(Picture: AP)Amber Heard said reports that she was arrested for assaulting a former girlfriend in 2009 were part of a “smear campaign” by Johnny Depp, as she concluded her evidence to their libel trial.
The actress denied allegations that she had assaulted former partner Tasya van Ree in a bust-up at an airport in Seattle, suggesting the story had been “planted by Johnny’s team” after their marriage broke down and she obtained a restraining order against the star.
