A move. Amber Heard’s house was on the market after reports that the Aquaman actress is broke. The Yuca Valley home sold for more than what Amber paid for in 2019.
The sale was first reported by TMZ when records obtained from Zillow showed that the property that belonged to Amber sold fo for nearly $1.1 million. Amber paid $570,000 for the Mojave Desert house in the early days of 2019. It sold for $1,050,000, with a closing date of July 18. The house was purchased in 2019 through an anonymous trust that reportedly is tied to Amber. According to The New York Post, New Jersey-based Rickard and Carol-Jeanette Jorgenson, who also own property in Nevada and are founders of Jorgensen & Company LLC, are the new owners.
The house sale comes directly after her trial against ex-husband Johnny Depp. The jury ordered Amber to pay Johnny $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages for a total of $15 million. Due to the cap on punitive damages under Virginia state law, Judge Penney Azcarate reduced Heard’s punitive damages from $5 million to $350,000. Johnny, for his part, was found guilty of one count of defamation against Heard by the jury and was ordered to pay her $2 million in compensatory damages and zero dollars in punitive damages for a total of $2 million. If Heard and Depp’s damages are netted against each other, Heard will have to pay Depp a total of $8.35 million in damages, accounting for the $2 million in compensatory damages he owes her.
Heard’s lawyer, Elaine Bredehoft, told Today on June 2, 2022, that her client can “absolutely not” afford to pay Depp the $10.35 million she owes Depp in damages. “Oh no. Absolutely not, “Bredehoft said when asked if Heard has the money to afford Depp’s
