Amber Heard said she knew she should leave Johnny Depp the first time he hit her, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"I knew I couldn't just forgive him, right, because that means it will happen again. Like, I've seen the health class videos," Heard told jurors through tears as she took the stand in Depp's libel lawsuit against her. "I was heartbroken." Ultimately, though, she couldn't bring herself to break up. She walked away after being slapped, but a few days later Depp came back with an apology, a few cases of her favourite wine, and a promise he'd never do it again, Heard testified.
"I wanted to believe him, so I chose to," she said.
Depp, 58, is suing Heard for libel in Fairfax County Circuit Court after she wrote a December 2018 op-ed in The Washington Post describing herself as "a public figure representing domestic abuse." The article never mentions Depp by name, but Depp's lawyers say he was defamed nevertheless because it clearly referred to accusations she made in 2016 during their divorce proceedings.
Heard took the stand for the first time Wednesday afternoon in the now four-week trial. She described to jurors how they met while filming a movie and fell in love.
Despite their 22-year age difference, Heard said there was an instant connection when Depp met with her as he considered her for a role in his film "The Rum Diary." "I was a no-name actor. I was 22. He was twice my age. He's this world famous actor and here we are getting along about obscure books, old blues" music, said Heard, now 36.
While they had chemistry during filming of the movie, she said they didn't begin dating until doing a press tour for the film's release in 2011. At the outset, they kept their relationship a secret.
"We weren't doing normal life stuff. ... We were in this bubble of secrecy, and it felt like a warm glow," she said.
She said the first act of physical violence came as she was looking at one of his tattoos and couldn't read it. She laughed when Depp told her it said "Wino" — an alteration to a tattoo he had made when he'd been dating actor Winona Ryder.
Heard said she laughed after he slapped her, thinking it must be a joke. He then slapped her two more times, the third time knocking her off balance, Heard said.
Depp, who has already taken the stand and testified for four days, told jurors a different version of the story.
"It didn't happen," he said of the alleged assault. "Why would I take such great offense to someone making fun of a tattoo on my body? That allegation never made any sense to me." Heard's testimony came after a psychologist hired by her lawyers testified that Heard suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder from multiple acts of abuse, including sexual violence, inflicted on her by Depp.
Depp testified he never struck Heard and that he was the abuse victim. He said he was punched and struck by her on many occasions, and that she threw things at him. He described Heard as having a "need for conflict." Psychologist Dawn Hughes, in her testimony Tuesday, acknowledged that Heard at times perpetrated physical violence against Depp, but said it paled in comparison to violence she suffered, which left her intimidated and fearful for her safety.
During cross-examination Wednesday, Hughes acknowledged that she wasn't making factual determinations that Depp assaulted Heard on specific occasions. But she testified that Heard's account of her experiences are consistent with accounts of those experiencing domestic violence.
Hughes said the sexual assaults included Heard being forced by Depp to perform oral sex. On cross-examination, though, Depp's lawyers noted that, during psychological testing performed as part of Hughes' evaluation, Heard denied being forced to perform oral sex.
Hughes said Heard initially was framing the encounters as consensual but "angry sex." "She wasn't framing them as physical force," Hughes said.
The trial continues to capture public attention. More than 100 people were lined up Wednesday before 7 a.m. — three hours before proceedings began — outside the courthouse for the 100 seats made available in the courtroom. Most were Depp supporters and fans.

Swift extended her gratitude to her family and friends. "I know that words are supposed to be my “thing,” but I will never be able to find the words to thank my mom and my dad, and my brother, Austin, for the sacrifices they made every day so that I could go from singing in coffee houses to standing up here with you all today because no words would ever be enough," she said in her speech.
She also urged the students to make the most of their choices. "Life can be heavy - especially if you try to carry it all at once... all the grudges, all the updates on your ex.... You get to pick what your life has time and room for." the 32-year-old said.

