In her statement, Amber Heard described the 2015 incident in which she punched Johnny Depp in the face. She allegedly did so because she was afraid he would throw her sister Whitney down the stairs.
“I immediately thought of Kate Moss and the stairs,” Amber explained sketchyly, why she had decided to intervene. By that she meant the alleged incident when Johnny was to knock down his former partner, the elite model Kate Moss. She had already made this claim in a court in London, where she said she had heard this information from two different people.
But as soon as she finished, Depp’s lawyer, Benjamin Chew, turned to his partners and began to celebrate with a clenched fist, while Johnny himself laughed contentedly.
Why? Amber made a big mistake at the time.
“Amber thinks Kate Moss doesn’t support Johnny in any way. But that’s damn far from the truth. ” told a New York Post source from Depp’s immediate area.
The British supermodel still seems to have an extremely great relationship with Depp. They are friends. What’s more, Johnny’s lawyers originally wanted to summon her to court as a witness who would talk about their relationship and how kind and caring Depp had always been to her. But they were not satisfied.
“Kate Moss is still Depp’s friend, but the court did not allow her to testify because she is not relevant to the ongoing trial. And that’s exactly the mistake Amber made. By mentioning her in her testimony, she opened the door for Depp’s team to have her (Moss) summoned as a prosecution witness. So she can say that nothing like this has ever happened, “ California lawyer Mitra Ahouraian told the NY Post.
“They will argue that they should be allowed to summon Kate Moss so she can disprove the rumors that Johnny Depp attacked her.” added Halim Dhanidina, another California law expert and former judge.
Johnny Depp is the star of the lawsuit.

A few Amber Heard words could really shuffle the cards. It is clear from Depp’s lawyer that he intends to continue working on the matter and bring Kate Moss to court.
In addition, if Judge Penney Azcarate allows it, Johnny Depp’s legal team will be able to get Amber to charge further defamation charges.
Amber Heard’s lawyers are likely to try to block Kate Moss’s summons by saying that their client did not intend to accuse the ex-husband of attacking the model, but that she was just trying to describe her state of mind and why she had hit him.
