Heard reportedly filed for divorce from Johnny just 15 months after they married, just days after Depp’s mum Betty Sue passed away.

People magazine, which said it had also obtained a copy of the petition, reported that Heard cited “irreconcilable differences”.

Heard, meanwhile, stepped out alone for a Tiffany & Co. shopping trip in an all-white getup Tuesday, a day after she filed for divorce. Heard has asked for spousal support.

The site also reports that the couple does not have a prenuptial agreement.

Soon-to-be-divorced film stars Amber Heard and Johnny Depp attend the 27th annual Palm Springs International Film Festival awards gala on January 2, 2016. They have no children together.

The odd 42-second clip was imposed by an Australian court after Heard was accused of smuggling the couple’s dogs Pistol and Boo into the country.

Heard and Depp made headlines previous year for illegally taking two Yorkshire Terriers to Australia, where Depp was filming for his movie “Pirates of the Caribbean”, as that breed of dogs is prohibited in Australia. She pleaded guilty to falsifying documents in April.

The couple married on February 3, 2015, at a ceremony at their Los Angeles home followed by a bigger wedding at Depp’s private island in the Bahamas. And the fact that she wants spousal support is just icing on the cake. At the time, Depp was still with his partner of 14 years, Vanessa Paradis, and he later stated that his relationship with Heard did not begin until after he and Paradis separated in 2012. The couple split in 1985, after two years.

However, Australia’s Deputy PM Barnaby Joyce had threatened to have the dogs put down, triggering a war of words with Depp that lasted for months.
