Johnny Depp Celebrates Trial Win By Splurging on Grand Buffet of Indian Delicacies
Pirates of the Caribbean star Johnny Depp has been a part of headlines for quite a long time now. The actor recently won the much-talked-about defamation trial against his ex-wife Amber Heard. Mr. Depp was suing his wife for $50 million for an op-ed she wrote in the Washington Post claiming that she is a survivor of domestic violence. The op-ed allegedly made things go south for Johnny Depp in professional as well as personal aspects.
