Amber Heard to begin evidence in Johnny Depp ‘wife beater’ libel trial

breakingnews.ie:

Amber Heard is to begin three days of evidence at the High Court as part of Johnny Depp’s libel case against The Sun over allegations of domestic violence during the pair’s tempestuous relationship.

The Aquaman actress, 34, has been present throughout the trial at the Royal Courts of Justice in London, watching from the public gallery as her ex-husband, 57, gave evidence over five days.

On Monday, it will be Ms Heard’s turn to face questioning over 14 allegations of domestic violence – all denied by Mr Depp – which the tabloid’s publisher News Group Newspapers (NGN) relies on in its defence of an April 2018 article that called the Hollywood star a “wife beater”.
