Actors and ex-couple Johnny Depp and Amber Heard are currently involved in a legal tussle in Fairfax, Virginia which became the talk of the town in recent days. The Aquaman actor is being sued by Depp for implying he abused her in a 2018 op-ed. The hearing began on April 11, 2022, as Heard filed a counter case seeking $100 million from Depp. 

The high-profile defamation trial has divided social media into two parts and netizens' reactions are proof of it. A video is doing rounds on social media which sees Depp's fans greeting him with gifts outside the courtroom.
