The Magic Mike XXL actress will receive £5 million from her estranged husband but will split it between a children’s hospital and an organisation which helps victims of domestic abuse.
Amber agreed to settle the case this week as she prepared to go to court to give evidence about her tumultuous relationship with Depp at a restraining order hearing.
She has now confirmed the money she receives will be handed to the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).
Amber said in a statement: “As described in the restraining order and divorce settlement, money played no role for me personally and never has, except to the extent that I could donate it to charity and, in doing so, hopefully help those less able to defend themselves
“As reported in the media, the amount received in the divorce was $7 million and $7 million is being donated.
“This is over and above any funds that I have given away in the past and will continue to give away in the future.
