Johnny Depp praises Dior for standing by him, possibly throwing shade at Amber Heard. Find out what he said that's raising eyebrows.
Johnny Depp recently lauded luxury brand Dior, sparking speculation that he might be subtly taking a jab at his former spouse, Amber Heard. So, what exactly did he say?
Depp, who has had a tumultuous legal battle with Heard but eventually emerged victorious, expressed his gratitude towards Dior for standing by him through thick and thin. Though he hasn't landed a major Hollywood role lately, he has remained in the spotlight. Heard, meanwhile, is set to appear in the upcoming Aquaman 2, though the extent of her role is unclear.
In a recent interview, as reported by Cinema Blend, Depp opened up about his relationship with Dior, particularly praising their Sauvage fragrance line. He described his association with Dior as a "personal partnership," emphasizing how they have been by his side every step of the way. "For them to trust and believe in me throughout is both noble and rare,” Depp remarked.
It's worth noting that while Depp was asked to relinquish his role as Grindelwald in the Fantastic Beasts franchise, Dior maintained their alliance with him, even in the face of online criticism.
Depp went on to say how profoundly grateful and proud he was for Dior's unwavering support. "Nobody does this," he said, referring to their exceptional loyalty. "From the executives to the artisans, I thank them all for trusting and sticking with me."
Depp didn't hold back on his admiration for Dior, stating, "They are not just a class act; they genuinely are a class act." He further elaborated on how Dior’s support symbolizes strength, bravery, and courage, concluding that Dior means more to him than just their Sauvage fragrance.
While Depp didn't directly mention Heard, the juxtaposition of his praise for Dior's loyalty with his past experiences could be interpreted as a subtle dig at his former wife.
