Depp is accused of attacking Amber Heard throughout their tempestuous relationship, which has been described as “a crime scene waiting to happen”.

Johnny Depp is set to give evidence for a fifth day in his blockbuster libel case against The Sun over allegations of domestic violence by his ex-wife Amber Heard.

He has been questioned since Tuesday morning about 14 alleged incidents of domestic violence, as well as his Hollywood lifestyle, past relationships with Vanessa Paradis, Winona Ryder and Kate Moss, and his well-documented use of drink and drugs. NGN’s lawyers have said Mr Depp first hit his ex-wife in early 2013 during a heated argument over a painting – which he allegedly tried to set alight – by Ms Heard’s ex Tasya van Ree and attacked her on a number of other occasions before the couple split in May 2016.

He accuses Ms Heard of severing the top of his middle finger with a vodka bottle in Australia in March 2015 and of “building a dossier very early on” in their relationship to align herself with the #MeToo movement. Ms Heard’s evidence was expected to begin on Friday morning – but it is not clear when the Aquaman actress will give evidence as Mr Depp’s cross-examination has taken almost two days longer than scheduled.
