The now very public legal dispute between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp has taken yet another turn with Heard now claiming that she feared for her life following an incident in which Johnny allegedly 'smothered' her with a pillow.
According to court reports, she went on the record saying "I feared for my life", referring to an alleged incident in December 2015 in which she claims that Depp had been heavily drinking.
In a bid to support Heard's claims, a friend of the young actress backed up her comments yesterday: "I got to her apartment to find her with a cut and bruised lip, a swollen eye and a chunk of hair missing from the top of her head. This incident really stuck with me because she confided in me that day that she feared for her life after an intoxicated Johnny tried to suffocate her with a pillow."
"I have personally witnessed the aftermath of Johnny Depp’s violent and abusive behaviour towards her on many occasions."
This information follows a recent claim made by Heard suggesting that Johnny had punched a wall in the midst of an argument, which would later result in him taking a month off from filming.
Neither Depp nor his legal representatives have responded to Heard's latest claims, having previously stated: "Johnny will not respond to false stories, gossip, misinformation and lies about his personal life."
