They also found she acted with "actual malice".
The jury awarded Depp $10m (£8m) in compensatory damages and $5m in punitive damages. Following the ruling, Depp said in a lengthy statement: "Six years ago, my life, the life of my children, the lives of those closest to me, and also, the lives of the people who for many, many years have supported and believed in me were forever changed."All in the blink of an eye."
He continued: "False, very serious and criminal allegations were levied at me via the media, which triggered an endless barrage of hateful content, although no charges were ever brought against me. It had already travelled around the world twice within a nanosecond and it had a seismic impact on my life and my career.
"Six years later, the jury gave me my life back. I am truly humbled." He added: "The best is yet to come and a new chapter has finally begun." https://www.instagram.com/p/CeRl1FwMmR6/ They also ruled that Heard's defamation claims against Johnny Depp were unproven. The jury's verdict had been scheduled to be read out at 20:00 GMT, but this was delayed after they failed to fill in the part of the paperwork in which they suggest compensatory and punitive damages. They had to then return to their quarters and complete this part of the paperwork. Related links:Explore more on these topics:
