After the horrendous fight in Australia in March 2015 in which, in one way or another, Johnny Depp found himself with the tip of a severed finger, the actor of "Pirates of the Caribbean" and his then wife Amber Heard " they fell in love again. " He had detoxed from the drug and the couple began to make plans for the future including "the possibility" of having children. Shortly thereafter, however, everything returned to the way it was before and worse than before, according to Amber's deposition at the libel trial that her ex-husband brought against her because of an opinion piece in the "Washington Post" in which she was self-reported as a victim of domestic violence without mentioning the name of her attacker.

The trial resumed after a week-long hiatus in the Fairfax County courtroom, the same where the US capital's newspaper is printed.

Welcomed by an ecstatic crowd of fans like in the heyday when he was Hollywood 's highest paid star, Depp threw kisses in the air: "They're all related."

In the classroom, quite different music: in a litany of violence of all kinds, including cigarettes extinguished on the skin, sganascioni, verbal insults and throwing objects, the former Jack Sparrow of Hollywood did not really make a good impression if it must be believe Amber's tale, which on the other hand will be questioned in the next few hours by Depp's legal team as they prepare for a ferocious cross-examination over the couple's last, turbulent months of marriage.

Meanwhile, the birthday tale of horrors. "Johnny threw a magnum bottle of champagne at me," Heard said of her 30th birthday party in spring 2016. Depp, under the guise of being busy at work, was missing for days, drugs ”, and on the evening of April 21, despite the insistence of his wife, he did not show up. Back home late, there was the umpteenth fight with a lot of " blows of all kinds " and the launch of the bottle that landed on a painting that she was close to, leaving a huge hole in the canvas. Less than a month later the two, at least verbally, had reconciled and the plan was to go to the Met gala as guests of Ralph Lauren. Needless to say, at the last moment Johnny canceled and Amber showed up alone at the party, accidentally finding herself side by side with Elon Musk who was there with her mom. "He seemed like a gentleman to me," Amber said in the courtroom, adding that from then on she and the Tesla and Space X boss became "friends."

Heard and Musk then had a brief affair during their divorce from Depp in 2017, the same year that the curtain also fell on the story with the current richest man in the world.
