Johnny Depp returned to the stand on Wednesday to admit the relationship was fraught with alcohol, drug and physical abuse... but he wasn't talking about himself.
On day 6 of the defamation trial, the actor was asked about Heard's drug use; he said she was"quite fond" of MDMA and magic mushrooms, claiming he had seen her take the former about 20 times during their relationship, and the latter around seven times.Asked about her drinking, he said she could easily put away two bottles of wine on a given evening; he said he once asked her if she wanted to join him in sobriety — to help and support him — and she said no.
He reiterated he had never struck a woman in his life, and insisted he would never hit someone for insulting a tattoo. He said Heard encouraged him to get one of her name too, which he eventually did; ironically it was shortly after that, he said, that"everything started going sideways."
