Sharing her story. Kate Moss opened up about her romance with Johnny Depp during the actor’s defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard.
During a live video appearance, the model, 48, addressed a previous testimony from Heard, 36, about rumors that Depp, 58, pushed her down the stairs when they dated in the ’90s. “We were leaving the room and Johnny left the room before I did. There had been a rainstorm. As I left the room, I slid down the stairs and I hurt my back,” Moss explained on Wednesday, May 25, referring to a past trip to a resort in Jamaica.
The U.K. native continued: “I screamed because I didn’t know what happened to me and I was in pain. He came running back to help me and carried me to my room and got me medical attention. He never pushed me, kicked me or threw me down any stairs.”
Heard’s legal team did not cross-examine Moss during her virtual appearance.
The supermodel and the Oscar nominee dated from 1994 to 1997 after meeting in New York City. Though their relationship was short-lived, it made tons of headlines at the time — and seemingly had a major effect on both of them.
In a 2012 interview with Vanity Fair, Moss revealed that she went through “years and years of crying” after their split. “There’s nobody that’s ever really been able to take care of me,” she said at the time. “Johnny did for a bit. I believed what he said. Like, if I said, ‘What do I do?,’ he’d tell me.”
