The Pirates of the Caribbean star's rep has released a statement saying, basically, that Johnny won't be talking about the split.
It reads: "Given the brevity of this marriage and the most recent and tragic loss of his mother, Johnny will not respond to any of the salacious false stories, gossip, misinformation and lies about his personal life. Hopefully the dissolution of this short marriage will be resolved quickly."
The couple announced their divorce yesterday after 15 months of marriage.
According to TMZ, Amber Heard filed papers earlier this week, citing "irreconcilable differences''.
But sources close to the star have hinted the split came about because Amber was "detested" by Johnny's family.
An insider revealed: "Johnny's two children, two sisters and his mom hated Amber" and believed that she "treated [Johnny] like crap".
Johnny's mother Betty Sue, 81, moved into his LA estate earlier this year but allegedly clashed with Amber, calling her a "terrible person".
In another cruel twist of fate for Johnny, Betty Sue passed away just four days before Amber filed for divorce.
After Amber filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences and asking for spousal support, Johnny - who is estimated to be worth around $400 million - responded through his lawyer Laura Wasser asking for Amber's maintenance claim to be turned down.
