Johnny Depp waves to fans outside the defamation trial

Johnny Depp appeared on stage alongside Jeff Beck in the UK for the second night in a row, as he reset his mind of a defamation trial with ex-wife Amber Heard.

After the 58-year-old Pirates of the Caribbean star appeared with Jeff on Sunday at Sheffield City Hall, fans were hopeful that the actor would repeat the performance at the Royal Albert Hall in west London.

Johnny didn’t disappoint when he returned to the stage to perform a cover of John Lennon’s Isolation, which he released earlier in 2020 with Jeff – it’s the same song they played together. together on Sunday in Yorkshire.

Multiple clips of them playing together went viral on social media on Monday and this has fueled expectations of a repeat when Jeff plays in London.

Johnny’s appearance in the UK surprised many people as he was awaiting a verdict in a multi-million dollar libel lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard.

The Pirates Of The Caribbean actor is suing his ex-partner over a 2018 article she wrote in the Washington Post, titled: “I spoke out against sexual violence – and faced outrage anger of our culture. That has to change.”

The article did not mention Depp by name, but his lawyers said it falsely implied that he physically and sexually abused the Aquaman actress while they were together.

On Friday, both sides released their closing statements, urging juries to consider other victims of domestic abuse.

The jury is currently looking at the case, which began April 11 and involves six weeks of evidence.
