Amber Heard and Johnny Depp‘s divorce continues to get ugly.
There are certain details that Johnny Depp wants kept between the two of them, on Friday he filed a request to make this happen.
There are rumors that Amber is refusing to sign the document, which puts a spanner in the works for Depp, whose reputation has already been hugely damaged by his public divorce.
According to People, Depp’s filing explains that “Amber’s need for financial information to resolve this case is distinct from the public’s appetite for celebrity divorce”.
“This case has been extraordinarily public since its inception”.
Johnny pointed out that media scrutiny of his break-up with Amber is intense, calling it ‘one of the most heavily publicized celebrity divorces in recent memory’.
The Pirates of the Caribbean star is now locked in a bitter divorce battle with the 30-year-old actress after she filed papers to end their 15-month marriage in May.
Johnny is reported to have earned whopping $30 million past year and Amber argued that she had the right to apply for up to $1 million a month in spousal support. Yet Amber has inexplicably refused to sign any agreement to maintain confidentiality in this action.
She also accuses Heard’s team of leaking stories of settlement talks to the media, referring to a story on June 10 in TMZ after both sides reached an informal agreement to prevent further media disclosures in the case.
Not only do they want the actress to keep her lips sealed, but they also want to monitor the information she’s given – claiming she’s even asked for records from Johnny’s bandmates Joe Perry, Alice Cooper, Duff McKagan, and Matt Sorum. Prior to that, Heard and Depp are still expected to face off in court August 15 during a hearing for the actor’s restraining order.
