Johnny Depp and Amber Heard might be one of Hollywood’s most famous exes. A year ago, the pair made the world ride a rollercoaster of emotions during their riveting trial, which included scandalous revelations and unexpected twists that kept the media and fans on the edge of their seats.

Their highly publicized legal battle took a dramatic turn in their lives and careers. Since then, all eyes have been fixated on their every move and everything that has unfolded after the verdict.

From Heard moving to another country with her daughter to Depp renovating multimillion-dollar contracts, find below a recap on how they have navigated their personal life and careers amidst the lingering controversy.

The life of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard one year after their jaw-dropping trial

The legal showdown began in 2022 in a Fairfax County courtroom in Virginia. Amber Heard took the stand on May 16, 2022, ready to face her ex-husband, Johnny Depp, in a high-stakes $50 million defamation trial.

The atmosphere was charged with tension and anticipation, opening a stage for a battle of words, reputations, and shattered dreams. Heard’s appearance in court was pivotal as she sought to defend herself against defamation claims stemming from a 2018 Washington Post op-ed. In that candid piece, she courageously identified herself as a survivor of domestic abuse.

Johnny Depp took the stand on April 19, marking the beginning of his fiery defense. Depp’s legal team, which included Camille Vasquez, Yarelyn Mena, Stephanie Calnan, Rebecca MacDowell, Jessica Meyers, and more partners of Brown Rudnick firm, meticulously presented evidence of the alleged abuse the actor received, painting a picture of a tumultuous relationship.

Heard’s lawyers, on the other hand, embarked on a strategy aimed at discrediting Depp by presenting text messages and recordings. Six weeks after each side strategically presented their arguments and counterarguments, the jury unanimously decided that Amber Heard defamed Johnny Depp on all three counts, saying he should be awarded $15 million.

The jury also favored Heard’s countersuit on one count, saying she should receive $2 million. The verdict was read before a packed courtroom, with news helicopters flying overhead and clusters of fans outside.

Deep continued living normally, and weeks after the trial, he was caught enjoying dinner at the Varanasi Indian restaurant in Birmingham, England, where he reportedly spent more than $62,000 (£50,000). Mohammed Hussain, operations director of Varanasi, revealed to Daily Mail that “money was no issue.”

The Pirates of the Caribbean star joined TikTok, quickly racking up nearly four million followers in his first day on the platform. In the caption of his first video on the app, he thanked his “treasured, loyal and unwavering” fans for their support throughout the highly-publicized trial.

During an NBC News Exclusive interview, Amber Heard revealed she still has love for her ex-husband, Johnny Depp. Speaking to TODAY’s Savannah Guthrie, the Aquaman actress said, “Absolutely. I love him. I loved him with all my heart.”

“I tried the best I could to make a deeply broken relationship work. And I couldn’t. I have no bad feelings or ill will towards him at all. I know that might be hard to understand or it might be really easy to understand, if you’ve just ever loved anyone, it should be easy,” she added.

Heard also told Guthrie she does not blame the jury for the verdict. “I don’t blame them. I actually understand. He’s a beloved character and people feel they know him. He’s a fantastic actor.”

Heard also told Guthrie: “I don’t care what one thinks about me or what judgments you want to make about what happened in the privacy of my own home, in my marriage, behind closed doors. I don’t presume the average person should know those things. And so I don’t take it personally. But even somebody who is sure I’m deserving of all this hate and vitriol, even if you think that I’m lying, you still couldn’t look me in the eye and tell me that you think on social media there’s been a fair representation. You cannot tell me that you think that this has been fair.”
