Heard was also awarded $2 million in compensatory damages.
As a result, the actress owes her ex-husband $8.35 million.
Addressing the verdict, she told her followers: “The disappointment I feel today is beyond words. I’m heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband.
“I’m even more disappointed with what this verdict means for other women. It is a setback. It sets back the clock to a time when a woman who spoke up and spoke out could be publicly shamed and humiliated.
“It sets back the idea that violence against women is to be taken seriously,” she ended the post.
The full interview will air on NBC’s Dateline on Friday night at 8pm.
