Johnny Depp's security guard speaks out about fights with Amber Heard
Johnny Depp's personal bodyguard Sean Bett appeared as a witness in the defamation trial and showed pictures of the injuries he said Depp suffered during fights with his then-wife Amber Heard.
According to the bodyguard, he took the pictures "just in case she pressed charges." According to Bett's comments, the March 2015 photos show the actor with a "swollen cheekbone and eyelid." He also said Depp was injured in a scuffle with Heard in December 2015. Those photos showed scratches and bruises on the actor's face.
The witness claims that initially there was a normal relationship between the spouses, but then it deteriorated. The initiator of the quarrels was mostly Amber Heard. After one of them, when the actress threw a bottle at her husband, he allegedly told her: "This can't go on like this. You guys are either going to kill each other or end up in jail." He added that her eyes filled with tears afterward, and she remarked, "But I love him and I'm not going to lose him."
The trial continues in Virginia. The hearing is expected to last at least six weeks.
