From April to June 2022, Amber Heard and Johnny Depp starred in a media defamation trial, after the Pirates of the Caribbean star sued Heard over a publication in The Washington Post in 2018. After a lengthy legal battle, the Court found Aquaman actress guilty. Since then, she has kept a low profile.
For about six weeks, a jury in Fairfax, Virginia, found that Amber Heard had defamed her ex-husband Johnny Depp by describing himself as “a figure who represents domestic abuse” in a 2018 op-ed she published in The Washington Post.
The actress was sentenced to pay Depp more than $10 million in compensatory damages. While the actor was sentenced to pay Heard US $ 2 million in damages, since one of her lawyers would have defamed her. However, weeks after her ruling, the interpreter in Never Surrender and Hell at the Wheel announced that she did not have the financial solvency to pay her ex-partner.
In December of the same year, Heard announced through a statement published on her social networks that she had reached an agreement with her ex-husband, however, she did not reveal details. The actress herself said that she would drop her appeal to the damages that had ordered her to pay the US$10 million to Depp, because she was not able to face another trial.
The new life of Amber Heard
Months after the mediatic legal battle, Amber Heard decided to keep a low profile and not attract the attention of her public or the media. For this reason, she preferred to call herself Martha Jane Cannary and start a new life outside the United States with her daughter Oonagh Paige.
The international press detailed in September 2022 that Heard had settled in Spain and rented a house in Costitx, a town of about 1,300 inhabitants. Then, for a while, the actress took refuge in her house located in the Mojave desert, California. However, she reportedly sold this $1.7 million dollar home for double what she had paid for it three years earlier, according to TMZ.

In recent weeks, the actress has been seen walking the streets of the city, on her way to the park with her two-year-old daughter and in a museum learning about the work of the artist Joaquín Sorolla, reports Hola!

According to EFE, the protagonist of Aquaman lives in one of the Madrid neighborhoods preferred by the business, political and social sectors. Her house is an old chalet built in the capital of Spain in the second half of the 20th century, completely renovated. It has five rooms, plus a garden and a basement.
The objective of this move would be, according to the Spanish newspaper El Confidencial, to go unnoticed among her neighbors and achieve peace and happiness in Madrid, next to her daughter. For this reason, until now, she has been seen naturally in the neighborhood and doing activities aimed at the leisure of Oonagh Paige.

It is even rumored that she is looking for daycare so that the two-year-old girl will start attending soon.
