Johnny Depp and Amber Heard news LIVE: Aquaman star's sister Whitney Henriquez gives evidence at libel trial

Amber Heard’s sister Whitney Henriquez gave evidence in person at Johnny Depp's libel trial at the High Court in London.

Ms Heard, 34, has concluded her evidence in her ex-husband’s libel case against The Sun’s executive editor Dan Wootton and the paper’s publisher News Group Newspapers (NGN). The Aquaman star has made over 14 allegations of domestic violence, which NGN relies on in its defence of an April 2018 article which branded Mr Depp, 57, a “wife beater”.

Ms Henriquez said she lived with her sister in Los Angeles when Ms Heard first began a relationship with Johnny Depp and later moved to one of the actor’s apartments in the Eastern Columbia Building.

She told the court that she moved there in around 2014 and left after the couple married in February 2015, before moving back in January 2016. Previously, Amber Heard said she punched Johnny Depp in self-defence because she thought the actor was going to push her sister, Whitney Henriquez, down the stairs at their home in LA.
