If there is one celebrity controversy that has been the highlight of mid-2022, the whole Johnny Depp-Amber Heard fiasco definitely takes the cake. The ex-couple, who has been married for less than two years, has decided to call it quits and got a divorce in 2016 because of irreconcilable differences, as Heard would say.

That wasn't the mere reason though, as Heard also filed a restraining order against Depp, surrounding the domestic violence allegations that were made. In the recent years after they filed their divorce, the two have kept accusing each other of physical violence that was done during the course of their relationship; and while both parties denied the claims,

The couple was once one of the best pairs in Hollywood, even sharing intimate kisses while on the red carpet. The two met on the set of the 2011 drama The Rum Diary, which started filming in 2009; Depp was still with Vanessa Paradis back then, married for 14 years with two children together, Lily-Rose Depp and Jack Depp.

A year after Depp's and Paradis's split, Depp and Heard were seen holding hands while attending a Rolling Stones concert in 2013. In early 2014, Heard was seen with an engagement ring, sparking rumors about the status of their relationship—and sure enough, the two had a civil ceremony early in 2015 at their mansion in Los Angeles, and went on to have a larger ceremony on Depp's private island in the Bahamas.

Sounds like a fairy-tale, right? Well, not exactly, evidently.

In 2022, the two are thrown once again into the public eye, still simmering in the aftermath of their toxic marriage. When Heard wrote an op-ed about her domestic violence experience for The Washington Post, the piece was widely considered to be about Depp, even if it did not mention his name; and so, Depp sued Heard for defamation and the trial was hugely publicized that people almost treated it as a TV show.

And because people just love drama and the case involves two actors, people on the Internet were quick to jump in and post their reactions online, in a way that the world of the Internet is most definitely good at: with tweets, posts, and memes. Now, without further ado, here are some of the most significant tweets and memes about the whole trial that just about sums up everything!

While we can't rule out that Depp isn't fully innocent and there may be instances that he also inflicted some harm upon Heard, the way Heard evidently faked her bruises and injuries, as well as continuously sprout out debunked lies seems like a strange way to act as a victim of domestic violence. All jokes aside, though, domestic violence should not be taken lightly; but one thing is for sure, the truth must always prevail.
