Heard, 30, cited irreconcilable differences in court papers filed in Los Angeles Superior Court and is seeking spousal support from the Oscar-nominated actor.
The father-of-two is mourning the loss of his beloved mother Betty Sue Palmer, who died aged 81 after a long illness just three days before the divorce petition was filed. Heard, whose career has yet to match Depp’s, is rumored to be asking for spousal support.
Metro.co.uk have contacted reps for Depp and Heard for a comment.

Depp attended the Los Angeles premiere of his new film Alice Through The Looking Glass alone on Monday.
