Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's relationship has been the center of a media firestorm for years.

Depp and Heard got engaged in 2014 according to Us Weekly, but there were rumors of turmoil. In February 2015, the pair wed. However, the following year, Heard and Depp split – she cited irreconcilable differences in the divorce papers.

A few days later, the actress filed a restraining order against Depp amid allegations of domestic abuse. Heard later went to write an open letter about being the victim of abuse (via Page Six). The pair officially divorced in 2017 and in March 2019, Depp opted to sue his ex-wife for defamation. The following year, Depp accused Heard of assaulting him, leading the actress to countersue her ex-husband. In April 2022, Depp's defamation case against Heard kicked off and fans were invested in every little detail of the hearing. In June, Depp won the case against Heard and was awarded $15 million in damages (via Los Angeles Times).

The outlet suggests that Gemini men are extroverted and love jumping into adventure or finding a challenge that will excite them.

So were Depp and Heard a mismatch from the beginning according to their zodiac signs?

The New York Post reports that Johnny Depp and Amber Heard were not astrologically compatible. The outlet notes that Depp's birth chart suggests that he's drawn to toxic and wounded relationships. Meanwhile, Heard's birth chart claims that she is prone to deception and also can deceive herself.

According to Popular Astrology, a relationship between a Gemini man and a Taurus woman can easily fall apart if they begin fighting, and in Depp and Heard's case, fans know this to be true. The outlet claims that Gemini men can often verbalize their ideas and debate, which often rubs Taurus women the wrong way. In addition, Taurus women are known for pointing out mistakes, which is something that Gemini men are said to dislike.

It seems that the pairing of Gemini men and Taurus women often runs their course and can last longer than is healthy. They are known to be attracted to each other's differences at the beginning of their relationship, but eventually realize that they don't have much in common.

Elite Daily also suggests that the Gemini and Taurus pairing may have issues in the bedroom, which can also lead to problems in the relationship. While fans know that Depp and Heard weren't a good match, it seems that their zodiac signs weren't compatible either.
