Amber Heard’s net worth is $9 million. Here is how the model built her fortune.

Born Amber Laura Heard, the actress dropped out of high school to move to New York and start a career in modelling. However, she shifted to a career in films and TV shows after moving to Los Angeles. Heard represented L’Oréal Paris in the past and also appeared in several movies such as “Aquaman,” “Pineapple Express,” “The Beautiful Ordinary,” and “Magic Mike XXL,” per COED.

The 34-year-old Austin, Texas native then went on to star in different TV series such as “The O.C.,” “Hidden Palms,” “Day 73 With Sarah,” and “Remember the Haze.” She joined the cast of DC’s “Aquaman” as the love interest of Aquaman actor Jason Momoa. Heard will again play the role in the 2022 “Aquaman” sequel.

As someone who had no formal training in acting and theatre, Heard was able to win recognition for her acting. She won the Breakthrough of the Year award in 2008 and the Dallas Star Award at the Dallas International Film Festival in 2010. She was also inducted to the Texas Film Hall of Fame six years ago.

When it comes to personal life, Heard married her “The Rum Diary” co-star Johnny Depp in 2015 but the relationship turned sour. The two filed for a highly publicized divorce in 2016 amid allegations of physical and verbal abuse from the “Pirates of the Caribbean” actor. Depp denied the allegations and claimed it was him who was a victim of physical harm from his former partner. Eventually, Depp agreed to a $7 million settlement, which the actress pledged to give to charities four years ago, as reported by Bustle in 2016.

She made headlines recently after rumors that she spent a night with billionaire Elon Musk and supermodel Cara Delavingne surfaced online. The Tesla CEO denied the allegations and added that he only dated Heard after she filed for divorce from Depp. Heard, who dated both women and men in the past, has not openly addressed her sexuality. “I don’t identify as anything … I like who I like,” she said in an interview with Vanity Fair.

Aside from acting and modeling, Heard is busy collecting vintage cars. A 1968 Mustang and a 1967 Mercedes 250SL can be seen in her garage. Celebrity Net Worth reported that the actress is the one maintaining her cars and she’s been sourcing parts from eBay.
