Elon Musk Slammed As ‘Disgusting’ After Sharing Private Photo Of Amber Heard
Elon Musk has been labeled ‘disgusting’ after sharing an intimate photo of Amber Heard.
The Tesla co-founder is one of the world’s wealthiest people and he’s known for expressing his views online, which has made him a polarizing figure.
The X owner and Amber Heard, the ex-wife of Johnny Depp and actress known for films such as Aquaman and The Rum Diary, officially began dating in 2017 but broke up in the following year.
But, when Musk took to his social media platform (formerly known as Twitter), and shared a private photo of the star, he was widely criticized by foes and fans alike.
Slamming Musk’s decision to share the photo, one person writes: “The things we deem OK or not OK is amusing. Most of us flex on the timeline in some shape or form, this one just happens to be… well, kind of extraordinary tbh.”
Another jokes: “This is why you can’t keep a girl, Elon.”
“Sorta goes without saying but Elon Musk tweeting out a photo of Amber Heard in cosplay for his weird fanboys to drool over is f***ing disgusting,” somebody else pens.
A fourth person shares: “Hopefully this was approved by her… we don’t need another controversy.”
According to the tech mogul’s biography, ‘Elon Musk’ by Walter Isaacson, the pair’s early dates revolved, primarily, around work — Heard flew out to the Tesla factory in California to surprise him on his birthday and Musk visited Heard on the set of Aquaman in Australia.
Shortly after their break-up, Musk appeared to have nothing but kind words for his ex. Taking to Instagram, he wrote: “Although Amber and I did break up, we are still friends, remain close and love one another.
Long distance relationships when both partners have intense work obligations are always difficult, but who knows what the future holds.”
His biography, however, tells a different story.
Isaacson writes that Musk’s relationship with Heard was ‘agonizing.’
MailOnline reports that the biographer claims Heard ‘drew [Musk] into a dark vortex that lasted more than a year and produced deep-seated pain that lingers to this day. It was brutal.’
As for what Heard has had to say about the relationship?
“I love him very much,” she says in the bombshell biography. “Elon loves fire, and sometimes it burns him.”
As reported by MailOnline, in Musk’s biography – titled ‘Elon Musk’ – it’s revealed: “[Musk] told [Heard] that she reminded him of Mercy, his favorite character in the video game Overwatch.
“So she spent two months designing and commissioning a head-to-toe costume so she could role-play for him.”
Responding to a tweet discussing the incident, Musk remarked: “She did dress up as Mercy. It was awesome.”
The now-deleted image in question is from the time the pair were dating and it shows Heard in cosplay, which is the practice of dressing up as a character from a film, book, or video game.
In the photo Musk shared, the Zombieland star is dressed as the video game character.
The snap shows Heard looking down at the camera while donning a white costume, halo, wings, and suspenders.
Page Six reports that Musk did not have Heard’s consent to share the image.
A source close the the actress reportedly tells that publication that the photo was meant to stay ‘private.’
