp’s lawsuit against her was “not about Johnny”. If you’ve just ever loved anyone, it should be easy.” The second instalment of Ms Heard’s interview came exactly two weeks after a jury found overwhelmingly in favour of Mr Depp in the couple’s defamation trial following six weeks of explosive testimony on their tumultuous relationship. In the interview aired Wednesday, Ms Guthrie referenced a text brought up at trial in which Mr Depp promised “global humiliation” for Ms Heard.
