Ever since her high-profile defamation case against Johnny Depp, Amber Heard has been slammed by the public.

The Aquaman actor faced intense scrutiny and horrific online abuse during and after the trial, in which jurors sided with her ex-husband and ordered her to pay him over $1o million.

However, there are still many famous faces coming out in support of Heard, who accused Depp of physically abusing her during their marriage.

Most recently, supermodel Emily Ratajkowski appeared to declare her support for the 36-year-old star in a TikTok video captioned: "Its 2022 and it's getting even SCARIER to be a woman."

In the video - which was posted over the weekend - 'My Body' author Ratajkowski lip syncs the words: "I’m not scared of lions, tigers and bears, but I’m scared of..."

She then lists her fears in overlay text, citing: "Roe v. Wade getting overturned, Harvey getting an appeal, Shia's Redemption Tour, the way y'all dragged Amber and the precedent that court case set."

Many of the model's followers took to the comments section to applaud her for publicly supporting Heard.

"The Amber part yes! This trial sent us back 500 years," one wrote, while another commented: "Thank you for not being scared to stand by Amber #justiceforamberheard," and a third added: "Emphasis on the Amber part. [It was] scary how much people wanted to prove a woman wrong."

Meanwhile, Ratajkowski isn't the first celebrity to speak out in support of Heard since her multimillion-dollar trial came to an end.

In the aftermath of the Virginia court case, comedian Kathy Griffin slammed Depp and his devoted fans, adding that she "completely believe[s]" her "friend" Heard.

"These Johnny Depp stans that are talking about this trial and yet they refuse to show pictures of what he looks like now, which is a big orange fat bloated boozebag," Griffin said.

The comedian went on to reference the army of Depp's fans who flocked to the courthouse in Fairfax, Virginia, to support him during the trial.

"The whole thing of how he had, like, his digital warriors outside," she said, adding "It's... this is a middle-aged man. This is pathetic."
