Amber Heard said in court yesterday that Johnny Depp cheated on her with another woman just after they had tied the knot.

On Thursday, the Aquaman actor, 36, continued testifying in the $50 million defamation trial that her ex-husband, Depp, brought against her because she described herself as a victim of domestic abuse in a December 2018 op-ed for The Washington Post.

Heard did not name her 58-year-old former partner in the piece, but his legal team claims his career took a massive hit nonetheless.

During her second day on the witness stand at Fairfax, Virginia, Heard told the court that Depp had an "on-and-off" relationship with a woman, who he often messaged.

Per The Independent, she said: “I found his iPad open, he had been texting someone with it open, he had passed out, and I saw he was texting a woman he had a relationship with on and off at the beginning of our relationship so I recognized the name but the date was right after the wedding.

“I saw he had gone to her house right after we got married, like upon touching down in Los Angeles, I think it was the next day he went to this woman’s house, who he [had] a sexual relationship with.”

Elsewhere in her explosive testimony, Heard accused Depp of assaulting her on a number of occasions, including once with a liquor bottle.

She said of the alleged incident: “I’ve never been so scared in my entire life.” Heard went on to say that Depp was on top of her and that she tried telling him he was “really hurting me”.

“I couldn’t breathe, I couldn’t get through to him, I couldn’t get up... I don’t know what happened next,” Heard said, before telling the jury that he then proceeded to sexually assault her with a liquor bottle.

“I could feel this pressure on my pubic bone,” she continued, saying that it “looked like” Depp was “punching” her, adding that there were “broken bottles, broken glass” all over the room.

Heard said she avoided moving “because I didn’t know if it was broken, I didn’t know if the bottle that he had inside me was broken”.
