Amber Heard has filed her long-awaited appeal, arguing that allowing the case to go to trial was the first of many errors
Dougherty also spoke to the op-ed, which he said Heard’s attorneys edited to adhere to the nondisclosure agreement she signed settling her divorce. Because she is an ACLU ambassador, the organization suggested she write the essay and pitched it to the Washington. The ACLU, Dougherty continued, supported Heard’s inclusion of details about her marriage to Depp, feeling they made for a “strong” draft. But ultimately, her legal team scrubbed those references.
Also on May 2, the court viewed prerecorded testimony from Heard’s former personal nurse, Erin Falati, who specializes in addiction. Sheto “discord” in the marriage and said Heard’s anxiety had spiked around the time she met Depp in Australia in 2015. Toward the end of that year, Falati recalled seeing Heard’s lip bleeding after an argument with Depp. She also spoke about photos Heard had texted her late one night. “I’m not an expert,” Falati told the jury.
Though Heard was not a patient of Hughes’s, she reportedly confided in the psychologist about her relationship with Depp. Hughes testified that Heard had told her about multiple instances of “,” per Deadline. Hughes described the assaults as occurring when “Mr. Depp was drunk or high.” She added, “He threw her on the bed, ripped off her nightgown and tried to have sex with her.” She also testified that Heard told her Depp had “forced her to give him oral sex when he was angry.
The criticism and the accusations escalated to blowout fights where, Heard said, Depp would become destructive. “He would throw a glass, or turn over a table, or hit the wall, then he would hit the wall really close to my head, screaming at me,” she said. “Then he would disappear, get sober, tell me he was done drinking,” she continued, “and he’d go back to this wonderful … unbelievably nice, sensitive, kind, warm, generous, interesting, funny man that I loved. He would make me feel so loved.
“I wanted to want to leave him, and I wanted him to get better,” she recalled, through tears. When he sobered up, Heard remembered, “He would say, ‘You saved my life, baby girl, you saved my life.’”On day two of Heard’s testimony, she painted a picture of an increasingly turbulent relationship. Heard said the numerous fights she and Depp had often started when Depp accused her of cheating on him with various castmates. Leading up to the flight from Boston to L.A.
She loved him, she said, and with doctors enlisted to help treat his dependencies, she believed things could improve. But by December 2014, “I would try to stand up for myself,” she told the court. “I would push back, I would push him off of me. … I would yell at him and scream at him, I would call him ugly names.” Adding that she was ashamed of that behavior, she said: “It felt like nothing I could do would change his sobriety patterns … nothing I did made him stop hitting me.”The Danish Girl.
Heard doesn’t remember how that fight ended, only that she took two sleeping pills at some point. When she woke up the next day, she said she found the hallways smeared with mashed potatoes and a mixture of blood and paint — the messages Depp admitted to leaving her throughout the house. She said she found him with his hand wrapped in bandanas: “He took them down and said, ‘Look what you made me do, I did this for you,’” she told the jury.
Heard said that she and Depp had spent a month apart after the April 2016 fight and reunited around the time Depp’s mother died — at which point Depp became “obsessed with dog poop” and talked about “scientists and DNA and feces,” according to Heard. During one argument about the poop incident, Heard said she called a friend to try to explain what had happened, and when Depp started to get angry, the friend told her on speakerphone that she wasn’t safe in the house.
The court listened to audio in which the couple taunt and belittle one another at length, mocking each other’s film and TV roles. Heard invited Depp repeatedly to “suck my dick,” and he called her a “spoiled fucking brat.” Vazquez asked Heard, “Mr. Depp got you that role in, didn’t he?” Heard denied it. Depp’s attorney showed a photo taken during the couple’s honeymoon — when, Heard previously testified, Depp had wrapped his shirt around her neck — that shows Depp’s bruised face.
