Heard fires back at ex Depp

AMBER Heard’s reps are fighting back after her ex-husband, Johnny Depp, denied physically abusing her in a new British GQ interview.

Heard’s rep sent a statement from her attorney to Page Six saying, “It is outrageous that GQ never spoke to any of the multiple witnesses to Mr. Depp’s physical abuse of Ms. Heard prior to publishing its article. If GQ had done even a basic investigation into Mr. Depp’s claims, it would have quickly realized that his statements are entirely untrue.”

The author of the GQ piece wrote in the profile: “This isn’t a piece claiming to know with any authority about what happened” between Depp and Heard, but was an opportunity for Depp to tell his side of the story.

Heard’s team added, “Mr. Depp has blatantly disregarded the parties’ confidentiality agreement and yet has refused to allow Ms. Heard to respond . . . despite repeated requests that she be allowed to do so.”

The statement went on, “Mr. Depp is shamefully continuing his psychological abuse of Ms. Heard, who has attempted to put a very painful part of her life firmly in her past. One need only look at the physical evidence to draw the proper conclusion.”

In the interview, Depp said the allegations have turned him from “Cinderella to Quasimodo” and “the thing that hurt me is being presented as something that you’re really as far away from as you could possibly get. To harm someone you love? No, it didn’t, it couldn’t even sound like me.”

The couple settled their divorce in 2017. In 2016, a TMZ report showing Heard with a bruised face included the allegation that Depp hit her with an iPhone, which his side denied. Heard did not file a police report at the time.

Depp told British GQ: “Why didn’t that person speak to the police? I mean, they spoke to the police, but the police saw nothing and they offered her an emergency medical technician. She said no.”

An attorney for Depp said, “In his GQ interview, Mr. Depp is simply defending himself against Ms. Heard’s lingering false abuse accusations.”

A rep for GQ didn’t immediately comment.
