However, after an op-ed by Amber Heard published in The Washington Post in 2018, the actor filed a defamation case stating that her comments have damaged his reputation and career.
The trial was closely monitored by the media, and there was evidence of violence and bruises, and both parties had a witness to testify their innocence. However, the court decided to give the decision against Amber Heard, which sparked a lot of controversies and it massively impacted the careers of both parties involved. Since the decision was against her it drew in a lot of negative attention wherever she went, to prevent attention, she is using an alias name Martha Jane Canary.
Amber Heard Using an Alias to Travel
According to Diario De Mallorca via Marca, Amber Heard was last seen on the Spanish islands of Palma de Mallorca. The One More Time actress was noticed with her daughter Oonagh Paige and girlfriend Bianca Butti. The actress has been using a covert name to make her travel arrangements to prevent the media from knowing about her travel destination.
Using an alias to travel is a common practice by celebrities and renowned public figures so that they can travel safely, and have some much-needed privacy from unwanted media attention. Ever since the court ruled the decision against her favor, Amber Heard is off the grid, to avoid attention from the media or paparazzi that would breach the privacy of her or her daughter.
Who was Calamity Jane?
Amber Heard’s alias name Martha Jane Canary is a legendary figure of the Wild West, who is also known as Calamity Jane. She was a frontierswoman and a scout in the Wild West, who spent her early life traveling with her family across the western United States, however, she soon became renowned for daring and unorthodox behavior that included dressing like men, carrying a firearm, and being a heavy drinker. Martha Jane Canary worked as a scout for the U.S. Army during the Indian Wars, and the figure claims to have worked alongside Wild Bill Hickok during the wars.
However, many historians claim that the legendary figure specifically opposed the Native Americans who fought the invasion from the eastern part of what was known as The Union and she followed the ‘Manifest Destiny’ that followed the word of God, they could settle in any land and proselytize people to follow Christianity as the one true religion.
Many people believed that Amber Heard chose this name to take a swipe at Johnny Depp because the actor revealed his roots lie in the tribes of Native Americans, and the actor mentioned that his great-great-grandmother was Cherokee or Creek Indian.
