Amber Heard screamed insults at Johnny Depp including calling him 'fat' and 'washed up' and was physically aggressive towards him during a trip to the Bahamas, this according to an estate manager on the island who testified in court.

According to multiple reports,Tara Roberts, an estate manager working for the actor on his private island in the Bahamas, took the stand in the 'Pirates Of The Caribbean' star's lawsuit against a UK Tabloid.

Roberts told the court during a Christmas visit to the island, she witnessed Amber "screaming and berating" Depp as he asked her to "go away" and claimed she saw a "red, swelling gash" on his nose.

At the time, Depp told her that Amber had thrown a can of 'lacquer-thinner' at his face.

"I observed in December 2015 to my colleagues that Amber was a 'thrower,' someone who threw projectiles," Tara said in he witness statement to the court. She also alleged she saw Heard "lunge violently at Johnny, pull his hair, and commit other aggressive physical acts against him."

The estate manager described the events which took place in December of 2019 when the couple along with Johnny's two children were staying on the island.

"While I could not hear what caused the fight, Amber repeatedly berated him with increasing ferocity," she said about the argument.

“She was insulting him, calling him names, and in the middle of this onslaught I heard her say specifically ‘your career is over’, ‘no one is going to hire you’, ‘you’re washed up’, ‘fat’, ‘you will die a lonely man’, and also screaming things that were incomprehensible.”

Roberts told the court, via video link, she has worked for the 'Pirates' star since December of 2008. She described him as an "unusually kind man" and said she had never seen him be "violent or aggressive with Heard, or anyone else."

The estate manager was cross-examined by an attorney for the media outlet who showed Roberts a previously played video of Depp cussing and kicking a cabinet. "Would you agree it shows a different side of his character from the one you speak of in your witness statement?” the lawyer asked.

Roberts answered, "No."

As we reported, the trial is now in its sixth day of testimony and is expected to last several more weeks. Johnny Depp spent the first five days on the stand and others including Winona Ryder and his ex-wife Vanessa Paradis are expected to testify in the coming days.
