Johnny Depp / Amber Heard Defamation Trial

Amber Heards problem is that she was very poor in the witness box and handled the cross examination very badly, that did not impress the jury who returned a unanimous verdict.

Blimey Ali08, steady on! She's only a somewhat famous actress, not Meghan Markle.

If she wasn’t famous before, she certainly is now - but for all the wrong reasons.

sorry I was obviously being a bit dim re why they called Kate Moss

His ex girlfriend to say she wasn’t abused

He's certainly been through a few women, hasn't he.
I wonder why no-one stays with him?

because he is a bit weird and creepy and likes women to look pre pubescent?

Because he’s a narcissistic, drug/alcohol addled, self indulgent ego trip?

He doesn't appear to stay with them! He left Kate Moss for Vanessa Paradis then left her for Amber.

He's very kind actually. He regularly visits children's wards in hospital. As Jack Sparrow.

He donated 2 million dollars to Great Ormond Street after they treated his very ill daughter a few years ago.

Being kind in some areas of his life doesn’t necessarily translate into general kindness. I acknowledge this was a toxic relationship but -

He has been the one to walk away from some of them. Why assume nobody would stay with him? The mother of his kids was with him for 14 years and there is speculation that Amber Heard may have been the reason although JD said that his continual working away made it hard to conduct a relationship. Vanessa has never given the reason but report are that it was and is amicable between them with their emphasis on the kids.

I have taken only a passing interest in this case, but the impression I have got is that it was a case of six of one to half a dozen of the other and they are both unpleasant people who probably deserved each other.

Oh, for goodness' sake!

I agree, M0nica

Folie a duex
Hope I spelled it correctly. It’s where two people could be ok with a different partner but together these two are lethal

Yes, that is probably right.

Thanks for the sp correction Callistemon, it didn’t look correct and I should have checked

I don't usually correct spellings and grammar, Iam64. Apologies ?

Yes, I can think of other couples where that would apply.

I did ask Callistemon and appreciated the correction. It’s definitely A Thing. I agree Amber H didn’t cover herself in glory, or help the cause of women locked into abusive relationships. It seems crazy to conclude Depp wasn’t abusive when it’s clear they had a toxic mutually abusive relationship.

The difference in the UK and US cases was that AH was allowed to present more evidence in the UK abd the UK case was decided on the law by a judge. In the US it was decided by ordinary jurors - this is what I understood.
Here's one of many articles about it:
