Jealous Depp kicked me over Franco 'affair' - Heard

Dec 24,2021 1:23 pm

Amber Heard says a perceived affair with fellow actor James Franco led to ex-husband Johnny Depp assaulting her on a cross-country flight in 2014.

Taking The Stand for a second day as part of a multi-million dollar defamation trial, Ms Heard cast Mr Depp as deeply troubled by jealousy and drugs.

Mr Depp is suing Ms Heard for $50m (£40m) over an article in which She Said she was a victim of abuse.

She is countersuing for $100m.

On Thursday, Ms Heard alleged that much of her ex-husband's anger was caused by his belief that she was seeing James Franco , whom She Said Mr Depp " hated".

Mr Franco starred alongside Ms Heard in Pineapple Express and The Adderall Diaries.

That jealousy, she claimed, led an angry Mr Depp to repeatedly question her on a flight from Boston to Los Angeles , in which he allegedly kicked her.

" He just kicked me in the back. I fell on The Floor , " She Said . " No One said anything. No One did anything. It's like you could hear a pin drop on that plane. "

The Court also heard a recording allegedly of Mr Depp on The Flight , which Ms Heard said showed him " howling" while suffering from The Effects of drug use.

Jurors have repeatedly heard about The Incident on The Flight . In his own testimony, Mr Depp said that he took Oxycodone pills and fell asleep to avoid Ms Heard.

Ms Heard alleged she had The Fight with Mr Depp after a " famous musician" was allowed to spend The Night with his daughter, who was about 14 at The Time .

She added that Lily-Rose was also introduced to marijuana around This Time . " She was So Young , " Ms Heard said. " I felt protective. "

Previously in the Depp-Heard trial

Additionally, Ms Heard also detailed their surprise engagement and a previous discussion over a prenuptial agreement with Mr Depp.

She claims that Mr Depp told her that " the only Way Out of this is death".

" I didn't care Either Way , but I did feel it [the agreement] would eliminate suspicion or doubt, and it would make things easier, " she added.

Earlier in The Trial , Mr Depp claimed he never struck Ms Heard, or any women. Instead, He Said she was often abusive herself and had a " a need for conflict".

The defamation cases stems from a December 2018 opinion piece in the Washington Post, in which She Said she was a victim of abuse but did not name Mr Depp.

His lawyers have said that the piece " incalculably" damaged his career prospects.
