Kate Moss heads out for a stroll as Amber Heard claims Johnny Depp ‘pushed model ex down the stairs’ as explosive libel battle rumbles on
- Amber told the High Court ‘He pushed Kate Moss down the stairs, I heard this from two people, and this was fresh in my mind’
- She made the allegation while admitting she’d punched Depp during an incident in March 2015 because she’d feared he might do the same to her sister Whitney
On Tuesday, Amber Heard claimed Johnny Depp pushed Kate Moss down the stairs while they dated in the 1990s.
And the model, 46, was seen enjoying a stroll through London as she went shopping at Miu Miu’s flagship store on Monday, just a day before the 34-year-old Aquaman star’s explosive claims.
Kate put on an effortlessly chic display in a recycled look as she paired a simply black top with a polka-dot faux-leather skirt.

Kate looked fresh-faced as she opted to go make-up free for her outing to the shops, which saw her re-wear an outfit she’d tried and tested on Thursday, last week.
The model stepped out in a pair of simple ballerina shoes and kept her personal items in a quilted black handbag that had a gold strap.
Kate’s golden locks were brushed into a sleek, straight style and the model ensured she kept her accessories simple so that all attention remained on her outfit.

Amber made the allegation in the High Court and claimed she punched Depp during an incident in March 2015 as she feared he might do the same to her sister Whitney.
Eleanor Laws QC, Depp’s lawyer, asked her about being violent towards Depp during the fight, Heard said: ‘He pushed Kate Moss down the stairs, I heard this from two people, and this was fresh in my mind.
‘I reacted in defence of my sister. I had for years been Johnny’s punch bag but for years I never hit him. It was the first time after all these years that I struck him back.’
Ms Laws accused Heard of ‘adding’ the Kate Moss incident during her evidence as she had never mentioned it before.
Ms Laws added: ‘You have added the detail about Kate Moss. It’s not contained in any document. You did not mention anything about Kate Moss being in your mind. You are just making this up as you go along. This is the first time that you have mentioned it.’
The court was then played an excerpt of Heard’s deposition in August 2016, in which she talks about the March 2015 incident. Laws repeated her allegation that there is no mention of Kate Moss.
Heard replied: ‘I have not had the liberty of time, space or energy to list every incident that’s listed in these proceedings.’

The actress has accused Depp of verbal and physical abuse throughout their relationship, including screaming, swearing, punching, slapping, kicking, headbutting and choking her, as well as ‘extremely controlling and intimidating behaviour’.
Depp, however, says he was ‘not violent towards Heard – it was she who was violent to him’, and claims his ex-wife was ‘building a dossier’ of false allegations as an ‘insurance policy for later’.
On Monday, the actress denied she had ‘thrown everything possible at Mr Depp’, telling the High Court: ‘I haven’t even scratched the surface.’
