Things are getting juicier with each day in court!
Johnny Depp and Amber Heard headed back to court on Thursday for day four of the 57-year-old’s libel trial against The Sun publisher, News Group Newspapers (NGN), and executive editor Dan Wootton over an article that referred to him as a “wife beater” in April 2018.

One of the more shocking revelations to come out of London’s High Court this week was that the Pirates Of The Caribbean star did in fact headbutt his ex, but explained it was accidental. This comes after a photograph of Heard’s alleged injuries following the incident, which included a bruised eye and tufts of her hair being removed, were shown to the court.
The fight, which occurred in December 2015, came after allegations that Depp had been sleeping with an ex-girlfriend. Also submitted to evidence in court was a recording in which the then-couple discussed the incident, with the father of two saying:
“I head-butted you in the f**king…..forehead. That doesn’t break a nose.”
Sasha Wass, QC for The Sun, cross-examined Depp and said:
“You lost your temper. You threw a decanter. You punched the walls, slapped Miss Heard, grabbed her by the hair.”
He replied:
“No.”
After Wass continued recounting the alleged incident, Johnny added:
“This injury that she would’ve suffered is not consistent with the photographs that she has given to the court. She was swinging wildly at me, and I … from behind, as I was walking away from the argument to my office, she was hitting me in the neck, ear, back, everything.”
Demonstrating with his arms how he says he took hold of Heard, Depp explained:
“I turned to cover my head and she was swinging quite wildly so the only thing I could do in that situation was either to run or to try to get hold of her, to get my arms around her to stop her flailing and punching me, so I did so, as I did so it seems there was a collision.”
He concluded:
“That is the only collision and the only potential injury that Ms Heard could have had, there is no way I did as she said and broke her nose. She immediately said ‘you headbutted me’, and in that moment when I tried to grab her around her arms and her body to control the violence, she immediately said ‘you headbutted me’ and screamed and ran away.”

A second alleged assault from a year later was also brought up on Thursday, in which the actor is accused of throwing a champagne bottle at his wife’s head in April 2016 at her 30th birthday party in Los Angeles. This altercation was reportedly brought on over the so-called “defecation incident” in their bed the following day.
While on the stand, Depp explained he pulled up to his wife’s birthday party two hours late after receiving bad financial news from his accountants, and admitted he went to bed after her guests had gone home.
A confrontation reportedly escalated between them, and Amber says Johnny threw a magnum champagne bottle at her, threw her to the floor several times, and left her a note before leaving which read: “Happy F**king Birthday.” He claims the birthday girl had been “drinking heavily” and attacked him while he was reading in bed, punching him in the face four times before he grabbed her arms to stop her.
He says the next day, Heard or one of her friends “defecated” in their marital bed, denying that their small dog Boo could have been responsibly for the feces. He did admit Amber’s friend iO Tillet Wright could have been responsible, and he was not certain that it was his wife, but did add she told their building manager it was “just a harmless prank,” which is the point he “resolved” to divorce her.
It was claimed by Wass the Jack Sparrow portrayer called his wife “Amber Turd” and “Amber in the Dumps,” writing in one text message:
“At least the photos are hilarious.”

Another salacious detail to come out of court on Thursday was information about Amber’s relationship with Elon Musk, which Johnny says occurred while they were still married. Text messages from the actor to Lady GaGa‘s ex-fiancé Christian Carino were presented to the court where he wrote:
“I’ll show him things he’s never seen before like the other side of his d**k when I slice it off.”
Though Musk insists their relationship only began after she filed for divorce, the 57-year-old says it was an “extra-marital affair.” In another message to Carino, Depp wrote:
“She’s begging for global humiliation. She’s gonna get it. I’m gonna need your texts about San Francisco brother…I’m sorry to even ask…. But she sucked Mollusk’s [a reference to the SpaceX billionaire] crooked d*** and he gave her some sh**ty lawyers.”
He also referenced her role in Aquaman, writing:
“I want her off that WB film.”
When asked about these texts in the final round of cross-examination, Depp shared:
“Mr Carino was someone who was very interested in being an agent of mine at the time. That petition I believe was made years later. I did not orchestrate [it.]”
Phew, there’s a lot to unpack here!! Thoughts, Perezcious readers?? Let us know (below) in the comments!!
