Kate Moss denied Amber Heard: Johnny Depp never pushed me down the stairs

On Wednesday, supermodel Kate Moss, who had a relationship with Johnny Depp in the 1990s, testified on behalf of the Pirates of the Caribbean actor in the libel trial between him and Amber Heard.

Moss, 48, testified virtually for less than three minutes. In her statement, she said that she had a relationship with Depp between 1994 and 1998, and denied a rumor that Heard had mentioned in court.

The actor’s legal team called Moss as a rebuttal witness in response to testimony from Heard, who said on the stand May 17 that she thought about a rumor that Depp had pushed the supermodel when she and her sister Whitney Heard Henriquez had an altercation with him near some stairs.

Therefore, Kate Moss testified this Wednesday under oath that the rumor was not true. She clarified that at that time she traveled to Jamaica with Depp, her partner at the time, and there was a storm, so she fell down some stairs and injured her back.

“We were leaving the room and Johnny got out before me. There was a storm and when I left the room I slipped down the stairs and hurt my back,” Moss said. “I screamed because I didn’t know what had happened to me and I was in pain. He came running to help me, took me to my room and got me medical attention,” she explained.

The actor’s attorney asked Moss if Depp had ever pushed her down stairs during the course of her relationship, to which she replied, “No. He never pushed me or kicked me or threw me down the stairs.”

The supermodel was not questioned by Amber Heard’s lawyers.

Moss and Depp dated for three years. The actor met her at a trendy Manhattan bistro in 1994 and they struck up a relationship that was not without its ups and downs. The couple was seen on more than one occasion yelling at each other in public. Their turbulent romance, in which drugs and certain self-destructive habits were not lacking, ended in 1997.

When they separated, Moss spent time in a rehabilitation center. Long after her, she assured that the actor took great care of her when they were together and said that, among other things, he taught her to deal with her fame. “There is no one who could really take care of me and Johnny did. And that’s what I missed afterwards. I really lost someone I could trust. And that meant years and years of crying for me », she acknowledged in an interview with Vanity Fair in 2012.

Johnny Depp sued Amber Heard for defamation in Fairfax County Circuit Court after she published an op-ed in The Washington Post in 2018 in which she described herself as “a public figure representing domestic abuse.” ».

The actress countersued Depp alleging that the statements of the actor’s lawyer in which she described as “hoax” the accusations of abuse of her defame her and cost her work.

The trial, which takes place in Virginia, has been underway since April and the final arguments in the case are expected to be presented this Friday.
