Amber Heard’s ex-agent reveals she was “just filling space” with Elon Musk after Johnny Depp split
The defamation lawsuit that continues to pit Johnny Depp against Amber Heard keeps generating more intimate details coming to light and now it has emerged that the actress had a romantic relationship with mogul Elon Musk after her split with the Pirates of the Caribbean “just filling space” actor.
Christian Carino, a talent agent who once represented both Heard and Depp, made this revelation Wednesday when his pre-recorded March 11 deposition was played in a Fairfax, Va. courtroom.
What confessions did Heard make to Carino?
Carino talked about some confessions Heard made to him in August 2017, when the actress broke up with Musk and the agent asked her why she was “sad” if she wasn’t “in love with him to begin with,” and was “just filling space” after splitting with Depp.
“I hate that yet again a man let’s me fall on the spikes by myself. … Meaning, they are mad at me for leaving them and put things like this out there,” Heard texted Carino.
“You could avoid all this if you stopped dating ber-famous people. You can be with a big man who isn’t famous,” the agent answered her back.
About this text exchange, Carino mentioned that “I believe what I was saying was, ‘If you don’t like being in the press about your personal life, then don’t date people that are famous.”
Carino thought Heard was looking to reconcile with Depp
In the same messages Carino and Heard sent each other in 2017, she asked the agent to deliver letters to Depp and she even told him she missed the actor, which is why he thought she wanted a reconciliation.
“I don’t know how or where to start. There’s no way to begin. … Finally I am single, clear in my heart and mind. I just want him to know I love him and that I am sorry,” Heard told Carino.
“Elon and I had a beautiful relationship, and we have a beautiful friendship now, one that was based on our core values. Intellectual curiosity, ideas and conversation, a shared love for science. We just bonded on a lot of things that speak to who I am on the inside. I have so much respect for him,” Heard told The Hollywood Reporter in December 2018.
