Kate Moss explains why she testified in the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard trial: 'I know the truth about Johnny'

Kate Moss is sharing why she testified in support of former boyfriend Johnny Depp during his defamation trial against ex-wife Amber Heard. In May the British supermodel appeared via video link to dispute rumors, which Heard referenced in her own testimony, that Depp had pushed her down some stairs during their relationship, which last from 1994 to 1998.

“I believe in the truth and I believe in fairness and justice," Moss, 48, said during her appearance on the BBC Radio 4 program Desert Islands Discs on Sunday, per the Sunday Times.

“I know the truth about Johnny," she continued. I know he never kicked me down the stairs. I had to say that truth."

Called as rebuttal witness by Depp's legal team, Moss explained the incident that sparked the rumors that the actor, now 59, had gotten violent during their stay at the Goldeneye Resort in Jamaica.

"We were leaving the room and Johnny left the room before I did," she told the court, noting that there had been a rainstorm.

"As I left the room I slid down the stairs and I hurt my back," she went on. "And I screamed because I was in — I didn't know what had 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."

Moss testified that Depp "never pushed me, kicked me or threw me down any stairs" at any point during their relationship.
