TMZ confirmed the house was in fact Heard's after contacting the new owner, who said he had been in contact with her people, though never with her directly. The actor's investment in the property has certainly paid off– the value has nearly doubled and she's profiting about $480,000. That said, it's still a long way from the $15 million Depp is owed.
Heard has spoken about her disappointment with the verdict. In a statement after the decision was announced, she wrote, "The disappointment I feel today is beyond words. I'm heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband." She continued by describing the potential repercussions of the verdict, writing, "I’m even more disappointed with what this verdict means for other women. It is a setback. It sets back the clock to a time when a woman who spoke up and spoke out could be publicly shamed and humiliated. It sets back the idea that violence against women is to be taken seriously."
