Heard has accused Depp of assaulting her physically and sexually on numerous occasions both before and during their brief marriage. Depp filed the lawsuit after Heard referred to the allegations in a 2018 op-ed piece for The Washington Post.

Heard claims the first time she was assaulted was when Depp slapped her in 2013 after she made fun of a tattoo he had when he was dating actress Winona Ryder, which he changed to “Wino Forever” after they broke up.

The alleged assault, according to Depp, “didn’t happen.” “What makes you think I’d be offended if someone made fun of a tattoo on my body?” “I’ve never understood that allegation.”
Later, while filming the film “Black Mass,” he addressed an alleged assault on a private plane flight from Boston to Los Angeles in 2014. Depp allegedly became blackout drunk and assaulted her on the plane ride, according to Heard.
Depp testified that to avoid her badgering, he took two oxycodone pills an opiate to which he admits he was addicted at the time locked himself in the plane bathroom and fell asleep.
