Amber Heard took the stand on Wednesday to testify in the ongoing trial for Johnny Depp’s 50 million dollar defamation case. The stakes are high for both parties. Forget the 50 million dollars claimed by Depp for defamation, the reputation and future careers of the stars are at stake.
This is the reason, both Amber Heard and Johnny Depp are leaving no stone unturned to put up a strong case in the trial. After an extensive testimony by Johnny Depp, Heard is now telling her side of the story. She had a lot to say, (more on that below). However, it seems, that a large section of Twitter is not buying her story. What do you think of the whole fiasco? Let us know your opinion in the comments section below.
Amber Heard Testifies in the On-Going Trial
Heard had her story to tell. She began by recounting how the pair fell in love. She said, “when I was around Johnny, I felt like the most beautiful person in the world. He made me feel like a million dollars,” “It just felt very intense.”. Next, she recalled the time Depp allegedly hit her for the first time. “I will never forget it. It changed my life,” Heard said. After narrating the alleged incident, she told the court that the couple had then reconciled. She said, “I believed there was a line he’d never cross again and that was it.”
However, things didn’t change, according to Heard. The violence continued and she recounted an incident where Depp did a “cavity search” on her against her will. After this testimony, a forensic psychologist testified for the defense. Amber Heard would continue her testimony on Thursday.

Fans On Twitter aren’t Buying Heard’s Story
Despite Heard’s compelling story and serious allegations of abuse and violence being leveled by her against Johnny Depp, a large section of Twitter users were skeptical. They took to the social media website to air their views. We have reproduced a few such tweets below.

Oh my god. I haven’t even seen any of Johnny Depp’s testimony but watching Amber Heard and there is something seriously wrong here. If you’ve ever heard a woman talking about sexual abuse….it looks nothing like this. It’s like a really badly prepped monologue.

I'm shocked ppl are sympathising with Amber Heard after the WORST act ever! Mocking dv/sv victims while she 'dried' into the faces of the jury & the world.
Even if you never looked into the case:
WHERE ARE YOUR BULLSHIT DETECTORS? It's truly disturbing. #AmberHeardlsALiar— Tongo Bozzie????????°•.•* (@Noneofthemknew1) May 5, 2022

Johnny Depp’s 50 Million Dollar Defamation Suit
Depp is suing Heard for defamation in Fairfax County, Virginia, US. The Trial of this civil suit began in April 2022. This lawsuit stems from an op-ed written by his ex-wife in The Washington Post about abusive relationships. While the article did not expressly mention him by name, Depp argued that it greatly damaged his career.
