If I recall correctly, she said that with her half of the estate (whatever you want to call it) from the divorce, she had publicly pledged to donate a few million to women's causes. Depp's lawyers found out that none of that money or very little had actually been donated at all.

Her lawyers used her pledge statement to justify that she didn't have the money to pay Depp if she were to lose the defamation case.

These are the very broad lines of what happened. I don't remember the details.

aah but we must not forget that a sign of her character was to poop in the bed of someone she spent intimate time with.

In context, an actress that is abusive and vengeful would be expected to behave differently than an elected person running a country.

Whether you like him or not, he has a better chance at fulfilling the pledge than Amber ever did.

And if he had pooped in someone's bed I am sure we would have heard about it by now :p

Lol yes very good point. I was just referring to the term "pledge" does not mean that someone actually donated. The Amber Heard thing came to mind right away.

That being said haven't we all "shit the bed" in one way or another ;)

Usually only metaphorically though
