Amber Heard stepped out with her new girlfriend Bianca Butti days after explosive audio resurfaced of her admitting to hitting ex-husband Johnny Depp.
The Aquaman actress kept her head down as she held her girlfriend’s hand at the WME Pre-Oscar event in Los Angeles on Friday.
She channelled her inner 70’s Stevie Nicks with a black satin dress and wavy hair for the event.
The 33-year-old made sure to keep her head down as she weaved past photographers.
Her appearance comes after audio recordings emerged of Amber admitting to hitting Johnny when they fight.
The pair were married from 2015 until 2017 and have been in a legal battle ever since, after Amber accused the Pirates of the Caribbean actor of physically abusing her.
In a 30-minute recording, the couple can allegedly be heard battling out their claims.
Heard, 33, says: ‘Tell the world, Johnny, tell them… I Johnny Depp, a man, I’m a victim too of domestic violence… and see how many people believe or side with you.
‘You’re bigger and you’re stronger… I was a 115lb woman… You’re going to get up on the stand, Johnny, and say, “She started it?” Really? I have never been able to overpower you.’
Depp responds: ‘You are f***ing killing me. Your f***ing people are trying to kill me.’
The actor once accused Amber of stubbing out a cigarette on his face and severing his finger with a glass bottle.
The 56-year-old made the allegations about his ex-wife, 33, as part of a libel case, claiming that Amber became violent during their March 2015 fight in Australia.
Amber went ‘into a rage’ after a conversation with Johnny’s lawyers about his ‘intention to enter into a post-nuptial agreement’, according to court documents obtained by The Blast.
He claimed he tried to ‘avoid’ Amber by going to the downstairs bar in the house.
She followed him, screaming at him ‘abusively’ while Johnny ‘poured himself a vodka and drank it’, according to court filings.
Amber allegedly threw a bottle at him and missed, before throwing a second bottle which smashed on a marble bar top, hit his hand and cut his finger.
‘Ms Heard then put a cigarette out on [Johnny’s] right cheek,’ the documents claimed.
