JOHNNY FIGHTS BACK: MY SIDE OF THE STORY

Explosive testimony accuses Amber Heard of punching him and slicing off his finger!

ACCUSED of being a booze-and-drug-fueled wife beater, Johnny Depp is finally speaking out, admitting that while he abused drugs he was never a violent “monster” with ex-wife Amber Heard and NEVER walloped the Aquaman beauty.

Noting the 34-year-old sexpot “said that she was in fear of her life from me, and I had been this horrible monster,” the Pirates of the Caribbean star testified in a British courtroom. “I’m not the monster she is making me out to be.”

The 57-year-old star is currently battling The Sun newspaper in a London libel court for printing he beat Amber during their marriage and attacked her more than once while stoned or drunk.

He’s also suing her and the Washington Post for an op-ed in which she implied — without naming him — he was abusive during their 18-month marriage that ended in 2018.
