Actor Johnny Depp told jurors that he felt compelled to sue his ex-wife Amber Heard for libel out of an obsession for the truth after she accused him of ...

He also said he took his mother’s “nerve pills” when he was a kid. In the article, Heard referred to herself as a “public figure representing domestic abuse.” “The characterization of my ‘substance abuse’ that’s been delivered by Ms. Heard is grossly embellished,” Depp said. Heard's lawyers, who have filed their own countersuit against Depp, said nothing in the article libels him. So far, Depp's friends, family and employees have testified that Heard was the aggressor in the relationship, physically attacking him on multiple occasions. She became upset, he said, when he broke an established routine in which she took off his boots for him when he came home. He said there were little things, though, that gave him indications of a rocky relationship ahead. After one long answer, he admitted: “I forgot what the original question was.” She was kind. She was smart. Indeed, he acknowledged his meandering style, particularly as it relates to his writing style. It’s very strange when one day you’re Cinderella, so to speak, and then in 0.6 seconds you’re Quasimodo.”

Johnny Depp is suing ex wife Amber Heard over a 2018 op-ed she wrote for the Washington Post. On Wednesday, Depp finally took the stand.

The first day of Depp’s testimony concluded with him looking back at his relationship with Heard. He said the relationship began when they filmed a shower scene for The Rum Diary. “I think there was something with the kiss in the shower that was very real,” Depp said. Wyatt was asked to describe interactions between Depp and Heard. He recalled being on a flight with them to Boston in 2014 and said that Heard “was giving Johnny the cold shoulder, being quiet, and seemed pouty.” “The op-ed’s clear implication that Mr Depp is a domestic abuser is categorically and demonstrably false,” his civil claim maintains. Wyatt described Depp glowingly, saying he was “great to work with on films” and “always comes prepared,” making for a “fun” day. He recalled the alleged water-bottle incident and remarked: “In California, it’s assault if you attempt to swing or throw something at somebody, even if you don’t hit them.” “At one point, I went up to her and said something to the effect of ‘He cares about you,’ and all of a sudden she snapped and said, ‘How dare you talk to me? All of a sudden it got very loud.” When asked if he had ever seen any violent or physical altercation between Depp and Heard, he responded: “I’ve never seen Johnny be violent toward anybody.” Heard’s attorney tried to ask Wyatt about Marilyn Manson, who is also an alleged abuser and suing his ex Evan Rachel Wood for defamation over her allegations against him detailed in her documentary, Phoenix Rising. They had previously brought up Manson during opening statements, describing him as Depp’s “good friend.” Depp said that he became addicted to the opioid Roxycodone after suffering an injury while filming the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean, and detoxed during his relationship with Heard. Get away from me!’” Wyatt said he “went back to my seat and minded my own business.” Heard, he said, “was abruptly loud. He was filling out job applications in “video stores, clothing stores, anything … just to be able to pay the rent.” Depp said that his friend, actor Nicolas Cage, told him, “I want you to meet my agent.” Cage told Depp he thought he could act. Depp said that he first abused drugs at 11, when he took one of his mother’s “nerve pills.” Depp claimed he didn’t take drugs for enjoyment. I was a musician, but the fact that these people were going to pay me what I found to be a ludicrous sum of money … I had never seen that kind of dough in my life.”

Actor Johnny Depp took the stand Tuesday in his libel lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard, saying her domestic abuse allegations against him were ...

A week into the trial in Fairfax County, Virginia, Depp, 58, is the first half of the divorced couple to take the stand and testify against his former spouse.

“She’s going to give the performance of a lifetime in this courtroom.” Amber wishes the best for Johnny in the future." But he said the evidence will show that Heard gave herself the injury to ruin Depp’s reputation. "Because Johnny Depp brought this case, all of this is going to come out." "I didn't deserve that nor did my children nor did the people who have believed in me for all those years." He also pointed out that the article in question never even mentions Depp's name. In the column, she claimed to be a victim of domestic abuse. She was understanding. It’s very strange when one day you’re Cinderella, so to speak, and then in 0.6 seconds you’re Quasimodo." She was funny. She was kind. She was smart.

“She slapped him because he was being incoherent and talking about being with another woman.” Wyatt testified that he accompanied Depp, his former wife Vanessa Paradis and children to their home in the Bahamas on several occasions. “I was bitten by the snake, and before you know it the monkey was on my back,” he said. You’re a whore.” Depp filed a $50m lawsuit against Heard in 2018. Heard has said Depp probably cut his finger when he smashed a telephone. “It would stir up some rather unusual reactions from her,” he said. Several witnesses have characterised Heard as the abusive party. The actor has accused Heard of throwing a bottle at him, severing the finger. From the beginning of our relationship, she was wonderful, and then things just started to change … or reveal themselves, I think is a better way to put it.” But he had periods of sobriety, he said. Nor have I ever struck any woman in my life.”

