Though, regarding Depp/Heard, I maintain it wasn't as black-and-white as the public consensus figured it was - I suspect there was some degree of mutual abuse, and Depp was hardly entirely blameless in the proceedings. Now naturally we shouldn't automatically believe women when they claim abuse and not believe men when they do the same, but I do genuinely think it was a case of mutual abuse, where both Depp and Heard were quite abusive with each other (and remember - Heard might be an actor, but Depp is too).
Yeah, I think we all can agree that it was a toxic relationship. My opinion is that Heard was the aggressor and Depp went low instead of going high. By the evidence of the case, Heard's part in it was much worse than Depp's.
I don't want to derail the thread or relitigate the trial but if a guy said "I wasn't punching you, I was hitting you" to a girl at school they'd be suspended (if not expelled).
