Speaking in an interview with the Times, Bonham Carter said she felt that Rowling had ‘been hounded’ for her opinions and the actor had been ‘completely vindicated’

“I think he’s fine now,” said Bonham Carter. “Totally fine.”

Asked whether she felt the decision of the Virginia jury to award Depp $15m in the suit was a sign of the #MeToo pendulum swinging back, Bonham Carter said: “My view is that [Heard] got on that pendulum. That’s the problem with these things – that people will jump on the bandwagon because it’s the trend and to be the poster girl for it.”

Yes. She's horrendous.

The internalizing misogyny in the USA is crazy

The psychiatrists did it. Did she say that? And they didn't print it! Oh. The horror at the court case had eye-lid implants (you know transmitters!) Australia had to watch the smuggling of that which might be concealment for BroadUltraVires & dangerous territory & costume.

JKRowling4Real & Depp have been victims of Villain Journalism. Both used to drive policy. Neither are perfect but the absolute BS printed about both is dispiriting. Amber Heard was incredibly abusive - to all her partners. Silence from the guardian.

Good for her, sticking up for friends when it’s not the pc thing to do

Yikes
