Elon Musk’s next public relationship was with actor, Amber Heard. According to People, the entrepreneur developed an interest in the Hollywood star back in 2012 when they both appeared in the gory “Grindhouse” spin-off, “Machete Kills.” However, he denied any romantic interest due to Heard starting her tumultuous relationship with Johnny Depp that same year. The pair were first spotted together around 2016 but didn’t become Instagram official with their romance until April of the next year. By fall, they were over.
In a join-statement published by People, the former couple suggested that while their respective busy schedules had made the relationship unsustainable, they remained friends. Soon after, Musk reflected on the split during a Rolling Stone interview. “I was really in love, and it hurt bad,” he commiserated. “She broke up with me more than I broke up with her, I think.” In the year that followed, the two were rumored to have rekindled their romance, only to have put a final end to things in February 2018.

During Depp’s defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife, text messages between Heard and her former agent were read out which insinuated that the “Aquaman” star’s romance with Musk may have been little more than a rebound, via Insider. One message to Heard read, “You weren’t in love with [Musk] and you told me a thousand times you were just filling space.” That may have been hard on the mogul, who told Rolling Stone he was looking for his soulmate.