He also alleged that his first experience with taking controlled substances occurred when he was roughly 11 years old and would take his mother's prescription pills "to escape the chaotic nature of what we were living through."

Heard was granted a protective order in May 2016 after she alleged that Depp hit her in the face with a cellphone. Anderson said Depp told her that Heard “gave as good as she got.” He said he detoxed from the drug prior to his relationship with Heard. During cross-examination, Anderson clarified that her understanding was that Heard “fought back” after Depp became physical. Depp addressed Heard's allegations regarding substance abuse, saying he began taking his mother's "nerve pills" at the age of 11 and proceeded to self-medicate with substances over the years as a coping mechanism for trauma. Little time was spent on his relationship with Heard, who he felt was the perfect partner for him at the beginning of their relationship. "Because I've never appeared loaded or high or any of that ... no one would have ever known." "Then you started to notice other little tidbits and things that come out," Depp said. Anderson also testified that Heard, in a session conducted separately from her husband, said Depp hit her and that she showed her bruises. Although the article never mentions Depp by name, his attorneys said it indirectly refers to allegations she made against him during their 2016 divorce. The trial in Fairfax County, Virginia, is expected to take weeks. Depp told the court Tuesday that he was "obsessed with the truth" and, though he argued with his ex-wife, he never hit Heard.

Wile, who is friends with Alimova, says it was cool to see Depp and Heard in person as he is familiar with both their works. Gillespie arrived last week from Down Under to catch a glimpse of a case that she says she has been following for years. Butler has been watching the case everyday via Court TV but says she decided to head to the courthouse once she learned Depp would take the stand. She says there was little to no line during her first trip to the courthouse on the second day of the trial. He says it was interesting to see Depp not treated as a celebrity in a court setting. We chatted with some of the people waiting in line about why they came out to the courthouse:

In defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard, actor Depp says allegations have damaged his career and reputation.

(Depp lost a libel case in the United Kingdom in 2020 against the Sun when a headline called him a “wife beater,” though that has largely not come up during the U.S. trial.) “I am ashamed of some of the references I made. They kissed in a scene and felt a spark; later, he said, they kissed again in his trailer. “I can’t say that I’m embarrassed because I know that I’m doing the right thing.” He suddenly became much more recognizable; fans started trying to trespass onto his property and he had to hire tighter security. Depp said he first tried “nerve pills” at age 11 when he saw they calmed down his mother, and tried every drug imaginable by age 15. Speaking slowly and delivering lengthy answers at times, Depp delved into his childhood and talked about his mother being physically violent and verbally abusive. A murmur rippled through the crowd when his attorney called “John C. Depp” to the stand. In his testimony, Depp said he tried to be a private person and feels very exposed with these intimate details being spilled in public. The actor is suing Heard for $50 million for defamation over a 2018 op-ed she wrote in The Washington Post calling herself a survivor of domestic abuse, which Depp says caused further damage and irreparably destroyed his reputation and career. “It’s never been for the party effect. Depp’s testimony comes after four days of the plaintiff’s witnesses who have delved into some of the most personal aspects of his and Heard’s lives and marriage.

The actor testified Tuesday, flatly denying he ever hit Heard and telling jurors he felt compelled to sue her for libel out of an obsession for the truth.

In the article, Heard referred to herself as a “public figure representing domestic abuse.” Depp apologized for the text messages on Tuesday, saying he was “ashamed of some of the references made. Heard’s lawyers, who have filed their own countersuit against Depp, said nothing in the article libels him. Meanwhile, jurors have seen text messages in which Depp used vulgar language to describe Heard and spelled out his desire to get revenge against her. So far, Depp’s friends, family and employees have testified that Heard was the aggressor in the relationship, physically attacking him on multiple occasions. When he became a father, Depp said, he made sure his children didn’t experience that kind of upbringing.

During their opening arguments last week, Ms. Heard’s lawyers told the jury that they would be presenting evidence of “graphic and horrifying” abuse against Ms. Heard, including instances of sexual assault, which Mr. Depp denies. On Tuesday, Mr. Depp provided an account not unlike the one he gave in London two years ago in an earlier defamation case he brought against The Sun newspaper for calling him a “wife beater” in a headline. In court papers, Mr. Depp has alleged that Ms. Heard physically abused him throughout their relationship, including by throwing objects at him. Mr. Depp’s lawsuit claimed that Ms. Heard’s op-ed “devastated” his once flourishing acting career. She has said Mr. Depp hurt his finger while smashing a phone against a wall repeatedly.

