A Focus on Fitness and Balance
The star moved to Spain in 2022 following her highly publicized legal battle with Johnny Depp.
Back in a 2018 interview with SHAPE, she explained why running remains such an important part of her routine.
“It’s a way for me to alleviate stress, clear my mind, and refocus,” she said. “Plus, I can do it anywhere. I travel so much that it’s invaluable to me to have something that keeps me healthy and feeling good no matter where I am.”
She also stressed the importance of not letting fitness become overwhelming.
“If you’re not going to enjoy life, there’s no point in eating a certain way and working out and doing all the things actors do to manipulate how we look — and how the world looks at us,” she explained.
Life in Spain After Hollywood
Amber Heard has said running helps her manage stress.
Heard has stepped back from the Hollywood spotlight in recent years, choosing a quieter life in Spain following her widely publicized legal battle with ex-husband Johnny Depp.
The defamation case stemmed from a 2018 op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post, where she described being a survivor of domestic abuse, which Depp’s legal team disputed in court proceedings.
A source previously told People in April 2023 that the actress wanted a new life abroad after the trial concluded.
“The trial was beyond stressful, and she wanted to start fresh,” the insider said, adding that Heard "couldn't wait to leave the U.S. with her daughter" after the trial.
"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," the source continued. "She is excited about working and filming again. She was exhausted and disappointed about the trial. She felt she was mistreated."
