Elaine Bredehoft, Amber Heard’s attorney, took the stand on Friday to make her closing argument to the jury in the defamation case brought against her by ex-Johnny Depp, claiming that her client had paid her legal team upwards of $6 million in costs.

Bredehoft said in her statement to The New York Post that Heard had been compelled to spend more than $6 million in legal expenses to her lawyers in the six years after her divorce from Depp.

She also alleged that the Aquaman actress was unable to make the full $7 million donations she had promised to the ACLU and a children’s hospital following the divorce settlement because of the legal bills.

Heard has paid ‘extraordinarily costly’ legal bills since Depp sued her and ‘started a smear campaign against her,’ according to Bredehoft.

For the uninitiated, a former acquaintance of Heard’s sister, Whitney Henriquez, testified earlier this week that Heard failed to pay the $3.5 million pledged to the children’s hospital.

Witness Jennifer Howell acknowledged in a pre-recorded deposition that Tesla creator Elon Musk made a $250,000 gift to the charity Art of Elyseum on Heard’s behalf.

The Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles (CHLA), on the other hand, has yet to receive the $3.5 million pledged.
