Dr David Kipper's pre-recorded deposition statement was played in court on April 18 as the trial continues in Fairfax, Virginia and he opened up about treating Depp after the actor claimed he was hurt as Heard threw a vodka bottle at him, according to reports by The Independent. Dr Kipper mentioned he found Depp bleeding profusely, and the actor claimed that it was after Amber threw a vodka bottle at him.

Depp however denied the allegations and mentioned he had a 'nervous breakdown' after Heard threw 'the second vodka bottle' at him. According to The Independent report, he said, "After the incident where Ms Heard threw the vodka bottle, the second vodka bottle at me, which severed the top of my finger and crushed the bones, that’s when I began what I feel was probably some species of a breakdown, a nervous breakdown or something."

Earlier today (April 18), Eve Barlow, who is a close friend of Amber Heard was asked to leave the courtroom, according to Page Six. She was seen texting and live-tweeting from the front row of the court and the judge mentioned her actions were 'against the court order'. As per the publication, Judge Azcarate said, "She was tweeting live from my courtroom... and I know the deputies took her out because she was texting. That's against the court order. Ms. Barlow is not coming back into the courtroom during this trial."
