The otherwise dramatic Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard defamation case had a brief moment that made the Pirates of the Caribbean actor chuckle. Credits where it’s due, Amber Heard’s lawyer was the reason behind Depp’s reaction. Heard’s attorney was questioning her client when she briefly imitated Depp, leaving everyone amused.
She said, “I’m gonna start at the very beginning here. You were asked by Depp’s lawyer Ms Camille Vazquez about why Mr Depp won’t or can’t look you in the eye. She played a tape in which Mr Depp said, ‘You will not see my eyes again.’” When recalling the comment, Amber Heard’s lawyer lowered her voice to sound more like Depp.
Depp, who until then had his head lowered, busy writing notes, let out a laugh after the lawyer’s antics. Heard then went on to talk about the moment when he said those words and narrated what happened after the incident.
The lawyer’s move amused Depp’s fans. Many joked about how Heard’s attorney is a huge fan of Depp, while others commented on how good her mimicking skills were.
Check out some of the reactions below:
Amber Heard filed for divorce from Johnny Depp, citing irreconcilable differences. She obtained an emergency temporary restraining order. On August 16th, 2016, Depp and Heard settled their divorce. As part of the settlement, Heard withdrew her request for a domestic violence order of protection and demanded $7 million. She later was granted the full amount as a divorce settlement.
Heard then wrote an op-ed for The Washington, talking about being a victim of domestic violence. Depp filed the ongoing case for the very same opinion piece.
