Privacy vs. Public Interest

While curiosity about celebrity lives is nothing new, many observers are urging respect for Heard’s privacy, especially when it comes to her children.

Still, in the age of 24/7 media and social speculation, the intersection of fame, family, and powerful figures like Musk is bound to draw attention—whether confirmed or not.
