LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: After his legal victory in his defamation case against Amber Heard last year, Johnny Depp's previous sentiments toward his ex-wife have come to light. In the past, Depp, who turned 60 on June 9, spoke affectionately about Heard, considering himself fortunate to have her by his side.
During their happier times, Depp, known for his prominent role in the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' franchise and being one of Hollywood's highest-paid actors, spared no expense in showering extravagant gifts upon Heard. At the pinnacle of his career, their relationship seemed unbreakable until Heard filed for divorce after a mere 15 months, citing allegations of domestic violence.
An extravagant engagement ring
Depp's proposal to Amber Heard was a grand gesture, highlighted by an extravagant engagement ring worth a staggering $100K. The stunning five-carat diamond ring, featuring intricate scrollwork, was presented to his then-27-year-old girlfriend in January 2014.
Depp once described Heard as a "sharp, sweet, and wonderful girl—a true southern belle" who brought "immense joy" to his life.
A customized $150K 1968 Ford Mustang
Knowing Heard's love for muscle cars, Depp went above and beyond, spending an impressive $150K to customize her beloved 1968 Ford Mustang. He even orchestrated a playful prank, making Heard believe the car had been stolen, only to surprise her with a meticulously restored vehicle featuring a striking cherry red paint job.
$50K diamond drop earrings
To demonstrate his love and adoration during Christmas, Depp indulged in a $50K purchase of Neil Lane diamond drop earrings as a surprise gift for Heard in 2013. His gestures of affection continued as he sought out a rare limited-edition Ernest Hemingway book, 'In Our Time', for a substantial sum of $155K, honoring her passion for literature on her 28th birthday.
Extraordinary yacht worth $33M
In celebration of their wedding, Depp bestowed a remarkable gift upon Heard by renaming his beloved $33 million yacht. Originally named Vajoliroja, a combination of his previous girlfriend's name, his own, and their children's, he changed it to Amphitrite—a tribute to the Greek sea goddess and wife of Poseidon.
A Leonor Fini painting
Amidst claims of his extravagant spending, Depp acquired a Leonor Fini painting valued at $245K in 2017. Despite being labeled a star in crisis, the actor embraced a life of indulgence, investing his significant fortune in various luxurious possessions, including islands in the Bahamas, high monthly bills, and an expensive wine collection.
