Johnny Depp praised Amber Heard's 'strength,' called himself 'old junkie'
Depp texted an apologetic declaration of gratitude to Heard’s late mom, Paige Parsons Heard, on Aug. 19, 2014, as he was heading into detox for addiction to prescription painkillers.
“My dearest Paige, how unbelievably kind and pure your message was,” Depp wrote. “I am beyond thankful to have you in my life. There’s no luckier man on this earth to have the strength that Amber gives me and the full support of each of you individually that I’ve gotten helps immeasurably.”The 2014 text was brought up in court on Monday by Heard’s attorney, Ben Rottenborn. Depp is pictured during cross-examination proceedings.“I don’t need to explain the horrors to you,” he stated.
“Never a second has gone by that she didn’t look out for me or have her eyes on me to make sure that I was okay. Words are truly feeble in attempting to explain her heroism in a text. Suffice to say that I have never met, or loved, a woman or a thing, more,” Depp continued. “She has the strength of a thousand men and that is due to no one or nothing but you, sweetheart. Thank you. I love you. Your son-outlaw,” he concluded.
The text was sent six months before Depp and Heard tied the knot, in February 2015. They split in 2017.
