On social media, a video of American actress Amber Heard recoiling in the courtroom after catching eyes with her ex-husband, the famous actor Johnny Depp, went viral.
According to court papers, the incident occurred after she ended her court hearing in which she smacked him.
People Question Amber Heard's Domestic Violence Claim
Amber Heard is seen descending from the witness stand in front of the jury in the footage, as Johnny Depp walks over to her spot with his lawyer. When Amber saw him, she withdrew immediately and expressed terror of Deep's attack on her, prompting the guards to interfere to stop them.
Johnny Depp, on the other hand, seemed taken aback by her actions, raising his shoulders in astonishment and walking away from her to see his lawyer. Heard's reaction sparked debate on social media, with some people claiming that she was greatly exaggerating her anxiety, while others acknowledged that Amber deserves an Oscar for her performance, and others expressing their amazement in the incident.
Others described a moment from a prior trial session in which Heard walked boldly in front of her ex-husband, showing no symptoms of fear. The case of Depp and Heard has garnered international attention, with Heard accusing her ex-husband of brutally assaulting her several times and of being jealous of his fellow actors, and demanding $100 million in damages, while Depp denies all of these allegations, accusing his ex-wife of distorting his reputation, and demanding $50 million in damages, according to Gulf Today.
Amber Heard Allegedly Fakes Her Tears During Testimony
Johnny Depp appeared in the 1990 classic "Cry-Baby," but his ardent fans believe his ex-wife Amber Heard was the one who put on an overdone emotional show.
Following her evidence in their blockbuster defamation trial this week, Depp's supporters have been slamming Heard on social media, accusing her of being a lousy actress and feigning tears. Heard, 36, spent two days recounting Depp's alleged assault, alleging that the actor struck her across the face and searched her vaginal canal, assuming she had buried his cocaine there.
When asked about her tumultuous marriage, the Aquaman star was frequently upset. Many viewers of the broadcast trial were convinced of her credibility, and the hashtag #IStandWithAmberHeard began trending on Twitter on Thursday afternoon, as per the New York Post.
Experts Doubt Amber Heard's Behavior During Trial
Depp has paraded his witnesses around the Virginia courtroom for the first three weeks, all of whom have labeled him a gentleman and Heard a liar. When Heard entered the stand on Wednesday, everything changed.
According to trial consultant Jill Huntley Taylor, her evidence has increased the stakes of the case. Depp's prior evidence about the times Heard hit or verbally assaulted him was detailed, and his denials about his alleged misbehavior were lengthy.
Heard, on the other hand, claimed that Depp often beat her and went on days-long drug-fueled binges, detailing the injuries she had as a result of the attacks. Jurors may not find her believable if her attorneys are unable to substantiate any of this in the coming weeks.
According to Brett Ward, co-chair of Blank Rome's divorce and family law practice, Heard comes across as more of a performance in a case involving two actors, and this might undermine her credibility with the jury, Insider reported.
Ramey Law PC, a civil litigation practice situated in Los Angeles, is co-founded by Christa Ramey. She claimed that the degree of information Heard recalled from these alleged attacks was unusual for trauma patients. According to her, victims' experiences are generally fragmented.
Depp was excited during Heard's testimony, whilst Heard sat stone-faced for Depp's. The courtroom cameras show him sketching, laughing at some of Heard's recollections, and nibbling from a mound of gummy bears on the table in front of him.
