Johnny Depp Shuts Down Claim That He ‘Slapped’ Amber Heard For Making Fun Of His Tattoo: ‘I Didn’t Hit Her’

hollywoodlife.com:

Johnny Depp vehemently denied during the second day of his trial in London that he “slapped” ex-wife Amber Heard, 34, when she was allegedly mocking his tattoo.

A lawyer for The Sun, the British paper Depp is suing for libel, told the court that the Pirates of the Caribbean star, 57, allegedly assaulted his then-girlfriend in 2013 after she joked about him having “wino forever” ink while falling off the wagon. Sasha Wass, The Sun‘s lawyer, claimed that “Ms.

Heard laughed at that tattoo. You were in fact acting like a wino and an alcoholic and felt very sensitive.” Depp said he did not recall Heard joking about his tattoo, and did not slap her.
