It’s only been nine months since Amber Heard and Johnny Depp got married, but it seems like the couple is the subject of a new breakup rumor every week.
Sources have claimed that Depp and Heard argue constantly.
Amber has been accused of making bizarre demands, such as forcing Depp to sell his yacht because it was named after his ex.
And of course, through it all, there have been rumblings that Heard only married Depp because he’s insanely wealthy from reprising his role as Captain Jack Sparrow 47,000 times.
In a new interview with Marie Claire, however, amber sets the record straight, clarifying that her relationship is stronger than ever and dismissing claims of gold-diggery:
“I try not to react to the horrible misrepresentation of our lives, but it is strange, and hard,” Amber says when asked about the tabloid rumors surrounding her relationship.
As for the rumors that she’s with Depp for his sweet Disney cash, Amber spews some nonsense about how she “respects” Johnny’s money, but doesn’t need it:
“You respect what it takes to earn [money], and it also gives you a certain resilience, because it minimizes this false notion that that’s what matters.
“I know that to not be true, and I know I’m fine without it. That’s why maybe I’m so independent. I never expect anyone to give me anything—the notion of someone supporting me would be absurd to me.”
Right. Look, Amber has a career of her own, and we’re sure she’s perfectly capable of supporting herself, but there’s a big difference between keeping a roof over your head and chillin’ on your own private island.
We ain’t saying she’s a gold-digger, but the eight-figure bank account probably made her and Johnny’s massive age difference seem a lot smaller.
