Johnny Depp is currently basking in the victory of his defamation trial against Amber Heard. The trial began on April 12, 2022, at Fairfax County Circuit Court, Virginia. Depp had sued Heard for $50 million regarding an alleged defamatory article that she wrote in the Washington Post. Heard counter-sued him for $100 million. Both the stars accused each other of domestic violence.
After six weeks, jury deliberation began, and Depp won the defamation trial. Before the jury deliberation, on the night of May 29, 2022, Depp stepped into his rockstar shoes and performed with Jeff Beck at Sheffield City Hall. Both performed their rendition of John Lennon’s ‘Isolation,’ which was released in 2020. After the win, Depp continued to tour with Jeff Beck. Recently, Depp was photographed while being escorted from a hotel. But why?

Why Johnny Depp Was Helped Out Of A Hotel
On Thursday, the ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’ actor was seen outside Hotel Birmingham, London. However, the actor seemed distressed. Depp wore a scarf around his neck and accessorized his look with rings and chains. He was wearing a black checkered blazer with a white shirt, black jeans, and sported disheveled hair.
A bodyguard was holding his arm amidst a throng of fans waiting to catch a glimpse of their favorite star. Johnny Depp is accompanying Jeff Beck on his tour around the U.K. these days. A few days back, Jeff announced new music with Johnny Depp, which will release next month.
Depp’s spokesperson released a statement about the escorting: “There have been huge crowds around Johnny since he’s been in the UK, and there have been a number of videos of security having to pull him away from different crowds or signing autographs for safety reasons. This was just a matter of helping him get through crowds.”
Depp booked a whole restaurant for the tour’s crew. They ordered cocktails, and champagne, and left a generous tip. Reportedly, he spent $62,000 at the Varanasi restaurant on Sunday night to celebrate his win.
After the verdict, he wrote a message on Instagram in which he said, “Six years later, the jury gave me my life back.” The jury awarded him $10 million in compensation and $350,000 for punitive damages.
