Amber Heard told the court that she had left Johnny Depp’s private island with his daughter Lily-Rose. This was after the actor angrily told her he “could kill her” during a heated argument.
Ms Heard testified that she had accompanied Mr Depp and his children to the Bahamas in July 2013 for a final trip on his yacht before he sold it to Harry Potter author JK Rowling.
But she said that Mr Depp, who was drinking on the trip and hiding alcohol in coffee cups, allegedly grew angry when his daughter began asking Ms Heard questions about her father’s drinking.
“Lily-Rose was crying, it became like a panic attack with rapid breathing, crying and lots of questions. I was holding her and comforting her and within a few seconds, I realised that he had shifted his attention on me and seemed very angry.
“He asked Lily-Rose to leave, she left crying and Johnny starts accusing me of, like, telling on him and calling him a drunk in front of his kids. I hadn’t done that and had actually tried to protect Johnny, it was not my place to share that with anyone, especially his daughter.”
She told the jury that while they were on the boat, Mr Depp had slammed her up against the wall of a bedroom cabin by her neck and told her that “he could f***ing kill me” and said that she was “embarrassing” herself in front of his family.
