Amber Heard has spoken out in public in her first interview since the verdict of the Johnny Depp trial, which concluded with the jury members siding with her ex-husband.

NBC News reported that Heard had a sit-down interview with Savannah Guthrie with its "TODAY" show. The Aquaman actress said that she does not "blame them," referring to the jury and their verdict.

Heard noted that she actually understands, describing Depp as a beloved character and people "feel they know him."

She also called the social media craze surrounding her case "unfair" with many posts on TikTok and Twitter showing favor over Depp amid the six-week trial.

Heard said that she does not presume the "average person should know those things," and that she does not take it personally. However, she added that one cannot tell her that they think the social media representation of the case has been fair.

Depp has not yet done a formal interview about the case after the verdict was released. However, he said that the verdict "gave me my life back."

Meanwhile, Heard said in a statement after the verdict that she was heartbroken.

Amber Heard's Lawyer

Amber Heard's lawyer, Elaine Bredehoft, said that the actress was "demonized" throughout the defamation trial against Depp while blaming the social media campaign against her for influencing the jury's decision on the verdict.

The Rolling Stone noted that Bredehoft said that much of Heard's evidence was "suppressed" while Depp's legal team placed a number of things "that should not have been allowed, and it caused the jury to be confused."

The Heard lawyer added that it was because Heard was "demonize," with the verdict sending a "horrible message" to people who claim to have suffered physical and mental abuse.

Bredehoft added that unless one pulls out their phone and video their spouse or their significant other beating them, "effectively you won't be believed."

She added that there is no way that jury members could not have been influenced by it, referring to the campaign of viral videos that attacked the actress on social media platforms.

Heard was ordered to pay $10 million in compensatory damages, while the jury awarded $5 million in punitive damages, which was reduced to $350,000. It is the most allowed by Virginia law.

Bredehoft said that her client was "absolutely not" able to pay the amount and would likely appeal the verdict.

Amber Heard-Johnny Depp Trial

Jurors found both Depp and Heard liable for defamation against each other in a verdict.

The jury found that Heard's statement was false and made with "actual malice" against her ex-husband, referring to a 2018 Washington Post op-ed.

The jury also found Depp liable for defamation against Heard when one of his attorneys claimed her allegations of sexual abuse were a hoax, according to an Insider report.

The jury awarded Heard $2 million in compensatory damages and $0 in punitive damages.

Depp brought the lawsuit in 2019, alleging that it was Heard who was the real abuser in their relationship.

He asked for $50 million in damages at the time. Heard countersued and alleged Depp beat her in about a dozen incidents, wherein she asked for $100 million in damages.
