“Although it was true that I was a victim of Harvey Weinstein, the rest was a lie,” Kendall said as reported in The Hollywood Reporter. “I was not ‘going public’ on behalf of #MeToo or myself, to criticize J.K. Rowling’s decision to cast Mr. Depp, nor did I accuse Mr. Depp of hurting Amber Heard, about which I have no first-hand knowledge.”
Katherine Kendall also added that she heard Johnny Depp was abusive to Amber Heard several times. The three week Libel trial has seen 9 days by now. With several people in the witness box and a lot has been said.
Meanwhile, Amber Heard will be testifying on coming Monday and that is said to be the big day in this ongoing trial.
