United States – There are strong rumors that actress Amber Heard, 30, has started to date billionaire Elon Musk, 45, according to TMZ.

Musk is an engineer, inventor, and business manager, worth US$12.7 billion. He is the founder and CEO of SpaceX, Tesla Motors, SolarCity, co-chairman of OpenAI, co-founder of Zip2; and co-founder of PayPal. According to an unnamed “source”, Heard has spent the weekend at the Delano South Beach with Musk. One witness maintained he saw Musk entering Heard’s room at night and leave early morning. However, those close to both insist that they are just good friends. One of Musk’s representatives stated that he was in Florida “for a SpaceX rocket launch this weekend.”

Cape Cañaveral is three hours away from Miami, which means the two of them weren’t in their same beach together, nor Musk could have entered Heard’s room.

On the other hand, a source close to Heard said the actress was with her sister. A third source added that the two of them happened to be staying at the Delano.

A messy divorce

Amber Heard and Johnny Depp met on the set of 2011’s The Rum Diary. They went public on 2012 after Depp announced his split from Vanessa Paradis, his partner of 14 years with whom he has two children.

In 2015, Depp and Heard got married, and then, after just fifteen months, Head filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences and asking for spousal support of $50,000 a month.

However, over the course of time, the divorce proceedings have become messier and messier.

Heard has accused Depp of verbal a physical abuse, an effect of his “drug and alcohol problem”. The actress claimed the straw that broke the camel’s back was when Depp smashed his phone against her face, hitting her cheek and eye and then pulled her hair.

Cops were called to the couple’s house, but Heard declined to file a report.

Another allegation maintains that during Heard’s birthday party, Depp showed up drugged and drunk, and then threw a bottle of champagne at the wall and a wine glass at her.

Heard proceeded to file for a temporary restraining order which was granted. In the court, Depp’s legal team has tried to keep Heard’s witnesses from taking the stand at the hearing, alleging that a witness list was not provided to them beforehand.

The divorce became very public, with famous people taking a stand on either side. On June 3, Heard filed a defamation lawsuit against comedian Doug Stanhope after he wrote an article on May 29 that was published on TheWrap.com accusing her of manipulating and blackmailing Depp.

Heard has stated that she would donate all proceeds to a battered women’s shelter in Arizona.

On July 15, Depp’s legal team filed a request to obligate Heard to keep quiet regarding the divorce proceedings “to protect their privacy”. The next Court hearing will take place on September.
