Amber Heard’s lawyer revealed on Thursday that her client can’t afford to pay the millions of dollars in damages after losing a defamation case against her ex-husband and Golden Globe-winning actor, Johnny Depp, saying she will “absolutely” appeal the case.

A 7-person jury in Virginia reached a verdict on Wednesday regarding Depp’s defamation lawsuit against ex-wife Heard. Jurors concluded that the 36-year-old “Aquaman” actress defamed her ex-husband when she wrote a 2018 opinion article for the Washington Post.
