MADRID, SPAIN: Amber Heard has notably stayed away from the spotlight ever since her legal drama with ex husband Johnny Depp. The actress has moved to Spain and has been focusing on her daughter Oonagh Paige amid reports that she's quitting Hollywood for good. The 'Aquaman' star, however, was bodyshamed after being spotted jogging in Madrid.
It's been nearly a year since Heard, 37, lost a defamation case against Depp, 59. The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star sued his ex-wife over a Washington Post op-ed she penned portraying herself has a domestic violence suvivor. However, she was eventually ordered to pay damages worth $10.35 million but eventually settled the case out of court for $1 million and left tinseltown.

New pictures obtained by the Daily Mail showed the actress enjoying a run on the streets of Madrid while wearing sports attire including a white tank top, dark gray leggings, and black tennis shoes. She completed the athletic look with a high ponytail and matching visor.
However, not long after the picture made rounds on social media, some felt it was a publicity stunt. "Amazing how she knows exactly where to look for the camera n 1 photographer just keeps getting shots," one tweeted.
"I need more pics out there... I have to call the papz again!" another quipped. "She's a joke - just more PR stunts. All she's looking for is another 15 minutes of fame," someone else added.
Heard appeared to have gained some weight and critics ended up bodyshaming her. "She needs to go on a few more of those runs by the look of it. #AmberHeard #WhoAteAllThePies," one wrote. "Did she gain weight over the few years?" another asked. "I think her body is evenly proportioned, but her face is showing her age now. It happens," someone else offered.
In April, a source close to the actress told People that she "couldn't wait to leave the US with her daughter" after the trial. "She has been living in Spain, where she gets more privacy. The trial was beyond stressful for her, and she just wanted to start fresh out of the country," the insider spilled. "She is excited about working and filming again. She was exhausted and disappointed about the trial. She felt she was mistreated." The source added, "This is all behind her now, though. She has new energy and is focused on things that she loves."
In November, before an out-of-court settlement was reached, a source told People that Heard was spending most of her time in Europe where she was "able to just be a mom there." The insider added, "The trial was exhausting for her. She missed her little girl. She is focused on raising her daughter. She spends every day with her girl. They stroll around, visit parks and enjoy family time."
