KEY POINTS

  • Amber Heard assaulted Johnny Depp while they were in the Bahamas with his kids
  • Lily-Rose defended her father Johnny Depp from Amber Heard's allegations
  • Johnny Depp's exes did not experience any abuse and violence when they were with him

Amber Heard reportedly assaulted Johnny Depp while his children were with them.

Heard and Depp’s relationship didn’t end well. The exes were embroiled in a legal battle with the “Aquaman” actress alleging that the “Pirates of the Caribbean” actor was being violent and abusive. However, earlier this year, an audio recording of Heard confessing that she hit Depp and started their fights leaked.

Depp’s estate manager Tara Roberts confirmed that she witnessed Heard assaulting Depp. In fact, it happened when his kids were with them.

Roberts who managed Depp’s islands in the Bahamas said in her declaration that Heard body-shamed her then-husband. She was reportedly yelling at him that he was “washed ups” and “fat.” They were standing in the parking lot of their house on the island when she attacked Depp.

“I saw Amber lunge at Johnny, clawing, tugging and aggressively pulling him. He continued to stand there yelling at her to stop and leave him alone. When he stepped back to leave, her onslaught would start again. During this entire incident, I never saw Johnny hit Amber, or push her back, nor did he physically react to the attacks,” Roberts said.

The incident left Depp with a red, swelling ash on the bridge of his nose. Roberts said that it was due to Heard throwing a “quart-sized can of lacquer thinner” at Depp’s face. She added that the incident happened when Depp’s children, Lily-Rose Depp and John “Jack” Christopher Depp III, were on the same island.

“Also present on the island during this late 2015 visit was Johnny's son, daughter, and his daughter's friend. Johnny children did witness the aftermath of the night before as I got then that morning, explained to them what had happened, and took them to their father,” she added.

However, it was unclear from Roberts’ declaration if Depp’s kids witnessed the assault. Following Depp and Heard’s split and the latter’s allegations that the former was abusive, Lily-Rose defended her father.

“My dad is the sweetest most loving person I know,” she wrote on Instagram (via Us Weekly ) but the post has already been deleted. “He’s been nothing but a wonderful father to my little brother and I, and everyone who knows him would say the same.”

Depp’s exes also said the same thing. Winona Ryder, Vanessa Pradis and Lori Anne Allison didn’t experience any abuse when they were with Depp. Instead, they found him sensitive, loving, caring and protective.
