Johnny Depp & Amber Heard New Court Documents

Though Johnny Depp and Amber Heard finalized their divorce in 2017, the drama between them refuses to die. In March 2019, Johnny filed a defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife over a Dec. 2018 op-ed in the ‘Washington Post.’ Amber wrote how she was a firsthand witness to ‘domestic abuse,’ to which Johnny – through these documents – claimed it was Amber who was the abusive one.

 

Johnny, in the first twelve pages of the documents, accused Amber of manufacturing the claims to ‘advance her career.’ The documents also accuse Amber of shattering the bones in his figure in a 2016 incident, while also accusing her of assaulting him after her 30th birthday. Johnny is seeking $50 million in damages, and Amber’s lawyers have dismissed this lawsuit as a ‘frivolous action’ aimed at silencing her.

Johnny Depp filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against Amber Heard on March 1, 2019. The actor took issue with Amber’s December 2018 op-ed in the Washington Post, as she claimed she ‘had the rare vantage point of seeing, in real time, how institutions protect men accused of abuse…’I spoke up against sexual violence — and faced our culture’s wrath. That has to change.’ Depp, through these documents, accused Amber of being the abusive one in the relationship and that she allegedly fabricated the domestic violence claims to ‘advance her career.’

In one of the 2019 court documents’ more explosive claim (pg. 10), Johnny claimed Amber broke his hand after throwing a vodka bottle at him in 2016. Johnny claimed that he needed to have the finer ‘surgically reattached,’ and that Amber allegedly spread ‘false accounts of the incident.’

Johnny and Amber finalized their divorce in 2017, ending a relationship that started in 2012. That year, Johnny split from French actress Vanessa Paradis, his partner of 14 years and mother of his two children. He began seeing Amber shortly afterwards. The two first met in 2009, when working on ‘The Rum Diary,’ a film adaptation of the novel by Johnny’s close friend, gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson.

People Magazine reported that the couple was engaged in January 2014, with Johnny seemingly confirming the engagement in an April 2014 interview. However, it was around that time that the relationship started to experience problems. The couple tied the knot at the actor’s private island in the Bahamas.

Prior to the divorce, the only drama the couple really experienced came when the couple failed to declare their two Yorkshire terriers, Pistol and Book, when entering Australia in 2015. The tiff ultimately resulted in an apology video. Around this time, while Johnny was filming ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales’ in 2015, he suffered an injury to his right hand. Reports said this injury occurred during an argument, with Depp allegedly punching a wall.
