Johnny Depp gave evidence in a London court as part of a libel trial on Tuesday, denying claims that he hit ex-wife Amber Heard and accusing her of assaulting him and depicting him as a 'monster.' More details:

He accused her of assaulting him and depicting him as a"monster."

Depp is suing the tabloid's publisher, News Group Newspapers, and its executive editor, Dan Wootton, over an 2018 story alleging he was violent and abusive to then-wife Heard. Depp strongly denies the claim. Witnesses are likely to include Depp’s former partners, Vanessa Paradis and Winona Ryder, both of whom have submitted statements supporting the Hollywood star.

Describing one incident in which Heard claims he hit her, Depp said the opposite was true. "As things tended to do, escalated and got physical, ending with a bit of assault. Ms. Heard struck me," he said. Depp's lawyers said the judge would have to decide between two starkly opposing accounts of the relationship. "There is no real room for a middle ground here," they said. "One side is plainly lying, and to an extraordinary extent.

Good

I mean he’s crazy, no doubt, but she’s like jealous, center of attention, gold digging wife that should never have been even a girlfriend crazy. Good luck, dude.

without reading anything about this case-/who wld i think was 'right' or wrong? what wld u say?

Amber behind closed doors

If 2020 was a couple 🙄

realamberheard She needs to rot in jail !!! Even her own family is embarrassed knowing what a despicable person she is .. well accept her sister who is as worse as she is.

People perhaps forget she was previously arrested for aggressively yanking around her then girlfriend at the airport. You’d imagine the one time she was arrested was not the first time she was physical with her. She’s got anger issues. Depp is just an immature sad sack.

AmberHeard is a true monster but some people in Hollywood praise this disgusting human being AmberHeardIsAnAbuser

Just stop already

Turdminator

she's the ugly monster

They were both wrong. It’s called a toxic relationship. He said ,she said. You will truly never know what happened unless you were there.

justiceforjohnnydepp

I can't believe he would go after her like this, typical.

I believe him. She's like my brothers missus. She's pretty af but inside her is something malevolent

A whole shit ton of Twitter kangaroo court supporting, outrage snorting, saber rattling tattling babbling bandwagon jumping, virtue signaling soapbox junky flunkies owe Johnny Depp an apology. Quick in line to accuse he, they stay away from the line to say “Sorry, excuse me.”

He was probably trying to drink her blood!

That’s true. Depp was unfairly treated due to false allegations. These are the sides we fail to see in Metoomovement where unfair treatment is done to actual victims

This whole thing is such an unbelievable mess. It's best to stay entirely out of it and let courts handle it.

Yup... He should sue their lazy asses. Click air journalism

mhh,

Fuck Amber Heard

She is a vicious vile very sick vendictive abusive creature. Johnny Depp is innocent. istandwithjohnnydepp

he was out of country travelling when he was accused i saw somewhere posted he is not abusive im 100% with him

A lot of people go their whole lives without being accused of domestic violence. Maybe the fact that Johnny Depp is a shameless media whore has something to do with why he is being accused of domestic violence.

I don’t care either way. I guess I stopped caring about him when he stopped caring about himself. Just a shell of a real person. Who knows if he’s really abusive?

Hoping our beloved pirate wins.

He better win.

hope he wins

You can't publish a smear piece and then this. You can't have it both ways. Stop being terrible.

They were both as bad as each other, the two of them physically fought when fuelled by alcohol (as various videos show) and should never have been together. Very volatile relationship they are better off apart.

Theres plenty of proof shes the real monster. JusticeForJohnnyDepp blacklistamberheard recastamberheard She deserves to rot in hell for what she did to johnny. Audio and cameras dont lie

Hey, I bet he wishes he never met her.

poor baby 🙄

McClain_on_NFL Oh so she a Karen😹😹

I truly believe that she is something else I bet you won't get married no more

The audio tapes were more than enough to let us know what kind of abusive monster she was, and still is. I am 100% against physical and mental abuse, and will never stand for it under any circumstance.

she's an awful person. I hope she never works again and faces consequences

Then why did he give her an 8 million dollar settlement to which she donated all of it to charity

Johnny The Saint... Come on!!!

Was this before are after she shit in his bed?

Men are much better at acting than women

wouldn't surprise me if he has post traumatic stress disorder from her attacks and slander

McClain_on_NFL So would he say her claim is 'fightin' words?

BelieveAllMen

This is a case of two people who may or may not be toxic apart but are 100% toxic together. I feel sorry for both of them.

I believe him

Amber Heard is pure evil, bitch makes me scared to get married

Well gosh, gee, golly, if Johnny Depp 'strongly denies' it, then it must be true.

There's a special place in hell for people like Amber Heard

Of course he does.

Please disappear, Amber.

Amber Turd. 🛏 💩
