Hollywood legend Johnny Depp is getting the last laugh over the “woke” mob after his bitter court battle with ex-wife Amber Heard.
Depp just signed a massive $20 million-plus men’s fragrance deal with Dior.
The actor has been the face of Dior Sauvage for years and the French conglomerate is doubling down on the relationship.
The contract is the biggest men’s fragrance deal in history.
Dior faced enormous pressure to drop Depp over his legal issues with Heard as false smears emerged in the case.
But the company stood up to the “woke” mob and refused to cave.
According to Variety: “Sources peg the three-year deal at upwards of $20 million, which eclipses Robert Pattinson’s $12 million deal to serve as a spokesperson for Dior Homme and Brad Pitt’s $7 million pact to promote Chanel No. 5.
“A source familiar with the fragrance industry says most A-listers with fragrance deals pull in around $2 million-$4 million per year like Chris Pine, whose deal with Armani is valued at $4 million a year over 3 years.”
Amber Heard is not doing as well as Depp after she lost at trial.
The actress has quit Hollywood and moved to Spain.
“I can reveal that Heard has quit Hollywood and quietly relocated to Spain with her young daughter Oonagh,” Daily Mail’s columnist Alison Boshoff reported.
“She’s bilingual in Spanish and is happy there, raising her daughter away from all the noise.
“I don’t think she is in any hurry to return to work or to Hollywood, but she will probably come back when the time is right, for the right project.”

A source told People:
“She has been living in Spain, where she gets more privacy.
“The trial was beyond stressful for her, and she just wanted to start fresh out of the country.
“She is excited about working and filming again.
“She was exhausted and disappointed about the trial.
“She felt she was mistreated.”
This comes right before the one-year anniversary of the June 1st decision that ordered Heard to pay Depp $10.35 million in damages.
