Cara Delevingne has finally spoken about one of the rumors linked to Amber Heardโ€™s split from Johnny Depp. The model said that she and Heard did have a romantic relationship after Heardโ€™s divorce.

The 33-year-old English model talked about her past relationship with the Aquaman actress while looking back at the time after they worked together on the movie London Fields. Her comments gave fans a direct answer after years of speculation about the two.

During an episode of The Louis Theroux Podcast, Delevingne opened up about dating Heard, the connection with Depp, and her own journey of realizing she was lesbian at a young age.

When the UK host carefully mentioned the โ€œJohnny Depp thing,โ€ Delevingne did not immediately give a long response. Instead, she first asked, โ€œAm I meant to comment?โ€

The Victoriaโ€™s Secret model explained that her connection with Heard started through their work together. She said they were both involved in the same movie, London Fields, and Depp was also part of the project.

Delevingne said that nothing was happening between her and Heard during that time. She explained that things only changed later, after Depp and Heard had separated.

Her comments made a clear difference between the rumors during Depp and Heardโ€™s marriage and what she says happened after their divorce.

Theroux later asked Delevingne to explain what she meant. She described her relationship with Heard as complicated, saying they had been close for a long time and became involved while Heard was going through the divorce.

Delevingne also said that Heard was connected with other people during that period. When Theroux mentioned tech billionaire Elon Musk, Delevingne briefly confirmed his name had been part of the situation.

Her response also brought attention to past claims involving Heard, Delevingne, and Musk, though Musk has denied those claims.

Heard and Musk were romantically linked until early 2018. This happened after Heardโ€™s divorce from Depp in 2016, around a year after she married the Pirates of the Caribbean actor.

The timing is important because Delevingneโ€™s comments were not only about a private relationship. They also referred to a public period when Heardโ€™s personal life was closely followed, discussed, and later brought up again during the legal battle between Depp and Heard.

Why Caraโ€™s Answer Got Attention

Delevingneโ€™s comments caught peopleโ€™s attention because she finally responded to a rumor that had involved all three famous names for years. Instead of making it sound like a dramatic reveal, she described it as a complicated time when different relationships were happening in the public eye.

People reported that Delevingne shared these comments during a June 29 interview on The Louis Theroux Podcast. She said her closeness with Heard grew after they worked together on London Fields.

This background helps explain why Theroux asked her to explain her words further. The term โ€œentangledโ€ can sound unclear, but Delevingneโ€™s response suggested she was talking about a real relationship during a difficult and complicated period in Heardโ€™s life.

Heard has not appeared in a movie since the 2022 trial that gained worldwide attention. A Virginia jury ruled that both Depp and Heard had defamed each other, but the outcome mostly favored the Pirates of the Caribbean actor.

Later in the podcast episode, Delevingne moved away from the Depp-Heard discussion and talked about her own journey with her sexuality. She said she realized she was gay when she was about 11 years old.

Looking back, Delevingne said the signs were clear from a young age. She explained that she already knew when she was around 11.

Delevingne shared that she once had a close friend who made her question her feelings. She said, โ€œI think I care about her more than she likes me, and I donโ€™t know how, but I do.โ€ Looking back now, she said it seems obvious, but at the time she did not fully understand it. She also said she feels proud of that part of her story.

The model also talked about why being open about her sexuality later in life was important to her. She said she wanted younger people to have someone they could relate to.

Delevingne explained that when she started speaking openly about it, she felt there was still a lot of progress needed, especially with having more shows about gay people and more role models for young people.
