‘Dirty Dancing’ star Jennifer Grey says Johnny Depp, Amber Heard’s defamation trial makes her 'insanely sad'

foxnews.com:

Jennifer Grey is heartbroken over the legal saga involving Johnny Depp and Amber Heard. The "Dirty Dancing" star, who previously dated the actor, opened up about her life and career in a new memoir titled "Out of the Corner." In it, she detailed her relationship with the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star, calling their union "a f---ing bonfire." "I have known him for 30 years," Grey, 62, told "Extra" host Rachel Lindsay on Monday. "I haven’t talked to him.

I haven’t seen him… The whole thing makes me insanely sad for everybody involved.These are people who are damaged and continuing to damage each other.

It’s sad. I don’t have an opinion, except it breaks my heart… I just knew him in a very different time." Depp is suing his ex-wife in Virginia for libel over an op-ed she wrote in December 2018 for The Washington Post describing herself as "a public figure representing domestic abuse." The article doesn’t mention the 58-year-old by name, but his lawyers say it defames him nevertheless because it’s a clear reference to the highly publicized allegations the 36-year-old made when she filed for divorce in 2016 and obtained a temporary restraining order against him.
