The wait for fans wanting clarity on one of Hollywood’s most talked-about rumors is finally over. Cara Delevingne has publicly confirmed for the first time that she was in a romantic relationship with Amber Heard.
The British model and actress made the revelation during a recent episode of The Louis Theroux Podcast. She also shared a key detail about the timeline: the romance happened after Heard’s split from her ex-husband, Johnny Depp, contrary to what some people previously believed.
Her confirmation puts an end to nearly a decade of speculation that began around 2016. The rumors first emerged during the period when Heard filed for divorce from Depp.
Delevingne says Depp ‘Was Driven Crazy by Jealousy’
During the podcast interview, host Louis Theroux directly asked Delevingne about the rumors involving her, Heard, and Depp.
Theroux referenced claims that Depp was “driven crazy by the idea that Amber might be sleeping with you.” Delevingne opened up about the situation, sharing the backstory behind the jealousy.
“It’s because we did a movie together, and it was called London Fields. He was also doing the movie,” Delevingne explained. She clarified that Depp’s suspicions started when they were all working together on the film.
However, she made it clear that nothing romantic was happening between her and Heard at that time. “Nothing was happening at that point. Later, after they divorced, it had, I suppose,” she said.
The Accurate Timeline of the Romance
When Theroux pressed for a clearer explanation, Delevingne became more direct. “No, I don’t suppose. I know,” she said.
The 33-year-old star confirmed that her relationship with Heard began after Depp and Heard’s marriage had ended. “We were close for a long time, and then when they were going through the divorce, yeah, we were entangled, I suppose,” she told Theroux.
Heard and Depp’s marriage timeline is well-documented. They were married in February 2015. In May 2016, Heard filed for divorce and obtained a temporary restraining order. Their divorce was officially finalized in 2017.
Delevingne confirmed that the famous rumor connecting her to Heard was true, but it happened after people initially expected.
Heard’s Other Relationships During That Time
Delevingne also mentioned that Heard was involved with other people during that same period. “But she was also entangled with other people,” she stated.
Theroux suggested one of those people was Elon Musk. Delevingne’s response was simple: “There you go.”
Heard and the Tesla founder reportedly started dating in 2016 after her split from Depp. Their relationship lasted until early 2018.
The Legal Battles That Followed
The relationship between Depp and Heard ended in a series of high-profile legal disputes. Depp sued Heard for $50 million in a defamation case. The case came after Heard wrote a 2018 opinion piece in The Washington Post about being a survivor of domestic abuse, although she never mentioned Depp by name.
Heard countersued for $100 million. The legal battle between the former couple was watched closely around the world. A jury later found both Depp and Heard liable for defamation. However, Depp received a larger damages award.
During the defamation trial, Depp’s legal team accused Heard of having affairs with both Delevingne and Musk while they were still married.
