Amber Heard is currently locked in a defamation trial with ex-husband Johnny Depp. The Aquaman actress was married to Depp from 2013 to 2016 and has since dated a number of people

Amber Heard's dating history before and after her marriage to Johnny Depp

The defamation trial of Amber Heard and Johnny Depp is continuing in Virginia, US, with Amber recently taking to the stand.

The current case involves a Washington Post op-ed from 2018, in which Amber said she had been a victim of domestic abuse, but Depp was not mentioned by name. The Aquaman actress then countersued for double the figure, the equivalent of just under £80 million.

The trial has dramatically increased interest in the personal lives of the pair among the public, as their relationship breakdown is broadcast live.

With that in mind, we take a look at Amber's love life and interests before she met Depp, and if she is dating anyone at the moment.

Amber has dated a number of people since her divorce from Johnny Depp in 2016, including the world's richest man Elon Musk.

An insider told US Weekly: 'Amber wants her independence and prefers being friends rather than romantically linked.'

Amber has also been linked to Cara Delevigne in 2016, but neither has ever confirmed the rumours. In a court hearing in 2020 former friend Josh Drew alleged Amber had an affair in the form of a threesome with Cara and Elon, denied by Musk and not commented on by Cara or Amber.

In 2018, Amber also dated art dealer Vito Schnabel in a short romance in May 2018, followed by director Andy Muschietti in May 2019.

More recently, Heard appears to have dated cinematographer Bianca Butti and they were pictured kissing outside a hotel in January 2020.

The two split in 2021 after just less than two years of dating.

Between 2008 and 2012, Amber Heard was in a relationship with artist and photographer Tasya Van Ree.

It wasn't until 2010 that Heard publicly came out as bisexual and at one point in the relationship, Amber is reported to have changed her surname to match Tasya's.

In 2009, Amber was arrested for allegedly grabbing and striking Van Ree's arm at an airport in Seattle. The prosecutor did not go ahead with the case and Tasya has since said the incident was 'misinterpreted'.

She said to US Magazine: 'Amber was wrongfully accused for an incident that was misinterpreted and over-sensationalized by two individuals in a power position.

'I recount hints of misogynistic attitudes toward us which later appeared to be homophobic when they found out we were domestic partners and not just ‘friends.’ Charges were quickly dropped and she was released moments later.'

'It’s disheartening that Amber’s integrity and story are being questioned yet again. Amber is a brilliant, honest and beautiful woman and I have the utmost respect for her. We shared 5 wonderful years together and remain close to this day.'
