Amber Heard responds to claims of the pending donation of $7 million divorce settlement

Amber Heard is speaking out about Johnny Depp's legal team's claim that she hasn't donated the money from their divorce settlement to charities, as she promised she would in 2016. According to a new report by The Daily Mail, the Pirates of the Caribbean actor's lawyers say they intend to use the allegation as part of their efforts to appeal British High Court judge's decision in Depp's defamation case. In a statement, the Aquaman actress' attorney Elaine Bredehoft confirms her client has yet to fulfill the $7 million pledge she made to Children's Hospital Los Angeles and the American Civil Liberties Union, citing financial reasons. Following the decision, Depp was asked to exit his role as Grindelwald in the film Fantastic Beasts. While he's no longer starring in the Warner Bros. film, he will still likely receive the full salary for the project. Meanwhile, Depp is suing Heard for defamation in the court, arguing that the actress' allegations of domestic abuse in The Washington Post were all part of an "elaborate hoax."
