Johnny Depp testified again at Amber Heard’s trial. He went into how his ex-wife’s statement had affected him.
In another round of Johnny Depp’s (58) defamation trial against Amber Heard (36), the Hollywood star testified again. It was “crazy” for him Hearing his ex-wife’s claims, the actor explained.
“I came here and told the truth”
“It’s insane, vile allegations of violence, of sexualized violence, […] that she accused me of hearing,” Depp said. “Awful, insane, degrading, ridiculous, painful, wild, unimaginably brutal, cruel and all wrong. All wrong.”
Certainly nobody is perfect, “none of us”. According to his statement, Depp had never been sexually assaulted or physically abused anyone in his life. The allegations against him are “outrageous stories”. No matter what will happen: “I came here and I told the truth.” Among other things, Heard accused Depp of abusing and sexually abusing her. He allegedly penetrated her “over and over again” with a bottle.
His former partner Kate Moss (48) also testified before Depp. The UK model, who he dated between 1994 and 1998, had commented on an alleged incident that allegedly happened while on vacation in Jamaica. She said she slipped on a flight of stairs and the idiot who had gone before rushed back to help her.
“No, he never pushed, kicked or threw me down any stairs,” Moss explained when asked if Depp had ever done anything like that. Heard had mentioned Moss during the trial. An incident that allegedly happened between Depp, the actress and her sister Whitney Henriquez on a staircase in 2015 reminded her of the model. Heard had claimed to have heard a rumor that Depp had allegedly pushed Moss down a flight of stairs.

She did not mention her ex-husband by name. Depp claims the post nonetheless ruined his career, damaged his reputation and cost him a lot of money as a result.
Heard has filed a $100 million counterclaim against her ex. The couple got married in 2015. The two separated again in 2016 and divorced in 2017. Both parties have repeatedly accused each other of domestic violence.
