Amber Heard calls Johnny Depp a "monster" and he responds
The actress reveals several violent episodes of her ex-husband a month after he sued her for defamation
When we believed that the fight between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp was close to ending, a new story of alleged abuse against her is made public.
The couple, who married in 2015 and divorced in 2016 surrounded by continuous fights and a great controversy, reached an agreement that Depp would pay 7 million dollars to settle the matter and without the possibility of either of them talking about their relationship in public.
After months of fulfilling the deal, Amber Heard published an opinion piece in the ‘Washington Post’ in December 2018, recounting the domestic violence she would have suffered. As a result of the violation of the agreement, and despite the fact that Depp's name did not appear throughout the piece, he filed a defamation lawsuit against his ex-partner for an amount of 50 million dollars.
The origin
Johnny Depp filed a defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard, who has reported alleged episodes of domestic violence by him
Now, a month after the lawsuit, People magazine has brought to light some statements by Amber Heard included in a new court file that details several specific "abuses" that she suffered during her marriage to Johnny Depp.
According to the publication, this would include some statements by the actress before a judge in which she would define Depp as a "Monster" when he was under the influence of drugs and alcohol.
Accusation
The actress defines her ex-husband as a "monster" when he was under the influence of drugs and alcohol
In addition to this, Heard would have said that, during a flight from Boston to Los Angeles in 2014, Depp would have started throwing objects at him "for having recorded a romantic scene with James Franco", after which the actor would not have stopped and would have continued taunting her in a provocative way.
Another of the narrated episodes would have taken place a year after the first, and would have to do with a fight between the two in Los Angeles, where he would have thrown a carafe and several other objects. After this, Depp would have slapped her "hard", dragged her by the hair "from the stairs to the office and then to the guest room."
According to the actress, at the end of the attack she would have told her then husband that she was going to leave him and that she would call the police if she ever laid her hand on her again, to which he would have responded by pushing her and giving her a head butt.
Faced with these statements, Johnny Depp's lawyer has decided to make a statement to People magazine denying Amber Heard's new contributions and calling it "A hoax due to the evidence that he needs new lies to support himself."
Not being enough, the actor's legal representative has defined the actress as "a woman with previous arrest and detention for domestic violence."
The releases
While Depp's lawyer affirms that everything is a “hoax”, Heard's affirms that they will continue fighting to end the “vile harassment” against the actress
Ultimately, after declining to comment, Amber Heard's attorney has issued a statement stating that “this frivolous action is just the latest in Johnny Depp's efforts to silence Amber Heard. She will not be silenced. Mr. Depp's actions demonstrate that she is unable to accept the reality of her abusive behavior. "
To cap off a story of endless lawsuits and accusations, Heard's attorney has announced that the end of the fight does not appear to be near: “As long as he is hell-bent on self-destruction, we will continue to win his unfounded demands to end the vile harassment of Mr. Depp and his legal team against my client.
