8. The Age Difference

Depp is 23 years older than Heard, which is a pretty big deal. Before she was even born, he had already been married and divorced. It didn’t help that she was a bit of a free spirit. “Amber flirts and has many different kinds of relationships. She is not really ready to settle down,” a source said prior to them getting married.

7. He’s the A-List Star – She’s Not

The Oscar-nominated actor has had quite the acting career while Heard has not. She’s been in Hollywood for over a decade and she still has yet to score her big break. Heard has also made a point of discussing how she feels limited by her good looks and ultimately longs to play more substantial roles. Unfortunately, no one’s banging down her door with amazing scripts. Many people have assumed that she shacked up with Johnny to boost her career; however, if that is the case, it hasn’t been working.

6. They Both Have Strong Personalities

According to E! News, the first year of Depp and Heard’s marriage wasn’t smooth sailing, mostly because of their intense personalities, which creates conflict for them. “Because of their strong personalities they do not always see eye to eye. They are both stubborn and overly dramatic, which doesn’t help when they disagree,” a source said. These two also need a lot of space. When they are filming, they barely speak.

5. Trouble Before Their Nuptials

Before they were married in February 2015, the wedding had reportedly been postponed several times because Amber got cold feet. “Before Amber met Johnny she was just a regular super cool hipster chick living with roommates who dated girls,” a source told People. “At their engagement party she kind of got cold feet… she was just like what is this scene and what am I doing here? She kind of couldn’t believe it was her life now.”

1. His Drinking

It’s no secret that Depp loves to party and, even though he’s in his early 50s, word on the street is he still goes on benders and didn’t bother to text or call his wife for days at a time. About a year ago, this was said to have put a strain on the fledgling marriage.
