Amber Heard Is Too 'Broke' To Pay Johnny Depp The $10.4 Million She Owes Him

The Johnny Depp versus Amber Heard trial is over (*Sad Emoji*), but that doesn’t mean the two aren’t still in the news.

This trial. It is the gift that keeps on giving.

I could have guessed this information — I think we ALL could have guessed this shocking news.

Amber doesn’t have the $10.4 million she owes Johnny Depp after the jury found in his favor at the defamation trial heard ’round the world.

Want to see something kinda funny. I guess I shouldn’t laugh at her expense. But, one quick Google search for “How Much Is Amber Heard Worth” brings up the Celebrity Net Worth website.

They estimate that Amber’s value is -$6 million. Yes, that says NEGATIVE $6 million.

Seriously, karma is a b****, so I really shouldn’t be so elated to see this number. But, you have to admit. It’s kinda funny.

As sources told The [New York] Post the actress is “broke” due to hefty legal fees associated with the bombshell defamation trial.

All I can think is: She should have thought of that before she dropped a big steaming pile of s*** in Johnny’s bed.

Is that still allegedly?

With her net worth being in a world of hurt, how the heck is she going to pay Johnny Depp the money she owes him?

Amber’s attorney, Elaine Bredehoft (you might remember her as the lawyer who just couldn’t seem to remember to turn her mic on), says that Amber absolutely does NOT have the means to pay the money she owes Johnny.

According to The New York Post, Amber’s money woes are not just from this case — although that’s a huge part of it.

One [source] also placed the blame on Heard’s past lavish spending, on travel, clothes, gifts and wine.

I feel kind of bad for her — in a “there’s NO WAY she should have ever won that case” way.

Nobody ~~needs~~ ~~likes~~ deserves to be virtually destitute.

On the other hand, she did try to (do we say allegedly?) end Johnny’s career in one of the most horrible ways possible.

Multiple sources said the “Aquaman” star had to switch legal representation and is relying on her homeowner’s insurance policy to cover the cost of her current attorneys in the case.

It’s not uncommon for people to use their homeowner’s insurance to help cover defamation cases.

That’s kind of weird, isn’t it. Most people don’t know about this little insurance feature, but it’s a real thing.

It’s a little oddity that most people don’t know. In most homeowner insurance policies, there is coverage if you are sued for defamation based on how much you pay through coverage.

As for how she’s going to actually pay Johnny the money, there are several things that are possible in this situation.

We know she is going to appeal the decision, but as it stands now, she owes the money.

Depp could still potentially claim the money he was awarded by garnishing his ex-wife’s wages from her two upcoming movies, levy her assets or even seize her house in California’s Yucca Valley.

Amber owns a three-bedroom house — mansion, if you will — that has been valued at $1 million, and it’s possible that Johnny could have the property seized to get part of the money that he’s owed.
