Johnny Depp's $50 million defamation case against ex-wife Amber Heard continues, sources have claimed that both Elon Musk and James Franco - originally named by Amber's legal team as potential witnesses - will not be appearing at court.

Meanwhile, sensational texts exchanged between Amber and talent agent Christian Carino - Lady Gaga's ex-fiancé - suggested that she was never in love with Elon and should consider "not dating famous men".Followers of the case had been expecting the actors to testify via video link.Yet, Virginia law rules that non-residents of the state cannot be compelled to participate in a court case against their will - and sources have apparently disclosed to The Independent that neither will appear.However, if any deposition had previously been given by either party it could still be used as evidence.Fans were eagerly awaiting Franco's testimony after Johnny told the court that he was convinced that Amber had been having an affair with him.Meanwhile, the news of Elon's absence comes after Christian Carino, an agent at the Creative Artists Agency (CAA), told the court that Amber had never been in love with him.The talent agent, who has previously represented both Amber and Johnny, sent a text to the former stating: "You told me a thousand times you were just filling space [with Elon]."The messages questioned why she was worried about her break-up with the SpaceX founder, adding: "You weren’t in love with him."In other texts and emails, after Amber confided in him about her love life, Mr Carino discouraged her from making her relationships so public."If you don’t like your personal life being in the press, don’t date famous men," he wrote to her."You could stop that if you stop dating uber-famous.
