Elon Musk has denied
allegations that he was involved in an alleged “three-way affair” with
his ex-Amber Heard and model Cara Delevingne.
The Tesla billionaire gave an
exclusive statement to Page Six after astonishing new claims were made in
depositions in the defamation case between Heard and her ex-husband Johnny
Depp.
It was claimed in legal
depositions that Heard, Musk and Delevingne were allegedly involved in a secret
three-way relationship in 2016. It was also alleged that Heard’s affair with
SpaceX entrepreneur Musk started before she split with Depp in May of that
year.
But the Tesla billionaire
exclusively told Page Six of the threesome allegations with the model and
actress, “Cara and I are friends, but we’ve never been intimate. She would
confirm this.
“Also, I wish to confirm again
that Amber and I only started going out about a month after her divorce filing.
I don’t think I was ever even in the vicinity of Amber during their marriage!”
Musk continued to Page Six,
referring to Depp’s dogged legal pursuit of Heard following their 2017 divorce,
“Regarding this lawsuit, I would recommend that everyone involved bury the
hatchet and move on.
“Life is too short for such
extended negativity. Nobody is going to say, after it’s all over, that they
wished the court battle had lasted longer!”
Depp filed a $50 million
defamation suit against Heard in Virginia in 2019 after she wrote a
Washington Post op-ed describing her experience as the victim of domestic
violence, without naming him. He is also suing a London newspaper that called
him a “wife-beater” in an opinion piece.
Depp strongly denies any
violence against Heard, alleging that her claims are a “hoax” and he was
instead victimized by her.
The Virginia filing describes
the couple’s rocky 15-month marriage, and states that one month after their
marriage, Heard was “spending time in a new relationship with Tesla and SpaceX
founder Elon Musk.”
Then on Wednesday, a
deposition in the case emerged in which it was claimed that Heard had an
alleged “three-way affair” with Musk and Delevingne.
Josh Drew — the ex-husband of
Raquel “Rocky” Pennington, Heard’s best friend — contended in a deposition led
by Depp’s attorney, Benjamin Chew, that Musk, 48, slept with Heard and
Delevingne at Depp’s Los Angeles penthouse in late 2016 following Heard and
Depp’s split.
In a leaked video of Drew’s
deposition, Chew asks, “Did Rocky tell you Amber Heard was having an affair
with Carla Delevingne while she was still married to Johnny Depp?” Drew
responds, “Yes.”
“Did she ever tell you in
words or substance while Amber was still married to Johnny Depp that the three
of them, Amber Heard, Elon Musk and Carla Delevingne, spent the night
together?” Chew asks, and Drew response, “Yes,” adding he can’t remember the
specific date of the alleged ménage-à-trois.
The lawyer then contends, “So
they were having a three-way affair, correct?” Drew replies, “My understanding,
yes.”
Delevingne has said she
identifies as pansexual. Heard, who has dated both men and women, when
asked if she identified as bisexual, responded, “I don’t identify as anything …
I like who I like.”
A source close to Heard said
that she and model Delevingne are longtime friends and it wasn’t unusual for
them to spend time together.
