Johnny Depp v. The Sun

Johnny Depp v. The Sun was a high-profile legal case in which actor Johnny Depp sued the British tabloid The Sun for libel over an article that labeled him a "wife beater." Depp claimed the article was false and harmed his reputation. The trial, held in 2020, included evidence from both sides about Depp's personal life and relationships, particularly with ex-wife Amber Heard. Ultimately, the court ruled in favor of The Sun, stating there was sufficient evidence to support the claims made in the article, affirming that Depp had assaulted Heard during their relationship.
