Johnny Depp reportedly referred to Amber Heard as "Amber Turd" during their relationship, according to court documents and media reports. This is a derogatory and disrespectful nickname and demonstrates the kind of toxic behavior that can be present in abusive relationships.

“It was one of the most absurd, unexpected statements that I have ever witnessed in my life, so yes, initially I did laugh because it was so strange,” Depp said during cross-examination at his explosive libel trial, the Daily Mail reported.

Amber Heard is an American actress and model who has been in the headlines for her ongoing legal battle with her ex-husband, actor Johnny Depp. In 2020, Johnny Depp filed a defamation lawsuit against Amber Heard for an op-ed she wrote in the Washington Post in which she discussed her experience as a victim of domestic abuse. Johnny Depp claimed that the article defamed him and damaged his career. The trial, which took place in the UK, was highly publicized and featured a number of high-profile witnesses, including Johnny Depp, Amber Heard, and other celebrities.

The trial was closely watched by the media and the public, as it shed light on the issue of domestic violence and the challenges victims face when coming forward. The trial also raised questions about the reliability of witness testimony and the role of the media in shaping public opinion. Ultimately, the court ruled in favor of the defendants, with the judge stating that the defendants had proved the majority of the allegations made in the article. The trial was a high-profile example of the legal system's ability to address complex issues and provide justice for victims of abuse.

Depp had been sent photographs of the feces in their bed, the day after he and Heard celebrated her 30th birthday, in 2016. The cleaner had discovered the offending pile.

“Not sure I’ve laughed that hard for years. At least the photos are hilarious,” Depp allegedly wrote in a text message.

Sasha Wass — the lawyer for the newspaper Depp is suing — said the actor had made jokes after the incident, calling his wife “Amber Turd” and “Amber in the Dumps.”
