Johnny Depp and Amber Heard have been making headlines for their divorce that turned to domestic abuse row. The former husband and wife started accusing one another of being abusive in their marriage that only lasted for 18 months.
While the 33-year-old actress had previously released photos that supposedly showed that the former “Pirates of the Caribbean” actor have beaten her up, the public now believed that she is lying after a new recording emerged, and it seems to prove that Depp was really a victim of domestic violence and not her as she claimed.
According to the Daily Mail, in the audio that it exclusively obtained, Amber scoffed at Johnny for saying that he is a domestic violence victim. The audio recording contains the conversation of the ex-couple and at one point, she totally mocked her former husband.
“Tell the world Johnny, tell them... I Johnny Depp, a man, I'm a victim too of domestic violence... and see how many people believe or side with you,” the “Aquaman” actress could be heard as saying then suggested that no one would believe him. “You're bigger and you're stronger and I was a 115 lb. woman. You're going to get up on the stand, Johnny, and say, ‘she started it,’ Really?”
The audio recording is not yet verified but Johnny Depp’s side insists this is authentic and has the actual conversation of the two. The actress also admitted at some point that she hit her husband and this made people think that the actor has been telling the truth all along.
“I’m sorry that I didn’t hit you across the face in a proper slap, but I was hitting you, it was not punching you,” Amber said in the tape. “Babe, you’re not punched, I don’t know what the motion of my actual hand was, but you’re fine, I did not hurt you, I did not punch you, I was hitting you.”
In any case, after the explosive audio has been exposed, Johhny Depp gained the support of fans. They trended the hashtag #JusticeForJohnnyDepp to show they are behind him against Amber Heard and domestic violence.
Actor Dash Kennedy Williams was one of those who voiced his support to the veteran actor. “We all heard the rumors and saw his finger and the pictures from last year and didn’t want to jump to conclusions when all the evidence was to the contrary,” he tweeted after the recording was released. “But now we have audio to prove what was happening #JusticeForJohnnyDepp”
Amber Heard is also called a liar and a sociopath on social media. People also blamed as Johnny Depp lost lots of projects especially his signature “Pirates of the Caribbean” role. Meanwhile, the actress’ lawyer Roberta Kaplan pointed out that even if her client has been violent toward her ex-husband, it does not mean that she was not a victim of domestic violence too.
