On the occasion of her 38th birthday, actress Amber Heard posted a simple Instagram photo of herself sipping champagne with the caption, “Champagne kind of birthday.” The post was notable for its timing, as it coincided with the eighth anniversary of the alleged bed defecation incident with Johnny Depp.
According to Depp, the incident occurred in 2016 when he received a call from his maid informing him that feces had been found in his bed at his Downtown L.A. loft. Depp alleged that Heard had left the feces as revenge after he canceled her birthday party to attend Coachella. Heard denied the accusations, claiming the feces must have been left by their dogs.
The incident became a topic of public discussion and was brought up in court during Depp’s 2022 defamation trial against Heard. Depp testified about the incident, stating that he believed Heard had left the feces as a “surprise” after he canceled her birthday party. Heard testified that she did not leave the feces and that it must have been the work of their dogs.
In the years since the trial, Heard has moved to Europe and is living a relatively quiet life with her young daughter. Depp has continued to work in music and movies, but has not achieved the same level of mainstream success as he did in the past.
Despite the passage of time, the bed defecation incident continues to be a topic of public fascination and speculation.
