After part two of Heard’s exclusive interview with NBC News’ Savannah Guthrie, the actress said she “still loves” Depp. “I love him. I loved him with all my heart. Heard also said, “I have no ill feelings or ill will toward him at all. I know that can be difficult to understand or very easy to understand if you’ve ever loved someone.”
Heard continued to reflect on the public’s perception of her after Gutherie asked her for a text in which Depp promised her “total worldwide humiliation.” “I’m not a good victim, I understand. I’m not a sympathetic victim, I’m not a perfect victim. But when I testified, I asked the jury to see me and hear their own words, which is a promise to do so.”
“I’m afraid whatever I do, say what I say and say it how I say it, every step I take will be another opportunity for that kind of silence,” Amber Heard said in response to Guthrie’s question about whether she cared that Depp might sue her again in the future. “I guess what a defamation lawsuit is all about: taking your voice away.”
