Amber Heard's Lawyer Denies Claim She's Blackmailing Johnny Depp

Amber Heard‘s lawyer is speaking out to deny the allegations that she is blackmailing her estranged husband Johnny Depp.

Doug Stanhope, a comedian who is one of Johnny‘s friends, wrote a guest column for TheWrap in which he claims that Amber was planning on leaving the actor and threatened “to lie about him publicly in any and every possible duplicitous way if he didn’t agree to her terms.”

Amber‘s lawyer Peter Sample says the “allegations against Ms. Heard are absolutely and unequivocally false.” The claim that she is blackmailing Johnny “has no basis in reality and is nothing but the typical celebrity muckraking for profit.”

The lawyer also told TheWrap that the claims against Amber are defamatory and “outrageous.”
