Johnny Depp says he was demeaned, berated by Amber Heard

Actor Johnny Depp returned to the stand Wednesday for testimony in his libel lawsuit against ex-wife Amber Heard, a day after he denied her allegations of domestic abuse.
Depp took the stand in Fairfax County Circuit Court after nearly three hours of testimony on Tuesday.
Most of his Day 1 testimony focused on his descriptions of a difficult childhood, his rise to fame as an actor after an aborted music career and his early relationship with Heard after meeting her on the 2011 film "The Rum Diary." The two married in 2015 and she filed for divorce a year later.
Taking the stand for a second day, Depp said things began to change in his marriage when he felt that he "was suddenly just wrong about everything" in Heard's eyes.
Depp said that Heard made little digs at him, demeaned and berated him. The insults escalated into full-fledged circular arguments from which there was "no way in or out," Depp said.
