Depp: It's insane to say I'm an abuser

JOHNNY Depp denounced allegations of domestic abuse from Amber Heard as "ridiculous, humiliating, ludicrous... and all false" as he returned to the witness stand in his $50 million libel trial.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star was recalled to give further evidence as the trial draws to a close, insisting the "outlandish, outrageous" claims against him are all untrue.

Depp, 58, said descriptions of his drug use and violence had been exaggerated, and told the court in Virginia, US: "I have never in my life committed sexual battery, physical abuse." He also said evidence from Heard's side that he had not helped his ex-wife land her role in blockbuster movie Aquaman was "not exactly true".
