Howard Stern mocked Johnny Depp by branding him as a narcissist amid his ongoing defamation lawsuit against former wife Amber Heard.

The high-profile Depp X Heard defamation case makes headlines again.

Deep is suing Heard for defamation after the actress accused him of being physically violent in an op-ed piece written for The Washington Post back in 2018. The case has been controversial ever since.

The trial of the lawsuit was streamed live on multiple platforms from 11th April 2022. Heard’s publicity team tried to block the cameras, on the contrary, Depp remained silent and did not publicly oppose the cameras.

Stern did not stop at that as he further mocked Depp’s accent.

He said, “First of all, his difficulty in speaking the English language is fantastic. And the accent.” 

The television personality further stated, “First of all, isn’t he from the South of the Midwest? Johnny Depp was born in Kentucky. Does that sound like a guy from Kentucky?”

Depp, 58 years old, concluded his cross-examination on 25th April.

Heard, 36 years old, is yet to testify. She is scheduled to do so in the coming days.

Depp and Heard tied the knot in 2015 in a secret ceremony on a private island. Heard filed for a divorce a year later and the pair were officially divorced in 2017.

Deep filed for a $50 million lawsuit which was met with a nearly $100 million counterclaim by Heard and his team.

The trial for the defamation case started earlier this month in Fairfax, Virginia. It will be followed by Depp losing a libel case to the media outlet The Sun.
