Johnny Depp was awarded $15 million in damages after the jury found that he was defamed by his ex-wife Amber Heard in an op-ed she wrote in 2018 that was published by The Washington Post. The jury, however, found that Heard was also defamed by one of Depp's lawyers who called her allegations ''a hoax''. She was awarded $2 million. The outcome of the trial is a major legal victory for Depp.
