Amber Heard says she has no bad feelings toward Johnny Depp—but she's worried he might try to sue her for defamation again.
In the second part of her “Today” show interview with Savannah Guthrie, Heard said she "absolutely" still has love for the actor. She said, "I love him. I loved him with all my heart. And I tried the best I could to make a deeply broken relationship work and I couldn't."
She added: "I have no bad feelings or ill will towards him at all. I know that might be hard to understand or it might be really easy to understand if you've just ever loved anyone."
Asked if she felt nervous about what she could say following the defamation trial, Heard said, “I’m scared that no matter what I do, no matter what I say, or how I say it—every step that I take will present another opportunity for this sort of—silencing, which is what, I guess, a defamation lawsuit is meant to do.” She also spoke about the public perception of her, saying, "I'm not a good victim, I get it. I'm not a likeable victim, I'm not a perfect victim."
Heard added that although the jury found against her in the defamation trial, the Washington Post op-ed at the center of the case was not about her relationship with Depp. She said she was "loaning my voice to a bigger cultural conversation that we were having at the time."
Asked about her next steps, Heard said she plans to focus on being a full-time mother to her one-year-old daughter.
