It's been less that a day since news broke that Johnny Depp and Amber Heard are divorcing. The 30-year-old "Danish Girl" actress cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split, which comes after only 15 months of marriage. Heard filed the divorce petition on Monday, May 23, just days after Depp's mother died.
On Friday, the actress was spotted shopping at Tiffany's after legal documents showed she was filing for spousal support from her 52-year-old husband. Depp filed a reply to the divorce petition denying her request on May 25, according to legal documents seen by The Huffington Post.
Sources tell TMZ that the couple had no prenuptial agreement, which could spell trouble for Depp's reported $400 million net worth. The actor typically commands around $20 million per picture. Heard allegedly has $4 to 10 million to her name. Without a prenup, the actress could get half of Depp's fortune under California's "community property" rule, which is when judges simply divide the couple's joint assets in half.
There are multiple rumors floating around as to why the couple split. Sources told TMZ that Depp's family wasn't fond of Heard, including Depp's late mother. Others allege it was the actress' terrible temper, which Heard herself talked about in a 2014 interview with W magazine.
“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 said. "But I'd always rather be passionate than bland. I can't imagine living a quiet life."
One thing is for sure: this divorce doesn't seem like it'll be quiet. Though you might still be mourning the end of the couple's marriage, at least their horrendous dog apology video will live on forever:
