Aqua-woman’s siren song to lure pirate to TV

AMBER Heard wants Johnny Depp to sit down . . . with Savannah. Heard’s team defended her right to continue to speak up against her exhusband, despite a jury finding she had defamed him in the press and owes him millions as a result. “If Mr. Depp or his team have a problem with this, we recommend that Johnny himself sit down with Savannah Guthrie for an hour and answer all her questions,” a spokesperson for the “Aquaman” actress told Page Six. Heard’s interview with NBC News’ Guthrie had been airing in parts all week on “Today” and aired in full on “Dateline” last night. In clips, Heard has confessed she still “loves” the “Pirates of the Caribbean” star and finds him to be a “fantastic” actor, but she maintains she will stand by every word of her testimony until her “dying day.” “As I testified on the stand . . . when your life is at risk, not only will you take the blame for things that you shouldn’t take the blame for, but when you’re in an abusive dynamic, psychologically, emotionally and physically, you don’t have the resources that, say, you or I do, with the luxury of saying, ‘Hey, this is black and white,’ ” she told Guthrie. Depp, 59, sued Heard, 36, over those exact implications — that he abused her — she made in a 2018 Washington Post op-ed. She wrote, “I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture’s wrath. That has to change.” On June 1, the jury awarded Depp $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages, and ruled that Heard was owed $2 million in compensatory damages in a countersuit she filed, reports The Post’s Eileen Reslen.
