Amber Heard

-

Aquaman actress Amber Heard has been called to the witness stand to testify against ex-husband Johnny Depp. She alleged that the actor repeatedly hit her when he was either drunk or on drugs.

Heard said that he struck her for the first time in 2012 after she laughed at a tattoo on his arm that said “Wino.” She alleged that Depp slapped her on the face for laughing.

The actress said: “I just stared at him kind of laughing, thinking that he was going to start laughing too, to tell me it was a joke, but he didn’t. He slapped me again. I will never forget it.”

Heard also said that the trial has been difficult for her as every day she has been required to relive her past.

Depp has continuous­ly denied any allegation­s of abuse against Heard or anyone else. He said that this claim never made sense to him. Winona Ryder, who had been in a relationsh­ip with

Depp during the 1990s, said that Depp was never abusive to her.

Heard also said that Depp had a pattern of being loving and caring and then suddenly he would become abusive in angry outbursts.

#AmberHeard­IsALiar trended on Twitter. @bRI_MIXX tweeted: “I have PTSD. I spoke out in court against my abuser and he went to prison. This isn’t how you act. Fake crying, no tears, switching emotions. It’s sickening and she’s the reason no one believes women!!”

@SylvSynops­is tweeted: “Ever seen someone cry without tears and then have a completely straight face void of emotion 10 seconds later? This acting is worse than her performanc­e in Aquaman.”

@Missa_Beet said: “Watching Amber Heard, so much of what Dr. Curry said is on display. The flowery language that really doesn’t carry much substance, speaking in extremes and changing from calm recollecti­on to emotional highs

quickly.”
