The iconic British supermodel, who previously dated Depp, will provide evidence in the ongoing case via videolink.
Kate Moss, the renowned British supermodel who had a relationship with Johnny Depp in the 1990s, is scheduled to give testimony in Depp’s defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife, Amber Heard. Moss will appear via videolink later this week to offer her evidence in the high-profile case.
Depp is suing Heard for an article she wrote in 2018 for The Washington Post, which his legal team argues falsely suggests he abused her both physically and sexually during their relationship. Depp has consistently denied all accusations.
A source close to Depp confirmed to the PA news agency that Moss will testify on Wednesday, marking a key moment in the trial. This comes in the final days of the trial, which is being held in Fairfax County, Virginia, with closing arguments anticipated for Friday.
Both Depp and Heard have already taken the stand, with Heard completing her testimony on Wednesday. Depp’s legal team appeared to celebrate when Heard mentioned Moss during her testimony. She referred to a rumour she had heard about Depp allegedly pushing Moss down a flight of stairs, which prompted an audible reaction from Depp’s legal team.
Throughout the trial, jurors have heard numerous accusations from both parties, with several witnesses testifying to alleged physical and sexual abuse. Among them were Heard’s sister, Whitney, her friend Raquel Pennington, and another of Depp’s former partners, actress Ellen Barkin. In a video deposition shown last week, Barkin described Depp as being controlling during their brief relationship.
Notable names such as Tesla CEO Elon Musk, actors Paul Bettany, and James Franco were initially listed as potential witnesses, but none have been called to testify.
