Dougherty testified she has so far only provided $1.3 million, and only $350,000 of that was donated by Heard herself. Another $100,000 came from Depp, and $500,000 is believed to have been donated on Heard\u2019s behalf by billionaire Elon Musk, who dated Heard for almost a year after her divorce from Depp, Deadline <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2022\/04\/johnny-depp-amber-heard-elon-musk-aclu-1235012179\/\">reported<\/a>.
