Johnny Depp cracks a laugh as his doorman vapes and drives off during animated testimony from car
Johnny Depp enjoyed a moment of light relief during his trial against ex-wife Amber Heard, thanks to very animated testimony from his former doorman that even left the judge shocked. The highly-publicised defamation trial continued in Fairfax, Virginia on Wednesday, with Depp, 58, and Heard, 36, counter-suing each other over a 2018 article published in The Washington Post.In the op-ed, Heard described her experience with domestic abuse and, while he wasn’t named in the piece, Depp’s lawyers argue it suggests she was physically and sexually abused by him. During the latest court hearing, Alejandro Romero, who was a doorman at Depp’s former apartment building in Los Angeles, appeared in pre-taped deposition. However, many in the courtroom seemed amused during the testimony, which was filmed as Romero sat inside his car in January 2021. According to Romero, Heard asked him to investigate whether there had been an intruder due to scratches on their front door. However, the doorman said it was caused by their dog, much to Depp’s amusement as he was seen laughing in the courtroom as Romero’s testimony played. He said: ‘What? Four inches above the [floor]? The dog was scratching.
