One of the most awaited high profile verdicts in Hollywood couple Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's six-week-long defamation trial was announced a day back, with the latter winning the case. The verdict found that Depp had been defamed by three statements in an op-ed written by Heard in which she said she was an abuse victim. The jury awarded him more than $10 million. But jurors also concluded that Heard was defamed by a lawyer for Depp who accused her of creating a detailed hoax surrounding the abuse allegations. She was awarded $2 million, as per the PTI report. On the other hand, Heard expressed disappointment over the verdict, saying she is 'heartbroken'. Take a look at their first photos soon after the verdict was announced:

According to PTI, Depp had hoped the libel lawsuit would help restore his reputation. However, legal and entertainment experts said that both actors' reputations have been damaged by ugly details about their brief marriage that came out during the televised trial watched by millions.
