Depp v Heard: Actress’ loss of earnings ‘could be as high as $50m’
Sky News says Amber Heard’s loss of earnings could be as high as $50m due to negative statements made by Johnny Depp and his attorney, an industry expert has told her libel trial.
Entertainment industry expert Kathryn Arnold made the claim as it emerged British supermodel Kate Moss, who dated Depp in the 1990s, is expected to appear in court by videolink on Wednesday.
Depp is suing Heard over an article she wrote in the Washington Post in 2018, which his lawyers say falsely implies he physically and sexually abused her while they were together.
Heard is countersuing Depp for $100m (£80m).
Ms Arnold, who was being questioned by Heard’s legal team on Monday, used the example of “comparable actors” to measure what the 36-year-old’s career trajectory might have been without the negative statements made by Depp and his attorney Adam Waldman following the Hollywood couple’s split in 2016.
