LONDON - Johnny Depp was a drug addict prone to violent rages and a misogynist who assaulted his wife and used abusive language about women, a London court heard on Monday as the actor’s libel trial against a British tabloid neared its end.The “Pirates of the Caribbean” star is suing News Group Newspapers, publishers of The Sun, and one of its journalists, Dan Wootton, over a 2018 article that called him a “wife beater”.
She read from an email Heard had sent to herself in 2013, before the couple married, in which she recorded her feelings about Depp’s drug-fuelled rages. The email was addressed to Depp but not sent to him. Wass quoted from a text Heard sent Depp in 2014. “I am scared, Johnny, so scared, I watch as this thing steals my life out from under me,” Heard wrote. “He steals my man from me and replaces him with something terrifying and unrecognisable.”
She said Heard denied cheating on Depp, and it was irrelevant, and that as a successful actress Heard was financially independent. Addressing one of the arguments made by Depp’s legal team - that no witness apart from Heard or her sister said they had seen Depp hit Heard - Wass said domestic violence took place behind closed doors.
