Amber Heard's Lawyer Responds to Johnny Depp's Claim That She Pocketed Divorce Money, Which She Promised to Donate

艾梅柏·希爾德/海後湄拉的律師迴應了約翰尼·德普，德普說她吞掉了之前答應捐出來的離婚費

A new report claims that Amber Heard has not delivered on the promise to donate her full $7 million divorce settlement from Johnny Depp to charity.

一份新的報告稱，艾梅柏沒有兌現將德普的700萬美元離婚費用全部捐給慈善機構的承諾。

The 34-year-old actress promised back in 2016 that she was going to donate $3.5 million to both Children’s Hospital Los Angeles and the American Civil Liberties Union.

這位34歲的女演員在2016年承諾，她將向洛杉磯兒童醫院和美國公民自由聯盟捐贈350萬美元。

Daily Mail has shared documents from CHLA that show Amber has only donated $100,000 so far to the organization, despite the charity reaching out to her in 2019 to ask if she still intended on delivering the remaining amount. The outlet says that Johnny‘s lawyers believe the promise to donate the money was a “sham.”

《每日郵報》分享了來自CHLA（洛杉磯兒童醫院和美國公民自由聯盟）的檔案，顯示艾梅柏迄今為止只向該組織捐贈了10萬美元，儘管該慈善機構在2019年向她尋求支援，詢問她是否仍打算交付剩餘款項。這家媒體說，德普的律師認為捐錢的承諾是一個“騙局”。

Now, Amber‘s lawyers are speaking out in response to the story.

現在，艾梅柏的律師們對此發表了迴應。

Amber‘s lawyers claim that Johnny‘s team planted the story with Daily Mail in hopes of helping in his efforts to get a new trial against The Sun as part of the “wife beater” case, which he previously lost.

“Mr. Depp’s effort to plant stories in the media criticizing Amber for not yet fulfilling all the donations she pledged to charity is yet another desperate attempt to divert attention from the UK Court’s findings relating to allegations of Mr. Depp committing domestic abuse and violence,” her lawyer Elaine Bredehoft told Deadline.

艾梅柏的律師伊萊恩·佈雷德霍夫告訴《Deadline》：“德普先生試圖在媒體上散佈故事，批評艾梅柏尚未兌現她向慈善機構承諾的所有捐款，這是又一次絕望的嘗試，目的是轉移人們對英國法院有關戴普犯下家庭虐待和暴力指控的調查結果的注意力。”

The lawyer also explained why Amber hasn’t donated the full amount yet.

律師還解釋了為什麼艾梅柏還沒有捐贈全部款項。

“Amber has already been responsible for seven figures in donations to charitable causes and intends to continue to contribute and eventually fulfill her pledge,” the lawyer added. “However, Amber has been delayed in that goal because Mr. Depp filed a lawsuit against her, and consequently, she has been forced to spend millions of dollars defending Mr. Depp’s false accusations against her.”

這位律師說：“艾梅柏已經開始為慈善事業捐款7位數負責，並打算繼續捐款，最終會兌現她的承諾。然而，由於德普先生對她提起訴訟，艾梅柏在這一目標上被推遲了，最後，她被迫花費數百萬美元為德普先生對她的誣陷辯護。”

Johnny‘s lawyers haven’t released a formal statement about the claims, but Deadline did find an online comment that the actor’s longtime legal advisor Adam Waldman allegedly made in response to the statement from Amber‘s lawyer.

In response to the lawyer saying that Amber will “eventually fulfill her pledge,” he said, “is that the same thing as a 4 year media spasm of the $7m charitable donation? Is that the same thing that was said in court under oath? No, it is not the same thing.

針對艾梅柏的律師稱艾梅柏將“最終履行她的承諾”的說法，他說，“這和媒體4年來對700萬美元慈善捐款的一次次反覆追蹤是一回事嗎？這和法庭上宣誓時說的是同一件事嗎？不，這不是一回事。”
