Johnny Depp Wants Retrial In UK Libel Case Because Amber Heard’s Charitable Donation Was A 'Manipulative Lie'

Johnny Depp just won’t quit when it comes to this libel case. As you may know, the actor first went to court in the UK over a 2018 headline in the tabloid The Sun that described him as a “wife beater.” His legal team was tasked with proving the descriptor false, and long story short, they failed to do so.

A lot of damning evidence surfaced about both Johnny and Amber Heard, but ultimately the judge ruled that the claim was “substantially true.” Related: Amber Connects Johnny To Marilyn Manson Abuse Allegations Now, the 21 Jump Street alum has launched an appeal of the verdict, based heavily around the fact that his ex-wife didn’t actually donate her entire divorce settlement to charity, as she announced she would do.
