According to Heard, Depp allegedly hit her in the face with his iPhone last weekend (the image of Heard bruised was taken after the alleged al-tercation) and then he offered her money to stay quiet about it.

Overnight, Heard was granted a temporary restraining order f-rom the actor, alleging an immediate threat of harm, which requires Depp to stay 100 metres away f-rom her until the next court hearing in late-June.

According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Heard claimed that Depp was verbally and physically abusive during the relationship, with the actress attributing his problems to drugs and alcohol.

In the documents, Heard claims that during her birthday party last month, Depp showed up “inebriated and high”.

She said he later threw a champagne bottle at the wall and a wine glass at her.

She claimed that the actor grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her onto the bed. She also says he grabbed her by the hair and pushed her to the floor.

In the documents, Heard said that until last weekend, she hadn’t seen Depp for a month, and that they were talking about his mother’s death the day before.

According to TMZ, she said he “suddenly began obsessing” about something, got angry, grabbed the phone, “wound up his arm like a baseball pitcher and threw the cell phone at me striking my cheek and eye”.

A Hollywood source told the New York Post, “Johnny Depp has a substance abuse problem and this isn’t the first time this [domestic violence] has happened [to Amber].”

The alleged incident occurred one day after the death of Depp’s mother, Betty Sue Palmer.

On Thursday, Depp addressed the split in a statement to People: “Given the brevity of this marriage and the most recent and tragic loss of his mother, Johnny will not respond to any of the salacious false stories, gossip, misinformation and lies about his personal life. Hopefully the dissolution of this short marriage will be resolved quickly.”

He was also rumoured he was engaged to longtime 1990s love, model Kate Moss. The two had a notoriously volatile relationship.

In 1994, he was c-harged with criminal mischief after an incident at a New York hotel when he smashed up a hotel room after a fight with Moss.

The actor was handcuffed and taken away.

The c-harges against Depp were eventually d-ropped after he agreed to pay back the $14,000 in damages he caused to the hotel.
