2. Ex-tennis star Jelena Dokic opens up about mental health struggles.

This post deals with mental health and suicide and may be triggering for some readers.

Aussie tennis star Jelena Dokic has opened up about her mental health struggles, saying she is on the road to recovery after almost taking her own life.

The former world No.4, who has become a successful tennis commentator, posted on social media detailing a harrowing experience in April.

The 39-year-old says seeking professional help "saved her life".

"The last six months have been tough," Dokic wrote.

"It's been constant crying everywhere. From hiding in the bathroom when at work, to wipe away my tears so that nobody sees it. To the unstoppable crying at home within my four walls has been unbearable.

"I am writing this because I know I am not the only one struggling. Just know that you are not alone. I am not going to say that I am doing great now... I am definitely on the road to recovery."

3. Amber Heard doesn't blame Depp libel jury.

Amber Heard says she doesn't blame the jury that awarded Johnny Depp more than $US10 million ($A14 million) after a six-week libel trial, in her first post-verdict interview.

"I don't blame them," Heard told NBC's Today co-host Savannah Guthrie in an interview clip aired on Monday. "I actually understand. He's a beloved character and people feel they know him. He's a fantastic actor."

In clips of the interview, which the Today show plans to air more of in coming days, Guthrie pressed Heard on her credibility and what it meant to jurors.

"There's no polite way to say it. The jury looked at the evidence you presented. They listened to your testimony and they did not believe you," she said. "They thought you were lying."

Heard responded, "How could they not come to that conclusion? They had sat in those seats and heard over three weeks of non-stop, relentless testimony from paid employees."

The actress went on to point out the social media commentary surrounding the case, saying, "You still couldn't look me in the eye and tell me that you think on social media there's been a fair representation. You cannot tell me that you think that this has been fair."

Depp, who has not yet done a formal interview about the case, has said the verdict "gave me my life back."

4. Prince Andrew reportedly banned from public Garter Day events.

The monarchy has taken a "family decision" to limit the disgraced Duke of York's appearance on Garter Day to a behind-the-scenes lunch and investiture ceremony.

Andrew will not be seen in public during Garter Day after the Prince of Wales and Duke of Cambridge reportedly lobbied the Queen about his participation.

A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: "The Duke of York will attend the investiture and lunch today but will not be part of the procession or service."

The duke's reputation has been severely tarnished by his involvement in an alleged civil sexual assault case, and it is understood a "family decision" was taken to reduce his involvement.

The Queen will not be taking part in the procession of Garter Knights who walk through the grounds of Windsor Castle to St George's Hall where the annual service commemorating the Order is held.

Given the monarch's mobility issues the decision was expected and in past years she has travelled by car to the place of worship. However, she is expected to attend the lunch and the investiture ceremony.

Retired tennis star Ash Barty was also appointed an AO after wrapping up her career as a three-time grand slam singles champion, having claimed this year's Australian Open crown.

"I'm a very proud Australian and representing my country to the best of my ability has always been my priority," said Barty. "I hope to continue my contribution to our country, focusing on providing youth with sport and education opportunities and inspiring all young kids to go after their dreams."

Women make up 46 per cent of the list, the second-highest percentage since the honours system was implemented in 1975.
