A soon-to-be-released book promises to unveil never-before-disclosed details surrounding the tumultuous marriage between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard โ while also delving deep into Amberโs stormy and emotionally intense relationship with tech billionaire Elon Musk, nearly a decade ago, according to the Daily Mail.
๐น A Promising Start
According to excerpts from the book, Amber and Elonโs relationship began smoothly, full of charm and sweet gestures โ but behind the scenes, it was riddled with jealousy, emotional instability, and explosive arguments. Notably, Elonโs close circle would later make striking remarks about Amberโs personality โ eerily similar to what Johnny Deppโs team had publicly expressed years prior.
Shortly after a restraining order was issued against Johnny Depp in May 2016, a large potted plant was delivered to Amber Heardโs apartment in Los Angeles, accompanied by a card that read:
โHad a wonderful weekend with you โ E.โ
๐ Private Keys and Secret Visits
According to the building manager, Elon Musk had his own private key to Amberโs residence and frequently visited late at night โ particularly when Johnny Depp was not home.
In late June 2016, Amber surprised Elon on his birthday by flying to Teslaโs Fremont factory in California. Upon arrival, Elonโs security team helped hide her behind a Tesla vehicle. As Elon approached, Amber leapt out with a bouquet of flowers, catching him off guard.
Just two weeks later, in mid-July 2016, the two were spotted vacationing together in Miami, Florida, alongside Amberโs sister, Whitney. The group stayed in poolside villas at the Delano Hotel, and Elon took both women on a trip to Cape Canaveral.
Amber would later tell Elon Muskโs biographer, Walter Isaacson, that it was:
โThe most exciting date Iโve ever had.โ
In the beginning, she showered Elon with praise, calling him โintelligent, fascinating, and totally different from the shallow world of Hollywood.โ
๐ Jealousy and Emotional Chaos
However, the relationship quickly spiraled into chaos. Frequent arguments, accusations, and emotional outbursts became the norm.
Elon himself would later describe the relationship as:
โThe most painful one Iโve ever been in.โ
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Musk revealed he had just gone through the breakup and was deeply heartbroken โ struggling to maintain his focus ahead of the Tesla Model 3 launch.
โI went through severe emotional pain in the weeks leading up to that event. It was serious. I had to summon every ounce of willpower to even show up for the Model 3 launch. That day, I felt sad. I drank Red Bull, hung out with positive people, and reminded myself โ โA lot of people are counting on you. Letโs go.โโ
๐ฅ Toxic Dynamics and Allegations
Although they officially broke up in late 2017, Amber and Elon reportedly continued seeing each other intermittently throughout the year.
According to a confidential source close to Amber, she once confided that Elon was โpossessive, jealous, and intense.โ
Amber alleged that Elon had installed surveillance cameras inside her home, bugged her car, and monitored her movements โ actions that made her feel trapped and suffocated.
The final chapter of their relationship came during a trip to Rio de Janeiro in December 2017, where Amber reportedly locked herself inside her hotel room, yelling that Elon had taken her passport and she feared for her safety.
However, hotel security and Elonโs sister-in-law โ who was also on the trip โ assured her that no one intended to harm her, and that her passport was in her purse. They told her she was free to leave at any time.
Elonโs brother, Kimbal Musk, later commented:
โSheโs an incredible actress. Sheโll say something that makes you think, โWow, maybe sheโs telling the truthโ โ but sheโs not.โ
๐ฑ The Aftermath: Regret, Denial, and a Letter to Johnny
Following the breakup, Amber texted her agent, Christian Carino, saying:
โIโm dealing with a breakup. I hate that itโs public. Iโm really sad.โ
To which Carino responded:
โYou never loved Elon. You told me a thousand times โ he was just filling a void. So why are you sad if you didnโt love him to begin with?โ
In a surprising twist, Amber later asked Carino to deliver a letter to Johnny Depp โ one she wrote herself, expressing love and an apology for everything that had happened.
โGod, I miss him so much,โ she confessed.
