(Fairfax, VA) -- Johnny Depp has won his defamation case against ex-wife Amber Heard.

A Virginia jury agreed with every one of Depp's defamation counts against Heard and he was awarded 15-million dollars. Heard's attorney says her client will appeal.

Depp sued Heard for 50-million over an op-ed piece she wrote in The Washington Post about domestic violence. The "Pirates of the Caribbean" star claimed the article hurt his career and caused him to lose roles in films.
