Ex-wife’s Avengers get their revenge
NICKNAMED ‘ Amber’s Avengers’, a phalanx of formidable women accompanied Miss Heard on her visits to the High Court...
The cancer-stricken lover
BIANCA Butti, an actress herself, has been dating Miss Heard since January. After court sessions finished, the couple would stroll to tourist hotspots ranging from Oxford Street to the House of Commons. Miss Butti, 38, has also worked in Hollywood as a set designer and filmmaker. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015, with the disease returning last year.
The hard-partying sister
WHITNEY Henriquez had a ringside seat to her sister’s marriage and was called on as a witness in court. The 32-year-old partied with her sister at a Mayfair club until 1.40am during the first week of the case.
The award-winning lawyer
SASHA Wass QC boasts almost forty years of experience, and was named Criminal Silk of the Year in 2015. Known for her attention to detail and relentless crossexaminations, she also featured on a recent list of Britain’s best female lawyers, described as The Fearsome 13. The 62-year-old, who has a fondness for wearing leather boots in court and a reputedly photographic memory, rose to prominence as lead prosecutor for the trial of Rolf Harris, who was jailed for a string of sex assaults in 2014.
The Clooneys’ pal
JENNIFER Robinson’s figure-hugging outfits provided a stark contrast to her client’s demure courtroom attire. A bridesmaid at George and Amal Clooney’s Venice wedding, the 3 -year-old daughter of a New South Wales racehorse trainer came to Britain to study at Balliol College, Oxford. An avowed Corbynista, she hit headlines after she was photographed embracing then-married Labour spin doctor Seumas Milne in 2017. Mr Milne’s wife of 26 years filed for divorce soon afterwards.
