Amber Heard Talks Johnny Depp Romance

Amber Heard shares insight into love and life with Johnny Depp

Amber Heard is opening up about her personal life. Appearing in skin-baring lingerie on the cover of this month’s W Magazine, Heard is frank about her career, her high-profile love life and how she remains grounded.

“I haven’t noticed any change in my career,” she said, disregarding claims her romance with actor Johnny Depp has boosted her status in Hollywood.

But when it comes to their relationship out of the public eye, Heard remains “guarded,” choosing to speak more generally about how she’s handled relationships in the limelight.

“For better or worse, I’ve always had a love life that seemed particularly salacious to some people,” Heard, who is bisexual, said of her controversial romance with Depp, which she chose not to divulge in close detail as well as her four-year romance with female photographer Tasya van Ree.

“I’m not one to talk about my personal life as I prefer to keep that as private as possible.”

“There has been a lot of media attention surrounding my relationship. It’s been frustrating as I don’t label myself one way or another—I have had successful relationships with men and now a woman. I love who I love, it’s the person that matters,” Heard has said of past and present romantic relationships.

“I didn’t want to look like I was hiding anything. I’m not, and wasn’t ever, ashamed. I don’t imagine myself, my work, or my life, fitting into any kind of standardized path. In fact, the idea of there even being a standard freaks me out a lot.”

Despite the attention – positive and negative, Heard remains unfazed, insisting she is familiar with dealing with the public’s grievances, alluding to the controversy surrounding her relationship with Depp and van Rees. “Before, it was also seen as unconventional,” Heard said of the female romance.

Heard also divulged the lengths she will go to protect her private life from the tabloids, including sharing false stories with friends to see what gets leaked to the press, and no longer driving her beloved Mustang, which she built from scratch.

Despite the fascination with her personal life, Heard insists she remains true to herself—she regularly rides her horse, Arrow, in Los Angeles and she is incredibly close with her family, namely her father.

“He taught me a lot about animals, about cars, and about resilience,” she says of her dad. “That’s what happens when your father doesn’t have a son. I drew the line at learning about football. I had to rebel somehow.”

The combination of Heard’s tough gal ‘tude and her gorgeous looks is part of what has made her appealing to so many—including Depp, who has previously called Amber “a southern bell” who is “sharp as a tack.”

“Whenever my old friends meet someone I’m involved with romantically, they immediately warn them: ‘She may look refined, but when she’s angry, she can go trailer park really fast,’ ” Heard jokes to the mag. “But I’d always rather be passionate than bland. I can’t imagine living a quiet life.”

Depp and Heard first met in 2011 on the set of The Rum Diaries before getting engaged in January of 2014. They are reportedly set to wed later this year on Depp’s private island in The Bahamas.

Coffee advertisement stirs up controversy

LINGERIE COFFEE SHOPS ARE CAUSING A STIR AGAIN…

2ND BASE LINGERIE ESPRESSO IN THE SPOKANE VALLEY HAS

TWO LARGE SIGNS WITH A BARELY CLOTHED WOMAN ON IT

FOR ALL TO SEE.

KXLY’S ALLIE NORTON IS WORKING FOR YOU TONIGHT.

SHE HAS DETAILS ON SPRAGUE AVENUES CONTROVERSIAL BILLBOARD.

TAKE A DRIVE DOWN SPRAGUE AVENUE IN THE SPOKANE VALLEY.

NATS OF CARS GOING BY

AND YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF LOOKING AT THIS SIGN OUTSIDE

OF 2ND BASE LINGERIE ESPRESSO.

KXLY IS CHOOSING TO BLUR THE WOMAN ON THE SIGN.

TO DESCRIBE.

IT PORTRAYS A WOMAN.

WEARING NOTHING BUT A G-STRING AND SOME ANGEL WINGS.

BACKSIDE TO THE CAMERA.

AND HOLDING HER HAIR.

IT’S ONLY BEEN DISPLAYED SINCE LAST WEEK, BUT ALREADY

IT’S CAUSING OUTRAGE.

It’s completely unacceptable and I am offended.

SUSAN EVANS WAS EATING ACROSS THE STREET WITH HER

HUSBAND AND FOUR KIDS TODAY WHEN SHE FOUND HERSELF

FACE TO FACE WITH THE WOMAN ON IT.

SHE SAYS SOMETHING THAT GRAPHIC SHOULDN’T BE PUT IN

PEOPLE’S FACES.

This must be taken down.

THE SIGN IS BOTH IN FRONT AND TO THE REAR OF 2ND BASE

LINGERIE ESPRESSO.

BOTH SIGNS ARE ABOUT TEN FEET HIGH AND ARE COMPLETELY

VISABLE TO PEOPLE DRIVING BY.

It’s a busy street and a lot of families do drive

up and down it.

TAYLOR WALSDORF SAYS HE UNDERSTANDS IT’S ADVERTISING,

BUT THINKS THAT IT’S A LITTLE OVER THE TOP.

I think they could have
done a little bit better advertising

outdoor and that’s just my opinion.

JOEY JOHNSTON WHO WORKS ACROSS THE STREET SAYS HE

PERSONALLY DOESN’T HAVE A PROBLEM, BUT CAN SEE WHY

PEOPLE ARE UPSET.

This is a family resturaunt and this area, people

drive by all the time.

Like I said, I don’t have a problem with it, maybe

if it was just a little less revealing.

OTHERS SAID OFF CAMERA THAT IT’S NO WORSE THAN SOME

OF THE LINGERIE COMMERCIALS THAT RUN ON TV.

We reached out to the owner of 2nd Base Lingerie Espresso

and she declined to talk on camera.

She did say that the only problem she’s ran into is

the city saying the sign is too tall, so she’s currently

in the process of getting a permit for it.

SPOKANE VALLEY CITY COUNCIL PASSED AN ORDINANCE BACK

IN NOVEMBER THAT REQUIRES WORKERS TO COVER UP.

PER THE NEW MUNICIPAL CODE IN PUBLIC PLACES.

WOMEN CAN ONLY SHOW HALF OF THEIR BREAST.

WITH NO NIPPLE.

THE ONLY RESTRICTION FOR A PERSON’S BACKSIDE PROHIBITS

SHOWING THE ANUS.
