Several Hollywood stars are seemingly backtracking their support of Johnny Depp’s trial win against Amber Heard -- by unliking his celebratory Instagram post from June.

After Depp and Heard shared their own respective posts discussing the result of the verdict, a number of famous people liked Depp’s post, Heard notably received much less support. However, it’s now being reported that many of these celebrities have now unliked the post.

The names were highlighted by Twitter user @k4mil1a, who cited the post with pre-existing lists compiled by Reddit users at the time. Celebrities whose names previously appeared under the post, but no longer appear include: Orlando Bloom, Robert Downey Jr., Elle Fanning, Bella Hadid, Liv Tyler, Sophie Turner, Jennifer Coolidge, Christina Hendricks, McKenna Grace, Riley Keough, Bruce Campbell and Sam Fender.

Per the Independent, the discovery of the apparent unlikes came after the unsealing of documents related to the case that weren’t allowed to be addressed in court. These documents included several potentially damaging narratives about Depp that Heard’s team was not permitted to mention. They also included further quotes from video testimonials given by famous figures including Depp’s ex-girlfriend, Ellen Barkin.
