Johnny Depp, recently, appeared in court to defend himself amid a tabloid’s claims that he is a wife-beater.
On Tuesday, Depp’s ex-wife, Amber Heard also appeared in court as a guest and not as a witness.
While he was on the stand, the Pirates of the Caribbean actor said that he decided to divorce Heard after she defecated on their bed. Depp also called the Aquaman actress a narcissistic sociopath.
Depp said that Heard or one of her friends defecating on their bed was the final straw in their rocky marriage. But Heard reportedly tried to dismiss the incident as a harmless prank.
The Edward Scissorhands actor also vehemently denied that he would ever strike a woman, more so his wife. He said that hitting a woman is against his moral code.
Several of Depp’s friends and exes also came to his defense months ago. Vanessa Paradis and Winona Ryder confirmed that the actor was never abusive towards them. They also said that they don’t think Depp is capable of hurting a woman.
During his court appearance, Depp stressed that Heard was the one that was abusive to him. He said that Heard once threw a vodka bottle at her. And the actress also allegedly punched Depp on the face several times while they were on a private jet. And as he was heading to the toilet, his ex-wife reportedly punched him again.
According to the actor, Heard also made an offensive comment about his appearance during her brief conversation with Jerry Judge, the former head of Depp’s security.
The Rum Diary star reportedly called Depp a fat old man, and she also said that she doesn’t know why she married him.
Depp didn’t lie about taking drugs and he also said that he has probably tried every single drug known to men. However, this still doesn’t confirm that he was ever abusive to Heard.
The actor’s lawyer also reiterated their previous claims that Heard had two extramarital affairs or an extra-relationship affair with Elon Musk and James Franco during their marriage.
Heard’s lawyer, on the other hand, presented a text message sent by the actor where he called himself “the monster.” Depp claimed that this was his alter ego.
Meanwhile, the actor also acknowledged that it was his fault for not focusing on the warning signs. Depp said that he thought Heard was really in love with him and that she was interested in his work. However, the actress had a different agenda.
