Amber Heard Claims Johnny Depp Hit Her for 1st Time Over His ‘Wino’ Tattoo

Amber Heard spoke out for the first time on Wednesday, May 4, amid her ongoing defamation case involving her ex-husband, Johnny Depp

The Aquaman actress, 36, shared details about her marriage to Depp, 58 — which lasted from 2015 to 2017 — with the Virginia court on Wednesday, alleging that the Pirates of the Caribbean star had a history of violence during their relationship, Qazet.az reports.

Heard claimed that the first time Depp hit her was while the duo were drinking near a “jar of cocaine” and the Texas native asked the Lone Ranger star what the tattoo on his arm said. The Magic Mike XXL actress recalled laughing when Depp responded, “Wino Forever,” which allegedly got a rise out of the actor.

“He slapped me across the face and I laughed,” Heard said during her testimony. “I laughed because I didn’t know what else to do. I thought this must be a joke because I didn’t know what was going on. I just stared at him thinking that he was going to start laughing too.”

The Charlie and the Chocolate Factorystar, however, allegedly didn’t crack a smile, instead yelling at Heard, “You think it’s so funny? You think it’s funny, bitch? You think you’re a funny bitch?”

The Drive Angry actress, who met Depp while filming 2011’s The Rum Diary, recalled her ex-husband allegedly sobbing after he realized what he’d done and then apologizing over and over.

“As a woman, I had never been hit like that,” Heard told the jury on Wednesday, noting that the alleged incident is something she “will never forget.”