In that trial, a judge found that there was “overwhelming evidence” that he had assaulted Ms. Heard repeatedly during their marriage and that he had put her “in fear of her life.” Mr. Depp sued his ex-wife Amber Heard for an op-ed she wrote saying she was a “public figure representing domestic abuse.” Ms. Heard maintains that he abused her repeatedly.

Heard was granted a protective order in May 2016 after she alleged that Depp hit her in the face with a cellphone. During cross-examination, Anderson clarified that her understanding was that Heard “fought back” after Depp became physical. Their former couples therapist, Laurel Anderson, testified that the abuse appeared to be “mutual” during their marriage. He said he detoxed from the drug prior to his relationship with Heard. “Then you started to notice other little tidbits and things that come out,” Depp said. “Because I’ve never appeared loaded or high or any of that ... no one would have ever known.” But he denied ever becoming “out of control” while under the influence. Little time was spent on his relationship with Heard, who he felt was the perfect partner for him at the beginning of their relationship. Heard would rather be in a fight with Depp than see him leave, and she “would strike him to keep him there,” Anderson said. The trial in Fairfax County, Virginia, is expected to take weeks. The “Pirates of the Caribbean” actor went further and testified that he had never “struck a woman in my life.” Depp told the court Tuesday that he was “obsessed with the truth” and, though he argued with his ex-wife, he never hit Heard.

I thought maybe I could bring her around.” She couldn’t be wrong.”

Actor Johnny Depp has resumed his testimony in a Fairfax, Virginia court in his defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard.

She did not name Depp in the piece, but he claims it cost him lucrative film work. Depp, known for his work in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise, is suing Heard for $50 million over a 2018 Washington Post op-ed in which she wrote about her experience with domestic abuse. In his roughly three-hour testimony on Tuesday, the Oscar-nominated star spoke in detail about Heard's allegations of domestic abuse, his history with substance abuse and his experiences growing up with an abusive mother.

Johnny Depp's prior testimony from day one, which at many points felt Proustian, described an abusive childhood and drug use, starting at age 11, ...

“I’ve never struck a woman in my life and certainly not going to strike a woman if she decides to make fun of a tattoo that I have on my body.” “I’ve never used the word ‘party’ in my life.” Before delving into his relationship with Heard, Depp described his addiction to the opioid Roxicodone after getting hurt on set while filming the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean. He eventually went through withdrawal during his relationship with Heard, Depp said in his first day of testimony. “The way this is heading, I could see the jurors just being like, ‘Look she was a victim of domestic violence. “I was sort of not allowed to be right, not allowed to have a voice,” Depp said of his arguments with Heard. “So at a certain point, what enters your mind is, you start to slowly realize that you are in a relationship with your mother, and I know that that sounds perverse, obtuse, but the fact is some people [search] for weaknesses in people …” The fights and arguments escalated to become violent, he said. Depp continued to explain his relationship with substances on day two of testimony. “I am obsessed with the truth.” On day two, he appeared in court in a three-piece gray suit and immediately dove into his relationship with Heard. He described their “heightened” arguments as “circular” with no way in or out.

Johnny Depp's rehashing of his and Amber Heard's relationship continued Tuesday in court, as the former couple battles in a vicious libel lawsuit.

"I didn't deserve that nor did my children nor did the people who have believed in me for all those years." I think that it was an easy target for her to hit." "Ms. Heard was unable to be wrong," Depp said at the beginning of his testimony. "The characterization of my 'substance abuse' that’s been delivered by Ms. Heard is grossly embellished," he added. "I stayed, I suppose because my father stayed," he added. Depp revealed his mother had attempted suicide a few times, something that Heard had allegedly threatened. In arguments, Depp said he would remove himself from their arguments by leaving the room or locking himself in the bathroom, for instance, to avoid being confrontational. In the column, she claimed to be a victim of domestic abuse. But, all in all, it was just constant." There were small indicators early on that suggested rocky times ahead, he said. I can only say that I stayed through all that, I'm sure it's somehow related to my father remaining stoic as my mother would beat him to death. "Ms. Heard in her frustration and rage would strike out.

Depp reconoció en su testimonio que él y Heard tuvieron discusiones durante su relación, pero dijo: “Nunca llegué al punto de golpear a la Sra. Heard de ninguna manera ni he golpeado a ninguna mujer en mi vida”. El nombre del actor no estaba mencionado en el artículo. No obstante, en 2019 Depp la demandó y sostuvo que, aunque su nombre no apareciera, el artículo “trataba claramente (y otros medios de comunicación lo caracterizaron sistemáticamente como tal) de la supuesta victimización de la señora Heard después de que acusara públicamente a su exmarido, Johnny Depp (el señor Depp), de abuso doméstico en 2016”. “Me convertí en una figura pública que representa el abuso doméstico, y sentí toda la fuerza de la ira de nuestra cultura para las mujeres que hablan”, escribió en ese entonces.
