In the first day of his defamation trial, Johnny Depp appeared to smirk as the lawyer of his ex-wife Amber Heard said that the actor was obsessed with Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
The high profile trial was in the wake of a defamation case filed by Depp against Amber’s article in The Washington Post in which she claimed that she was a victim of domestic violence.
During the hearing of the case, Heard’s lawyer, Elaine Bredehoft, told the 11-person jury that “Johnny Depp is obsessed with Elon Musk”.
For the unversed, Elon Musk along with Spider-Man actor James Franco, Paul Bettany and Ellin Barkin has been listed as possible witnesses by Amber Heard.
Furthermore, during the 2020 libel case between Heard and Depp, his lawyer claimed that she had an affair with Musk.
