Johnny Depp and Amber Heard have decided to part ways after nearly 16 months of marriage, according to reports.
According to TMZ, Heard cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for her May 23rd filing.
Depp and Heard began dating in 2011 when the pair met on the set of “The Rum Diary” and would later marry in two ceremonies—once at their West Hollywood home, and then again in a beach ceremony in the Bahamas, both in February, 2015.
Heard has spoken publicly about her qualms with marriage, and her fears of losing her identity.
“I have a fiercely independent spirit—the thing that really scares me is the potential of losing my freedom. I never want for my life to lose the ability to transverse the world, with freedom and ease. The freedom and ease I have worked so hard to acquire for myself,” said Heard in the July 2015 issue of Elle magazine.
