Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's trial 'wasn't sordid or grim'

Johnny Depp and Amber Heard are "two troubled but fascinating human beings", according to the author of a new book. The 59-year-old actor and Amber, 37, were both involved in two high-profile court cases following their divorce in 2017 - but Nick Wallis insists he never found the trials to be "sordid or grim".

Nick - whose new book is called 'Depp v Heard: The Unreal Story' - told the Daily Mail newspaper: "I thought they were two troubled but fascinating human beings, trying to find their way in the world. "They went through an extraordinary process, played out on a global stage. " The two trials - the first of which was held in London and the second in Virginia - created headlines around the world, with lurid details being revealed about their turbulent relationship.

But Nick - who covered both trials exhaustively - insists it never became "sordid or grim" at any stage. Depp was awarded over $10 million in damages after suing his ex-wife over an op-ed that she wrote in 2018 about being a victim of domestic violence.

Camille Vasquez, the actor's lawyer, subsequently claimed that he was enjoying a "sense of peace" after winning his defamation case.
