Johnny Depp creates debut self-portrait in 'dark' and 'confusing' time

Johnny Depp has painted the emotions of recent years into a self-portrait and is offering the result for sale as a time-limited edition.

The actor began working on the piece, titled "Five," around 2021 in the midst of an explosive dispute with his ex-wife, Amber Heard, which played out in courtrooms on both sides of the Atlantic.

Judge rejects Amber Heard’s request to set aside Depp win

A Virginia judge on July 13 rejected an effort by actress Amber Heard to set aside the $10 million judgment awarded against her in favor of her ex-husband, Johnny Depp.

Depp won a defamation suit against Heard last month in a high-profile civil trial. Heard won a smaller, $2 million judgement on a counterclaim she filed against Depp.

Abuse accusations by ex-wife are ‘outlandish’

Actor Johnny Depp testified on May 25 at his defamation trial against his ex-wife Amber Heard that it has been "unimaginably brutal" to listen to her "outlandish" accusations of domestic abuse.

"No human being is perfect, certainly not, none of us, but I have never in my life committed sexual battery, physical abuse," the 58-year-old Depp said.
