Johnny Depp or Amber Heard, who is lying in the controversial court trial in London?
Johnny Depp is suing News Group Newspapers over a 2018 article in which he was referred to as a "battering husband." The actor denies he abused Amber Heard
Amber Heard said Wednesday in a British court that her ex-husband Johnny Depp threw "about 30 bottles" at her as if they were "grenades" while they were in Australia in March 2015 and that he accidentally cut part of his finger during the attack. . Taking the stand of the Supreme Court in London for the third day in a row in the defamation case brought by the Hollywood actor against a British tabloid, the actress refuted his version that it was she who lost her temper and the one who had it hurt.
Amber Heard has described her stay with Johnny Depp in Australia as a "three-day hostage situation" in which her ex-husband was "completely insane and out of control". She has said that she feared for her life while they were at the rented property on Australia's Gold Coast.
The incident is central to The Sun newspaper, which called Johnny Depp a "battering husband" in an article published in April 2018. The Sun's defense is based on the actress's allegations of 14 incidents of violence by the actor between 2013 and 2016, both on his private island in the Bahamas and in the rented house in Australia and a private plane.
Johnny Depp, who was again present to hear the testimony of his ex-wife, denies all the accusations and alleges that Amber Heard was the aggressor in the relationship. The Hollywood star is suing News Group Newspapers, editor of The Sun, and the newspaper's executive editor, Dan Wootton, over the aforementioned article.
Johnny Depp's attorney, Eleanor Laws, said Amber Heard had been "enraged" during her time in Australia, where she was filming the latest "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie. The actress commented: "I would get angry sometimes, but not to the point of a tantrum that could lead me to throw something at him." She did admit that she broke a bottle on their second night together in Australia while arguing about how much she drank. "I regret doing that," Amber expressed.
In the first nine days of testimony, Supreme Court Justice Andrew Nicol heard from Johnny Depp and several current and former employees who have supported his side of the story. The actor said that he was the one who was abused by Amber Heard and that she had a history of violence towards him.
In a written statement released in court, Amber Heard said that on several occasions during their relationship she endured "punches, slaps, kicks, head butts and strangulation, some incidents were so severe that I feared she was going to kill me, either intentionally or just losing control and going too far. "
Johnny Depp, 57, and Amber Heard, 34, met on the film set of the 2011 comedy "Diary of a Seducer"; They were married in Los Angeles in February 2015. The model also filed for divorce the following year and it was finalized in 2017.
