SOLVED!
[Blind Gossip] Now that this actor/actress couple’s relationship is falling apart, a new contest is about to begin. In it, each contestant will try to throw the other under the bus!
The contest will start soon. This will not be a nice game. Nor will it be a fair game. Even though he is more of a mess than she, he has more money, more fans, and more influence with the press and within the industry. We’ve heard that his team is planning to launch negative articles about her on a regular basis. They will paint him as the innocent, lovable guy who is just trying to make movies, and her as the (gold-digging/ promiscuous/ lying/ cheating/opportunistic/ uncaring/ nagging/ drinking/ dr*g using) woman who is trying to destroy him.
Most of it won’t be true, but that doesn’t matter! As long as YOU think that he is the good guy and she is bad guy, that’s what matters! He wins.

Amber Heard has filed for divorce from Johnny Depp!
Although our original blind item was written a year ago, it might as well have been written yesterday because it shows two important things.
First, that the marriage was a disaster from the beginning. Secondly, that when things were bad between the two of them a year ago, his team was ready and willing to crush her.
Both of these things are as true today as they were a year ago.
Johnny Depp dated actress Vanessa Paradis for fourteen years and had two children with her but never married her. Heard was only 24 when she met Depp on a film set. Depp is 52 years old. He is much more famous than Heard. He is much wealthier. Yet, somehow, people find it easy to blame Heard for Depp’s failure to commit to Paradis. Really? It’s her fault that he didn’t marry his girlfriend after fourteen years?
People are also blaming Heard for Johnny Depp’s lack of sobriety. Depp is an addict. He has been for many, many years. Heard tried to keep him sober, including keeping him away from people who she knew enabled him, encouraging him to get counseling, and hiring a sober companion for him. He tried but failed to stay sober. Many people are blaming Heard for Depp’s lack of sobriety. Really? It’s her fault that this decades-long addict can’t stay sober?
Neither Depp’s lack of personal accountability nor facts will stop Depp’s team for blaming Heard for everything they can, no matter how ridiculous. We mentioned in the original blind that they were willing to portray her as a gold-digging/ promiscuous/ lying/ cheating/opportunistic/ uncaring/ nagging/ drinking/ drug user.
The stories have already started.
She is cold for filing just as his mom died. His family always hated her. His children always hated her.
She is a gold digger. She has no right to ask for alimony.
She was controlling. She tried to keep him isolated.
She is the reason he is no longer sober. She is the reason he looks bad and smells bad.
Amber Heard may not be a saint, but she is probably far from the villain that she will be portrayed as during this divorce. It will be interesting to see how far Depp’s team takes their character assassination… as well as whether or not Heard fights back with accusations of her own. She probably has plenty of dirt to spill!
Everybody got this one right, starting with MissTilley!
Kudos to DelilaMars for picking up on this clue: “We’ve HEARD that his team is planning to launch negative articles.”
Yeah, that was sneaky.

His “Alice” movie just came out and it doesn’t look like a hit. Maybe this is mostly a PR stunt to generate interest in the movie. The timing of her allegations their divorce seems too conveniently close to the movie’s opening.
Buckskinlady says
It would seem that Amber is rushing to make Depp look like the bad guy instead of the other way around. Accusing him of DV has already gained her sympathy and support even from those who otherwise supported Johnny Depp.

Why did she file when his mom died though? This was a really bad move on her part . Ifshe wants the public’s empathy, she lost it instantly by doing this. I agree with everything you posted though

Re the years spent with Vanessa Paradis, never heard of partnership?? Plenty of couples (in Europe) are commited partners and never marry, this does NOT mean we’re casual “friends”. Its just a different way to form your life.

I don’t think anyone would be surprised if subsatnce abuse reared it’s ugly head again. It was widely known that JD suffered that demon in the past, in his 20s. I thought it was the likely culprit behind his split with Vanessa.
As for the marriage. THAT part seemed odd. Depp like many unconventional types, did not seem to define his romantic commitment by rings and ceremonys. His image was never really based on mainstream fantasy. It was like he lost touch with his basic core…
bostonbratt says
This was the first actress/girlfriend that was out of his league , physically. He was always the better looking person in his relationships. I think her beauty and youth captivated him and he was afraid of losing her.
Whisper says
I don’t know about that. I think Moss, Paradis and another one I can’t think of- are gorgeous. A ton of women over decades have thought JD was super hot, he could have had his pick. I think too many people knew about his demons, his options were narrowing and he pannicked. If I had to guess he was doing well with VP for a long stretch (he even looked good thru his 40s) then slipped badly into his old ways for good.

Won;t be so easy. Depp spent the last year ruining his reputation
