The ongoing legal battle between Johnny Depp and his estranged wife Amber Heard has been a suspense-filled case action that has been a topic of discussion for many. British actor Paul Bettany has broken his silence for the first time about his experience having his text messages subpoenaed during the highly publicized libel lawsuit. He shared his thoughts on the conversations between himself and Johnny Depp concerning Amber Heard at depp’s trial.
Several text messages exchanged between Depp and Bettany were shared in court in 2020 by lawyers for News Group International, which Depp was suing after a column by Dan Wooten in the Sun referred to him as a wife-beater. The unpleasant and aggressive exchange between Depp and the pirates of the Caribbean was described by many as incriminating and in poor taste.
During the course of the suit, over 70,000 texts were accidentally made public by Depp’s former attorneys, including the Paul to Johnny and Johnny Depp conversation. This chain of messages made known to the public might have contributed to why Johnny lost the case against the UK’s tabloid The Sun in 2020.
Betany, who has starred alongside Depp in several notable films, has expressed his dissatisfaction with making his conversations with Depp known and frowns upon it. The case continues to be a suspense-filled and entertaining movie.
actor Johnny Depp, married to Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Connolly, has been accused of breaching his privacy in the public eye. Depp allegedly lied about an argument he had with Jennifer, which was recorded and leaked to the media. The incident led to reports of their split, and Depp denied signing a pact with the devil to give away his privacy. He also allegedly referred to his consumption of alcoholic drinks and potential narcotic substances, which prompted the courts to ask if Betany was one of his drug buddies. Depp’s loss and fallout have affected his film roles, including his role as Gelert in the Fantastic Beasts franchise. However, Depp’s former spouse, Amber, is still involved in a 50 million defamation lawsuit against Hurd. Hurd claims that Depp was referring to him as her abuser allegations, damaging his career and reputation. Depp is filing the lawsuit to clear his name and reputation, as well as bring clarity to women and men who have been harmed by abuse and lied to by misheard.
