Depp’s appearance in the United Kingdom has surprised many, as he is awaiting sentencing in his multimillion-dollar defamation suit with his ex-wife, Amber Heard.

The Pirates of the Caribbean actor is suing his ex-partner over a 2018 article she wrote in the Washington Post entitled: “I spoke out against sexual violence – and faced the wrath of our culture.” That needs to change. “

The article does not mention Depp by name, but his lawyers claim that this falsely suggests that he physically and sexually abused those heard while they were together.

On Friday, both sides made their closing statements, urging jurors to consider other victims of domestic violence. The jury is discussing the case, which began on April 11 and involved six weeks of evidence.
