“I actually understand,” Heard added of the verdict. “He’s a beloved character and people feel they know him. He’s a fantastic actor,” Heard said in a preview of the interview released on Monday.

“I don’t care what one thinks about me or what judgments you want to make about what happened in the privacy of my own home, in my marriage, behind closed doors,” Heard said. “I don’t presume the average person should know these things. And so I don’t take it personally.”

Heard sat down with Savannah Guthrie in an interview airing Tuesday and wednesday on TODAY and on Friday on Dateline.

“…Even somebody who is sure I’m deserving of all this hate and vitriol, even if you think that I’m lying, you still couldn’t look me in the eye and tell me that you think on social media there’s been a fair representation,” Heard continued. “You cannot tell me that you think that this has been fair.”

Heard was referring to the verdict, which she said she does not “blame” the jury for, despite the fact that they determined she owes Depp more than $10 million in damages.
