In court, Amber Heard was confronted with footage from a surveillance camera. She can be seen in an elevator with her neighbor and colleague James Franco. The two look familiar. Just a day later, Heard filed for divorce.
On Tuesday, actress Amber Heard (36) had to answer questions from Johnny Depp’s (58) lawyer on the witness stand. According to several media reports, she took them with her in such a way that she stormed out of the courtroom after the end of the hearing.
Among the numerous images, audio recordings and videos that Heard was asked to comment on, there was one means of evidence that particularly caught the eye. Namely, elevator security camera footage from Heard and Depp’s Los Angeles apartment.
They show Heard, dressed only in a bathrobe and barefoot, familiar with another man. This is fellow actors and neighbors James Franco (44). According to Heard, Depp is said to have been incredibly jealous of him of all people.
The date on the surveillance camera images also caused a stir in court, as reported by “Bild”. Because the recordings are said to have been made around 11 p.m. on May 22, 2016. Exactly one day later, Heard filed for divorce. Depp himself is said not to have been home that evening.
Depp’s legal team wanted to know from the actress what Franco was doing with her at night. “He was my friend and literally lived next door. I had exhausted my network of supporters and was happy for any friendship I could get,” quoted “Bild” Heard’s response.
When asked that she and Franco looked very familiar in the elevator, Heard reportedly replied: “After he saw my face, he put his head on my shoulder. He also touched the side of my face, responding to what he saw.”
Background: The 36-year-old had previously stated that Depp threw a phone at her last night. This left her with a bruise on her cheek.
The defamation trial between Depp and Heard will continue on Wednesday (May 18). Then her former best friend and her sisters should testify.
