Actress Amber Heard has filed for divorce from husband Johnny Depp after just 15 months of marriage.

Heard, 30, filed the divorce petition in a Los Angeles court on Monday, citing “irreconcilable differences” with the 52-year-old Depp, the A-list actor who starred in Pirates of the Caribbean, according to a copy of the court documents uploaded online by celebrity news website TMZ.

Representatives for the two did not return calls or emails seeking comment. Heard is seeking spousal support from the Oscar-nominated actor, the documents showed.

The couple got married in February of last year after meeting when they appeared together in the 2011 film The Rum Diary.

The pair began dating after Depp split from his longtime partner, French actress Vanessa Paradis. Depp and Paradis are the parents of two teenage children, a boy and a girl.

Depp and Heard made global headlines last year when they ran into legal trouble for bringing their Yorkshire terriers, Pistol and Boo, into Australia as Depp was filming the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie, breaching the country’s tight biosecurity laws.
