Amber Heard denies fabricating injuries while Johnny Depp's lawyer accuses her of weaving a 'web of lies'

On Tuesday, Amber Heard denied fabricating injuries to show that her then-husband Johnny Depp had been violent towards her as she took to the witness box for her second day of evidence in Depp’s libel case against a British tabloid over allegations of domestic violence.

At Britain’s High Court in London, Depp’s lawyer, Eleanor Laws, sought to show via a series of video clips from an elevator at the couple’s Los Angeles apartment building that Heard fabricated any injury as a result of an incident on May 21, 2016 that ended up with police arriving on scene. Laws also wondered why others in the building did not notice injuries in the days after.

The actress has alleged that Depp, 57, threw a phone at her “like he was a baseball pitcher” that evening, hitting her on the right cheek and eye. Heard, 34, denied the allegation she was making things up and said she wears makeup when leaving home that could have camouflaged any injury. “Of course I had an injury,” she said.

Heard also denied that she had had an “illicit relationship” with anyone during her time with Depp, specifically with either Tesla CEO Elon Musk or actor James Franco. “Not that that matters much,” Heard said.

Eleanor, wondered why Heard had not mentioned the Moss allegation previously.  "I've not had the liberty of time or space or energy even to list every thought that crossed my mind," Heard said.

However, the Hollywood star strongly denies abusing Heard, and claimed in court that she had been violent to him. He was present to hear Heard's testimony. His lawyer sought to show inconsistencies in Heard's allegations, accusing her of weaving a "web of lies" and "making this up as you go along."
