Actor Amber Heard will soon sign a deal to write a ‘tell all’ book, weeks after losing the defamation case against her ex-husband, actor Johnny Depp. As per a new report, Amber is opting to take up the project as she is ‘broke’ and considers that her ‘career in Hollywood‘ is over. Author-lawyer Dror Bikel has said that Amber should be ‘extremely careful’ as Johnny’s lawyers will ‘be reading and listening to everything’. Dror added that if Amber ‘crosses the line’, she will face ‘another defamation suit’. Recently, Amber faced a six-week-long trial in Fairfax County, Virginia. A seven-person jury reached a verdict on June 1, deciding that Johnny proved that Amber defamed him in a 2018 op-ed. The jury awarded Johnny $15 million in damages but Amber will only have to pay $10.35 million due to a Virginia law limiting punitive damages (the judge reduced the amount). In her countersuit, Amber won one of the three defamation counts and was awarded $2 million in damages. OK Magazine quoted a source saying about the book deal, “Amber considers her career in Hollywood over. She’s already in talks and is excited about it. At this point, she has nothing to lose and wants to tell all.” Source: HT
