He's suing for $50 million. She is countersuing for $100 million. 😂

Now I don't know a terrible lot about her diagnoses or lack of them (or whether she agrees with the BPD or histrionic diagnoses), but that is one heck of a fucking superiority complex going on!

What the actual fuck is this woman on?

Ok @Midlifemusings, I see you have nothing to refute my evidenced points other than irrelevant waffle and hyperbole. Never let the facts get in the way of your opinion, eh?

I copied you the parts of the document that responded to your points. That comes direclty from the appeal response

You can call that irrelevant waffle and hyperbole if you want.

RoseslnTheHospital · 17/05/2022 21:30

It is irrelevant because the appeal found against Depp. What you have quoted doesn't change that. It is merely an explanation of the legal limits of an appeal. What on earth do you think that it's somehow proving or disproving in relation to the specific points that I made?

Planesmistakenforstars · 17/05/2022 21:39

I'd heard of her in relation to Crispin Glover, and the in All The Boys Love Mandy Lane because I'm a big horror fan.

It’s so horrible to witness. I know a few women that seem to be delighting in talking about how awful she is, they do seem gleeful. It’s horrible to watch. Why don’t women have other womens back? It’s so sad, it’s sickening.

Its one of the worst things I've seen on live tv.

Its America though. I was speaking to a law student there and he said people sue each all the time. In and out of court for quite small things. He's been to court several times himself and doesn't seem all that bothered about it.

Yes I remember her on Top Gear back when everyone was fascinated by her being a famous bi-sexual actress, I think she was dating women at the time.

LuckySantangelo35 · 17/05/2022 22:01

She was in one of the Magic Mills films

LuckySantangelo35 · 17/05/2022 22:01

Magic Mike sorry

I first heard of her when the dog smuggling thing happened.

I was gutted when the domestic abuse stuff first came out. I was a Johnny fan and I believed her. I was so sad that he could be abusive.

My job involves quite a bit of waiting around so I've been watching the trial.

Amber Heard is abusive. I can't say if Johnny is or isn't but she is definitely abusive. There are tapes and recordings where she is clearly emotionally abusing him. She admits to hitting him, she admits to preventing him leaving when he's trying to get away. She cones across as needy, jealous and controlling quite regularly.

She justifies this by saying she was trying to help him, trying to stop him doing drugs.

However, she's just taunting him, goading him and provoking him, doesn't seem concerned about him and he doesn't really mention drugs at all in the recordings.

I think some of those that aren't being supportive towards her are life long Johnny fans that won't hear a bad word said, then there are people like me, that listen to her and hear a lying, deluded narcissist.

Profanasaurusrex · 17/05/2022 22:23

I’d not heard of her before. I’d seen Aquaman but hadn’t taken any notice of what the actresses name was and didn’t recognise her from anywhere else.

I didn’t even know that Johnny Depp had got married…. I thought he was still with Vanessa Paradis!

first time I heard of her was the UK trial.

Wow Didn't know she was in Mandy Lane-I loved that film.

She is Mandy Lane!

Darbs76 · 18/05/2022 06:12

Yes but only because she was married to Johnny Dep. I know her because they smuggled their dogs into Australia and then recorded that cringe apology video.

sst1234 · 18/05/2022 07:37

Never heard of her until she married Johnny Depp. Yet she thinks she got the big roles afterwards because of her ahem.. talent. Sure she did! Eat you heart out Meryl Streep.

JetTail · 18/05/2022 13:03

It's very clear from the recordings that she has Borderline Personality Disorder in my opinion. One of the diagnostic criteria is desperate fear of abandonment. Another one is the dramatic and intense emotions. She demonstrates all of that in those recordings. He appears to run away to get away from her and far from abusing her, he just tries to give her space to calm the fuck down. I think that her shouting at him in front of the children might have been the nail in the coffin for him. She tries to prevent this in a variety of ways. Cajoling to start with, then pleading, then the abuse of him. She frequently tries to destroy his self confidence. It's all a trap to ensnare him really. Break you down and then be the rescuer. Can you tell I've been in a relationship with someone with diagnosed BPD? And HE was the abuser. Not me. But fuck me was he an angel outside.

As for women supporting women? One of the worst abusers I've known in my life was a woman.

And this bollocks that she's afraid he's going to use? NEVER ONCE MENTIONED! Until now, in court. To explain her incessant haranguing of him.

OP posts:
JetTail · 18/05/2022 13:06

IF she had been afraid that he was going to go and use, she would have thrown that at him in the argument. It's never mentioned.

I'm far too accustomed to her type of character. They are utter liars. Even when questioned about the detox and the counsel asks her whether the nurse saw any abuse by her she slipped up and said 'None that she would have seen'. She quickly then corrects herself and says 'None'.

That the poor cunt JD had to fucking beg for her to be taken away while he tried to detox is horrific. Detox is horrible and if there is an antagonist there, it must have been superbly difficult for him. That's why rehabs will not allow you contact with the outside world whatsoever. The stressors which make you use are not what you need when you're going through hell.

She does remind me very much of my ex dil , who has bpd. She's a prime example of why all women shouldn't be believed just because they are women. If she's caught out in a lie she'll lie some more to the point that court, caffcass and the police all had different stories she told

And they're believable! They will lie and lie and lie. Lying is just how they operate. I do not believe one word out of her mouth. Not one word. She's a manipulative shrew.

Yes, I’d heard of her. Johnny didn’t make Amber. 🙄

Depp reminds me of abusive men I’ve known. He’s toxic and a druggie and has spent much of his life high on one substance or another. His texts were disgusting. He manages to get people on his side despite this. It’s vile to watch him. I absolutely believe he abused her. I wouldn’t wish to be near her either, she’s toxic too.

You seem highly invested in this OP. Remember, you don’t know them, I presume. They’re both manipulative people, both have money to do some very dodgy shit. Nether give a fuck about you. 🤷🏻‍♀️

MintIceCream1 · 18/05/2022 14:07

You should be utterly, deeply ashamed of yourself OP. Your misogyny and lack of willingness to support women. You've really been manipulated by a man's testimony haven't you. So gullible. Anyone can see through Depp as the abusive, narcissistic, BPD master manipulator he is. Wake up.

FixitJesus · 18/05/2022 14:35

Your misogyny and lack of willingness to support women

So women should support women even if they're completely toxic? Yeah, i'll pass.

Depp is toxic, yet people are defending him.

Yes, I'm watching the trial. Not highly invested unless talking about it on here is invested?
