Johnny Depp’s Forth And Final Testimony In Amber Heard’s Defamation Case

Johnny Depp concluded his testimony in his defamation trial against Amber Heard in a Fairfax, Virginia court on Monday 25th April.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star is suing his ex-wife Amber Heard for $50 million over her 2018 Washington Post op-ed, in which she claimed she was a victim of domestic violence. Depp was not named in the piece, but his lawyers argue it is strongly insinuated, and that his career suffered as a result.

Johnny Depp – Denies Putting Cigarettes Out on Amber Heard

In the first audio recording, Amber was heard saying, “Go put your f—ing cigarettes out on someone else, you f—ing have consequences for your actions. That’s it!” He responds by shouting, “Shut up, fat ass!”

When asked about the exchange on the stand, Depp said he believed it “was another grossly exaggerated moment of Ms. Heard,” adding, “I did not put out a cigarette on her or throw a cigarette at her.”

Johnny Depp’s – Issue With His Alcohol Abuse

Depp was asked about audio recordings of arguments with Heard and whether she was the only person who had a problem with his alcohol abuse. He replied, “Sir, if anyone had a problem with my drinking, at any time in my life, it was me,” Depp replied. “The only person I’ve abused in my life is myself.”

He also indicated anger towards his ex-wife, Vanessa Paradis, in another text to his estate manager, while discussing his daughter Lily-Rose Depp’s alleged reaction to him drinking. “Just trying to get over my shocking discussion with Vanessa that latest 5+ hours!!! I feel ill and have invested my guts into some side corner,” he wrote, “Now, Lily-Rose hates me because she thinks I’m drinking and she’s right but I can’t admit it, or I f—ing die in her eyes … Thanks for that one, Vanessa.”

Johnny Depp – “Walking Away Is Necessary”

In another audio exchange, Amber is heard telling Depp, “you beat the s— out of me,” before showing up a week later “saying you want to say goodbye.”

In the next clip, he can be heard telling her, “Walking away is necessary, especially between you and I. It is of upmost importance. The next move, if I don’t walk away, it’s just gonna be a blood bath. Like it was on the island, of course. It’s not worth it.” She responds by saying “no one in their right mind is going to choose a blood bath over walking away.”

As cross-examination continued, Heard’s lawyer also read texts from Depp praising Amber for supporting him through detox, read headlines about Depp’s allegedly worrisome behavior filming the fourth “Pirates” movie, and asked why the actor sued Heard and not The Washington Post for her op-ed in which she claimed to be a victim of domestic violence. “She was the one making the statements,” he explained, “I had the opportunity to fight back.”
