Amber Heard Details Allegations Of Abuse By Johnny Depp In Newly Published Therapy Notes
Hollywood actress, Amber Heard is prepared to release therapy notes ‘dating back to 2011 from the very beginning of her relationship’ with Johnny Depp, which she says proves there was physical abuse in their marriage.
Heard handed over a binder of notes to NBC’s Dateline ahead of her tell-all interview with Savannah Guthrie, which is set to air on US television on Friday night.

The notes allegedly show that Heard told her therapist that Depp, 59, ‘hit her; threw her against a wall, and threatened to kill her’, but her lawyers were barred from submitting the documents as evidence after the judge dismissed them as ‘hearsay’.
Depp had emerged victorious in his recent defamation trial against Heard, with the jury awarding him $10million (£7million) in compensatory damages and a further $5million (£3.9million) in punitive damages, while Heard was also awarded $2million (£1.6million) in compensatory damages.
Heard has maintained that she told the truth on the stand, adding in the upcoming interview:
There’s a binder worth of years of notes dating back to 2011, from the very beginning of my relationship, that were taken by my doctor who I was reporting the abuse to…
Her notes represented years of real-time explanations of what was going on.
According to Guthrie, in January 2012, Heard told her therapist the Pirates of the Caribbean star had ‘hit her, threw her on the floor’ and a 2013 note stated he ‘threw her against a wall and threatened to kill her.’

In response to Heard’s interview with NBC, a spokesperson for Depp told Dateline that the actor simply wants to “move forward” after he won his case.
