A photo of Amber Heard with Johnny Depp and Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards was submitted to a London court on Tuesday, trying to prove that the actress was lying about an alleged beating she received from the actor.
“Do you agree that there is absolutely no wound on your face in this photo?” Depp’s attorney Eleanor Laws asked Heard, who was at the witness stand for her second consecutive day of testimony in Depp’s sensational libel case against a British tabloid.
The “Aquaman” actress, who smiles as she stands between Depp and Richards, with her younger sister Whitney on the other side of the rocker, in the snapshot, has said she was assaulted by the actor the night before the March photo. of 2013.
At first, he heard Depp’s lawyer say he couldn’t tell from the photograph if it showed his injuries, and then added, “It appears my lip was slightly swollen.”
Laws asked, “Does this photo show you before or after he was hit by Mr. Depp?”
I heard them reply, “What time? There were many incidents in March.”
Depp is suing The Sun for referring to him as a “handcuff puncher” in a 2018 headline based on Heard’s claims that he repeatedly assaulted her throughout their relationship. Depp denies hitting Heard.
