Amber Heard 'rejects $50,000 spousal support offer over MUTUAL restraining order' as estranged husband Johnny Depp escapes to private island in The Bahamas

Amber Heard rejected a spousal support offer from estranged husband Johnny Depp because he wanted to include a restraining order against her, TMZ reports.

The actress - who accused Johnny of domestic violence and was granted a temporary restraining order against him - says money is 'the lowest priority,' and she's primarily concerned about her safety, sources told the gossip site. 

Lawyers for Amber and Johnny, 52, have been in talks over a settlement, and she did not respond to his offer of $50,000 a month for eight months.

That's because the Pirates of the Caribbean star also wanted a 'mutual restraining order' and Amber refused, saying she was not the violent one, the site reports.

Amber says she and her friend and witness Rachel Pennington can't give a deposition until next week, because they are in New Jersey for Rachel's engagement party and then Amber has to fly to London for costume fittings for her upcoming movie Justice League, TMZ reported.

But Johnny's lawyer Laura Wasser claims Amber is just trying to delay until after the restraining order hearing next week. 

The delay is causing Johnny to be 'tried in the media' and damaging his reputation, she claimed in   court documents.
