COSTITIX, SPAIN: Fuelling rumours about a tiff between them, Hollywood star Amber Heard erased her Twitter handle in the wake of Elon Musk’s full acquisition of the micro-blogging platform.

The ‘Aquaman’ star's departure became public after her fans on November 1 realized that her Twitter handle had been deleted. The only thing left now on the star's Twitter page is just a message for users saying that her account doesn’t exist. However, it is not known if Musk’s takeover is the reason behind Heard’s exit or if she is just taking a break from social media.

However, the sudden departure of the star has ignited a number of theories on the Internet. Some theories are claiming that Musk himself was the one who decided to close the former Aquaman star's account. For the unreversed, the tiff between the Hollywood star and Tesla owner began when the duo parted away after dating each other for a short span of time in 2016.



 



 



 

According to KoiMoi, Amber Heard and Elon Musk began their relationship somewhere around December 2016. The duo dated for only a few months but were deeply involved in each other’s lives. It was also reported that Musk even helped Heard financially after her divorce from her ex-husband Johnny Depp. Confirming his alleged split from the actor, the business tycoon admitted he was “really in love.”

“I just broke up with my girlfriend. Well, she broke up with me more than I broke up with her. I think, I was really in love and it hurt bad.” Musk said during an interview with Rolling Stone. Anyway, some other rumors making rounds on social media are claiming that the hashtag #AmberHeardIsAMonster can be a possible reason why the ‘Rum Diary’ actress parted ways with Twitter. The actress has been receiving a ton of brutal backlash from users after her controversial trial against the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ star. Depp, 59, sued Heard, 36, for defamation after the publication of a 2018 Washington Post op-ed in which she called herself a victim of domestic abuse. A jury found that the piece was about the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ actor on June 1, and awarded him $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages.

The trial ignited an unimaginable amount of drama in the industry and resulted in Amber receiving a majority of the backlash as the toxic relationship between her and Depp full of violent episodes was dissected and analyzed in open court. To avoid the drama, the actress has reportedly shifted to Spain. Heard is reportedly living in the European nation with her one-year-old daughter Oonagh Paige Heard with her rumored girlfriend, Bianca Butti. Some reports also claimed that Amber has no plan of coming back to the US. “By moving somewhere like Spain, she hopes to reinvent herself, leave her money woes behind, and start fresh with her daughter. She can see herself living in Spain, where no one accuses her of being a conniving liar, but she won’t get away with trying to run from justice,” one industry insider told Koimoi.
