Johnny Depp accused Amber Heard of name calling and making demeaning comments about him at times in their relationship that would escalate to arguments.
Actor Johnny Depp took the stand Tuesday in his libel lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard, saying her domestic abuse allegations against him were disturbing, heinous and "not based in any species of truth."He added:"Ms. Heard was unable to be wrong. It just didn't happen. She couldn't be wrong."
He said he was constantly being told about how wrong he was about various aspects of his life, including his 30-year acting career.Violence would often ensue, sometimes with a slap or a shove from Heard or his wife throwing a television remote control or a glass of wine in his face, Depp said. "There were times when I would just go and lock myself in the bathroom or a place where she couldn't get to," Depp said.
"Why did I stay? I stayed I suppose because my father stayed ... I didn't want to fail," Depp said."I wanted to try to make it work. I thought maybe I could help her. I thought maybe I could bring her around." Depp sued Heard after she wrote a 2018 op-ed piece in The Washington Post in which she referred to herself as a"public figure representing domestic abuse."
