Johnny Depp & Amber Heard

Johnny Depp lost his role in PoC and almost lost his role in Fantastic beasts because of the allegations against him but the latest news stories are showing that she was the abuser and there's a hell of a lot of proof of that. We say we believe you and I remember it being all over mumsnet at the time that he should not get any acting jobs in the wake of the allegations and I supported that and am now feeling awful that he was the victim in all of this.

What drives someone to do this? To make all these false allegations and ruin someone's life while systematically abusing them? Will she face the same consequences he did?

Just interested in others thoughts about this.

Depp's lawyer is claiming that Heard admitted under oath that she'd been violent towards him. So I suppose it will come out in the wash if true. And what about the photo of Depp's finger with the severed tip? He alleges he acquired the injury after she threw a glass at him.

I can believe Depp was violent to her. I can also believe that she was violent to him. Pretty common occurrence in volatile relationships like theirs was.

But she’s been photographed and filmed numerous times with bruises and other injuries, why focus on this one bruise?

Because this is the one that she focused on?

I have no doubt that she was as bad in the relationship as he was.

It was not a false allegation, they were both abusers, and I understand he got the sack from POC for turning up drunk all the time. Which may be why his marriage to a woman 20 years younger than him was a shambles. Nothing is ever simple in relationships, so maybe back off from the hero worship of a man you have no idea about.
