As Johnny Depp’s defamation case against his ex-wife Amber Heard continues to unfold, movie fans are getting a clearer picture of the toxic nature of their relationship with each passing day.
In one recent clip from the trial, the 58-year-old Depp testified that Heard’s allegations against him have cost him to lose “everything.” Depp is suing Heard, 35-years-old, for $50 million for defamation. The trial is taking place at the Fairfax County Circuit Courthouse in Virginia.
“What have you lost as a result of Ms. Heard making these allegations against you?” Depp was asked.
“Nothing less than everything,” Depp said after a long pause. “Because when the allegations were made… telling people that I was a drunken, cocaine-fueled menace who beat women, suddenly in the 50s. It’s over. You’re done.”
“So, what did it do to me? What effect did it have on me? I’ll put it to you this way: no matter the outcome of this trial, the second the allegations were made against me… once that happened, I lost then. That is to say that I lost because that is not a thing that anyone is going to just put on your back for a short period of time. I will live with that for the rest of my life.”

In a recording played during the trial, the court was played a recording of Heard admitting to “hitting” Depp.
“I didn’t punch you… I was hitting you, it was not punching you. You didn’t get punched, you got hit… I did not f—ing deck you, I f—ing was hitting you,” the actress can be heard saying. “But you’re fine, I did not hurt you… you’re a f—ing baby. You are such a baby, grow the f–k up, Johnny.”
Depp will be returning to the stand on Thursday for further cross-examination.
