Prohibited substances, alcohol, treason with James Franco and "howling": new details of the trial of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard shocked the public, reports Spletnik.
The Royal Court of London has begun hearings in a libel case in which 57-year-old Johnny Depp accuses his 34-year-old ex-wife Amber Heard. Both he and she personally attended the meeting, which revealed to the world the details of their marriage. Recall that the actress, having filed documents for divorce in May 2016, accused Depp of domestic violence: the dispute is still ongoing about the veracity of her statements circulated by the media. The actor is also suing the tabloid The Sun, who publicly called him a wife-beating man in an article.
Johnny Depp answered questions from the court and lawyers, describing in detail about the affair and marriage with Amber Heard, whom she considers to be an abuser in their union.
In one of his testimonies in the libel case against the publisher The Sun, Depp recalled meeting Hurd while working on The Rum Diary.
“Then she was very friendly and wanted to tell me about a recent breakup with her partner. If I knew then what I know now, I would see warning signs, but I did not see them. She (Amber Heard. - Ed.) Was beautiful and was very interested in me and my work, as it seemed to me then. And I bought it. Later I realized that she had a goal - to marry me in order to make a career and get financial benefits, and she knew how to do it. For example, at that time she repeatedly told me that she admired my films. However, later, when the relationship began, she admitted that she had not seen any of my roles. She knew what she wanted, and I was an easy target. Now I’m convinced that she came into my life in order to take away everything that is possible from me, and then destroy what is left, ”Depp said about Hurd.
Depp told the court that Amber has an unhealthy psyche: she is "a calculating woman-narcissist, sociopath suffering from borderline personality disorder." The actor said that all this was confirmed by the psychotherapist, to whom he and Amber turned.

The Pirates of the Caribbean movie franchise actor, who stopped acting as Captain Jack Sparrow after his scandalous divorce from Heard, denied in court charges of his propensity for destructive and violent behavior. Depp stated that he never had anger management problems, and when asked by a lawyer if Vanessa Paradis had called the police at least once in their 14 years of married life, Johnny replied that he had never. By the way, Paradis herself will testify in court via video link, like Winona Ryder - both of Depp's former lovers spoke in his defense.
In his testimony, Depp recalled many episodes of Amber's aggressive behavior. He said that she called him “weakling” and “spineless” because he “ran away” from fights with her. For example, I remembered one of the flights in early 2015.
“She hit me in the face several times. Then I headed to another part of the plane to leave her, but she followed me and hit her face and head again. I pushed her away from me and knocked her down. Then he grabbed a pillow and locked himself in the bathroom, where he slept all the time, ”Depp testified.
In the documents submitted to the court, Depp's defense reported the actress's infidelity: her affair with Elon Musk, according to Johnny's lawyers, began shortly after her marriage. Depp's attorney claims that Heard had at least two connections on the side during his marriage to Depp - with the mentioned founder of Tesla and actor James Franco.
But Depp's most discouraging revelation was the admission that he had decided to break up with Heard after he discovered feces in the couple's bed. The actor told the court that Hurd or one of her friends made him this unpleasant surprise, and she called the incident "a harmless joke."
Depp commented on the episodes previously mentioned in the media of his marriage to the actress, when she allegedly threw a bottle at him, as a result of which he cut his finger and also laid an unlit cigarette on his cheek.
“I couldn’t believe that we came to this,” Depp said.
On the second day, the court considered the incident that occurred between the spouses on board the plane flying from Boston to Los Angeles in May 2014. Then Depp, in a state of extreme alcohol and drug intoxication, allegedly attacked his wife, accusing her of cheating on him with James Franco, and then howling loudly and disconnecting in the toilet of the plane.
Depp denied shouting that Heard liked “fucking on set,” or making vulgar comments about her private parts and questioning her if she had sex with Franco.
“These are her fantasies,” said the actor.

However, an audio recording was presented in court, on which the actor literally howled like a wild animal. In turn, Johnny said that his behavior was not at all what he was accused of.
After that, The Sun's lawyer, Miss Sasha Wess, read out the message that Depp sent to his friend Paul Bettany on May 30, 2014.
“I drank all night until I picked up Amber to fly to Los Angeles last Sunday. This is disgusting, buddy. I haven't eaten anything for several days. I used powder. I drank half a bottle of whiskey, thousands of red bulls with vodka, pills, two bottles of champagne on the plane, ”she read.
Depp claimed that he was worried about Franco because his wife described the actor as "creepy and pesky" when she starred with him in the comedy "Pineapple Express: Sitting Smoking".
“She told me a lot of bad things about James Franco, that he tried to kiss her and made sexual innuendos. She said he was a bastard and a maniac or something. I suspected that Miss Heard was having an affair with Mr. Franco, and this was confirmed, ”said Johnny.
Depp persistently denied that he was aggressive towards his wife and publicly insulted her on the plane.
“Under such circumstances, I would not do that. It’s possible that something like this can get out of my mouth depending on what she would say before, but I didn’t get furious during the flight, ”he said.
The court also showed a photo of Depp lying unconscious on the floor, as well as a photo taken by Amber Heard, which showed whiskey, powder resembling cocaine, and a box of pills labeled “DD's property” at their home in Los Angeles. Angeles.
In court, the actor did not deny that there was cocaine in his box and he used it, and also stated that Amber herself often divided it into doses and took it. According to him, Hurd was often jealous of him and thought that he was cheating on her when, for example, he decided to stay at the hotel for the night.
At the same time, Depp's daughter Lily-rose believed that Hurd had a good influence on him and helped him fight alcoholism.
“Yes, then she thought so,” he confirmed this in court.
Regarding his messages to Paul Bettany, in which he wrote that he would burn his wife and then abused her stupid to make sure she was dead, or drown to make sure that she was not a witch, Depp replied that his sense of humor is a bit peculiarly.
