Those who have followed Johnny Depp and Amber Heard‘s messy split from the beginning must recall when she first filed a restraining order against him — it was the initial accusation of domestic violence, when she claimed he hit her with an iPhone.
But did she really get the emergency filing because she was afraid of him and what he might do to her? Or was it all part of a plan to get what she wanted from the divorce? The latter is clearly what Johnny’s team is looking to show with a release of documents this week.

On Wednesday, the jury was shown a letter Amber’s attorney sent to Johnny’s legal team back on May 24, 2016, just days after the divorce filing. It was a list of financial demands; Amber wanted:
for her and her friends to live rent-free in the three separate penthouse apartments Johnny owned in the Los Angeles area “exclusive use and possession” of Johnny’s Range Rover she had been driving — and for him to continue paying it off for Johnny to pay $125,000 in her legal bills from the divorceThese aren’t exactly shocking demands after a divorce. What’s jaw-dropping is what Amber threatened if she didn’t get all she wanted.
According to the letter, she essentially said if she got her financial demands, she wouldn’t publicly file for a domestic violence restraining order against him. To be clear, the letter does not say that the domestic violence claims are false or will be faked — it just says Amber would rather keep them private… if the price is right.