On the 17th day of Amber Heard vs Johnny Depp trial, the 'Aquaman' actor has claimed that her then husband 'tried to kill' her. 'This is a man who tried to kill me. Of course. It's scary. He's also my husband,' she said, while being cross questioned by Depp's lawyer on the alleged assault she faced in Australia in 2015. Heard has claimed that the actor sexually assaulted her with a liquor bottle, pushing it against her pubic bone.
However, Depp's lawyer has countered her allegation, saying that she had attacked Mr. Depp with a bottle due to which he lost the tip of his finger. 'That is incorrect,' she responded. 'I didn't assault Johnny ever. I couldn't,' she added.
Heard was also grilled on why she gifted a knife to the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' in 2012 amid the cycles of alleged assaults she was facing. She responded that she had given him the knife as a birthday present early in their relationship. 'I wasn't worried he was going to stab me with it when I gave it to him. That's for certain,' she said.
The lawyer also countered her testimony in which she had alleged that she was injured on her forearms, feet and jaw during the assault and asked why there were no medical records reflecting treatment for any of those injuries. Heard revealed that she did not seek treatment for her bruises she received from Depp.
Heard's two-day cross examination in Johnny Depp's $50 million defamation lawsuit ended on Tuesday (May 17th). She has been sued over a 2018 op-ed in Washington Post, in which she depicted herself to be a 'public figure representing domestic abuse.' Depp charged her even though his name wasn't mentioned in her article.
The stars met on the sets of 'The Rum Diary' in 2009 and started dating a year later. They got married in 2015. A year later, Heard filed for divorce, accusing Depp of physical assault while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Their divorce was finalized in 2017.

Amber Heard resumed her testimony in Depp's $50 million defamation trial against her on Monday (May 16), post a 10-day break. She spoke extensively about the final months of her marriage with the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actor, how she tried to cover her scars with makeup and how the ongoing trial was affecting her mental health.
During the testimony, Heard claimed that she begged her ex-husband to stop calling her 'a liar' and to stop the smear campaign against her. “I was begging Johnny to not make me prove... to sit on this stand and to sit in front of you all to prove and talk about [the abuse],” she said. “I was trying to get him to not call me a liar as everything I have said to date and everything I have said now is the truth,” she added.
Heard also claimed that she didn't file criminal charges or a police report against Depp as she wanted to protect him and not bring out the case in the public eye. "I didn't want this to hurt Johnny," she said.
The 'Aquaman' actor says the public feud with Depp has been a 'torture' to her as she receives numerous accusations from his supporters saying she's lying about the abuse. "I want to move on with my life. I have a baby. I want to move on. I want to move on. I want Johnny to move on too, I want him to leave me alone," she said.
Depp sued his ex-wife over an op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post, in which she claimed that she was a domestic abuse survivor. Though she didn't name the 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' actor in her article, Depp sued her. During her testimony, Heard explained her intention behind publishing the 2018 op-ed and said, "It's not about Johnny. The only one who thought it was about Johnny is Johnny. It's about me and what happened to me after Johnny, it is about me after I escaped my marriage, it is about me and my life and what I endured once I got a TRO (temporary restraining order) and moved on with my life. It was about what happened to me after. The only one who made it about him, ironically, is Johnny."

Margot Robbie is being considered for a role in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 6’, which is still in the development stages. The last instalment of the mega-popular franchise was released five years ago, which starred Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow as well as Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, and Penélope Cruz and others.
Depp has been out of the franchise since his ex-wife Amber Heard accused him of physical abuse. The actor, on the other hand, stated that the charges were false. Johnny Depp and Heard are currently in court after the actor filed a defamation lawsuit against the Aquaman actor.
Fans have protested bringing back Depp for 'Pirates of the Caribbean 6' with two ongoing petitions. Meanwhile, a new report about the film has surfaced regarding the movie. According to The Sunday Times, producer Jerry Bruckheimer stated that ‘Pirates 6’ is underway.
However, the producer said that two screenplays for 'Pirates of the Caribbean 6' are in the process- one which featured Margot Robbie and the other does not. When asked if Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) would return, Bruckheimer said no, at least not at this point. He added that the future was yet to be decided.
Even if the one script has been written with Johnny Depp's role in mind, the actor stated in court during the trial that he will not return to the franchise even if he is offered $300 million.
