Actress and model Cara Delevingne has confirmed that she and Amber Heard were romantically involved following Heard's divorce from Johnny Depp. In a candid interview on the latest episode of "The Louis Theroux Podcast," Delevingne addressed longstanding speculation about her relationship with Heard, setting the record straight about the timeline and nature of their connection.
No Romance During Depp Marriage
According to Delevingne, there was nothing romantic between her and Heard while they were working together on the 2018 film London Fields alongside Depp. Despite reports that Depp had grown jealous at the time, Delevingne insisted, "Nothing romantic was happening." She added that Depp was nonetheless "driven crazy by jealousy."
Delevingne explained that she and Heard had been close friends for years before things became more complicated. "We became entangled," she said, referring to the period after Heard's relationship with Depp had ended.
Other Relationships During That Time
During the interview, host Louis Theroux mentioned Elon Musk, who dated Heard on and off following her 2016 split from Depp. Delevingne appeared to confirm that Heard was seeing other people at the time, responding simply: "There you go."
Heard and Depp's highly publicized divorce eventually culminated in the widely watched 2022 defamation trial, which attracted global attention and detailed many aspects of their tumultuous relationship.
Warning from Harvey Weinstein
Elsewhere in the interview, Delevingne reflected on her own experiences with sexuality and life in Hollywood. She recalled being warned by disgraced former film producer Harvey Weinstein that openly identifying as gay would damage her acting career. According to Delevingne, Weinstein told her she would "never make it" in Hollywood if people believed she was gay, a warning she said influenced her thinking for years before she eventually embraced her sexuality publicly.
