INDECENT PROPOSAL? Saudi man offers to marry Amber Heard after 'all doors close'
A Saudi man has offered to marry Amber Heard after she lost the defamation suit against ex-husband Johnny Depp. In a voice note sent to Heard's official Instagram account, the man is heard offering the American actress love and happiness.
The man is spotted DMing Heard many times in a screenshot shared by several Instagram accounts. He had sent a voice message to the actress, vowing to marry her, in addition to a few strange texts. The unidentified man expresses his wish to marry the 'Aquaman' actress in Arabic. “Amber… since all doors are closing on you, you have no one except me to take care of you. I’ve noticed that some people hate and bully you, therefore, I decided to marry you. May Allah bless us both. You are a blessing but people don’t appreciate that. I am better than that old man,” he says in the voice note. Heard has repeatedly claimed that Depp assaulted her numerous times throughout the course of their relationship, and that it generally happened while he was under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

The voice note quickly went popular on social media and has received approximately 100,000 views in around 14 hours.
Johnny Depp won a libel lawsuit against Heard on Wednesday after a jury determined that she had defamed the former 'Rum Diary' actor by claiming that he had harmed her during their relationship. Johnny Depp was awarded $15 million in damages by the jury. Amber Heard also won a portion of her libel action as she was awarded $2 million in damages.
After several years of dating, Depp and Heard married in a secret ceremony at their Los Angeles home in 2015. On May 23, 2016, Heard filed for divorce from Depp and got a temporary restraining order against the Oscar-nominated actor. She said that Depp had physically mistreated her during their relationship and wrote a Washington Post Op-ed about her being a victim of domestic violence.
Depp sought $50 million in damages in response to the opinion piece in which she said she had become a "public figure representing domestic abuse." Although Depp was never addressed by name in the article, his attorneys contended it alluded to claims she made against him during their 2016 divorce.
