But with all the twists, turns, and countless news stories that have come out since the saga first began, it is easy to get lost in it all and forget how we got to this point in the first place.
That being said, we have put together a comprehensive breakdown of the former couple’s story from the time they first met to the conclusion of their extensive trial in a Virginia courtroom (for now, anyway).
Before the orders of protection, before the divorce, and even before the marriage, Johnny Depp and Amber Heard first met each other as co-stars on the set of a film back in 2009.
In the film, Depp portrays Paul Kemp, an author turned newspaper reporter in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Depp addressed the breakup in a July 2013 interview in Rolling Stone, where the actor said that “relationships are very difficult.”
A few days later, People reported that the couple was engaged.
The couple didn’t waste any time getting married as not even a year after getting engaged, Johnny Depp and Amber Heard exchanged their vows on February 5, 2015.

The fun and love would be short-lived, however, as trouble reportedly started to hinder the couple’s relationship practically as soon as they tied the knot.
