Breaking news from the Fairfax Virginia courtroom today as supermodel and Johnny Depp's ex-girlfriend Kate Moss testified that the actor never pushed her down the stairs, as was alleged by Amber Heard in court earlier this month.
As fans know, the Aquaman star's ex-husband is suing for $50 million for defamation in connection with Amber's 2018 Washington Post essay. In retaliation, Ms. Heard is counter-suing the Pirates of the Caribbean star for $100 million.
The supermodel joined the Fairfax, Virginia, courtroom briefly via Skype. This development was reported shortly after Amber Heard brought up Johnny's ex during her testimony.
Amber alleged that her sister was near a staircase "in the line of fire … trying to get Johnny to stop," which reminded Amber of the rumored incident with Kate.
"I don't hesitate, I don't wait — I just, in my head, instantly think of Kate Moss and stairs.
"And I swung at him," she continued of the alleged March 2015 incident between herself, her sister Whitney and Johnny.
As fans will recall, Kate and Johnny dated from 1994 to 1997. Their relationship featured a few rocky moments, including reports of a blowout fight in September 1994 which ended with Johnny's arrest.
Police reported they found the actor "in a state of possible intoxication" while the supermodel was unharmed.
Johnny paid the hotel close to $10,000 — a bill that included more than $2,000 for the damages.
Speaking with Vanity Fair back in 2012, the model revealed she cried for "years" after the two broke up.
"I believed what he said. Like if I said, 'What do I do?', he'd tell me. And that's what I missed when I left. I really lost that gauge of somebody I could trust."
About that night while the pair were on holiday in Jamaica, Kate recalled: "We were leaving the room and Johnny left the room before I did. There had been a rainstorm and as I left the room I slid down the stairs."
As reported by Daily Mail, the actor came running back to help her. "[He] carried me to my room and got me medical attention," Kate testified.
"He never pushed me, kicked me or threw me down any stairs," she said.
The model was then asked if she has ever testified in any case before, to which she replied "No."
