In Court, Johnny Depp Addressed His Relationship with Ellen Barkin:
After only a year of marriage, Amber Heard filed for divorce from Johnny Depp in 2016. She quickly obtained a restraining order against Depp,
alleging that he had been physically violent to her (via CNN). According to Vanity Fair, Depp sued The Sun because the British tabloid dubbed him a
“wife abuser.”
Barkin alleged in her deposition that Depp threw a wine bottle at her while they were dating, citing hits like “The Big Easy,” “Sea of Love,” and
“Johnny Handsome” (via IMDb). In July 2020, Depp, who lost the lawsuit against The Sun, clarified his relationship to a British court. According to
the Daily Mail, Depp said the connection was informal and Barkin wanted it to be more serious, stating he felt her charges were motivated by a
grudge.
“Ms. Barkin initiated a sexual aspect that lasted for months on and off, mostly because she was working on the picture ‘Fear and Loathing in Las
Vegas,’ which I was working on at the time, and I assume her needs were… She wants a real connection with me, which I did not want “According to
Depp (via the Daily Mail). “I didn’t feel the same way about her as she did about me, and I believe she became quite furious after that, and I haven’t
spoken to her since. Ms. Barkin hasn’t talked to me either.”
