The two starred together in the 2013 film, machete killsin which Heard played Bianca Vasquez as “Miss San Antonio” and Musk made a cameo as himself. “Elon is attracted to her nervousness.

She is very focused and loves to study.” The two first split in August 2017 after less than a year of dating due to their busy schedules. “They had fun for a few months but are both very busy at work now.

Occasionally, without our knowledge, people send speculation that is in fact unfounded, believing they have our best interests in mind,” Heard and Musk said at the time. “Sometimes other agendas are at work. It can get a little weird… However, we want to be upfront and say that we have the utmost respect for one another, and it would be disturbing if anyone got the impression that we felt differently.” Musk also addressed the breakup on Twitter, confirming that “Love” still exists between him and Heard. “By the way just to clear up some of the press storms this weekend, even though Amber and I have broken up we are still friends, stay close and love each other,” he tweeted at the time. “Long distance relationships when both partners have intense work commitments are always difficult, but who knows what the future will bring.”

It only matters because I really like you.”

Heard’s fiercely aimed projectile practically severed Mr. Depp’s middle finger on his right hand, shattering the bones. Mr. Depp’s marriage to Ms. Heard ended in May 2016.”

A Musk representative also denied that the Tesla founder cheated with Heard Depp in March 2022. “Elon and Amber didn’t see each other until May 2016, and even then it was rare,” the representative said in a statement. “Their relationship didn’t become romantic until some time later.” The statement came around the time Musk’s attorney, Alex Spiro, told E! News that the billionaire — who was listed as a potential witness for Heard in the pretrial files for the case — would not testify at Heard and Depp’s trial.
