Amber Heard: I stopped multi-million donations due to Depp lawsuit - Insider

But an ACLU executive testified earlier in the trial that the organization never received the full $3.5 million it was promised and that about half the donations it received in Heard's name came from Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla who Heard dated after her breakup with Depp.

Heard said on the stand Monday that she still plans to donate all of the money she promised but that Depp's lawsuit — which demands up to $50 million in damages —  got in the way.

On the witness stand Monday in the Fairfax County, Virginia courthouse, Heard said that she "promised the entirety of it to charity because I was never interested in Johnny's money." She said she selected the ACLU as an organization for funds because she believed in its mission, and the Children's Hospital because she had volunteered there for more than a decade and knew it could use the funds.
