According to Page Six, a London court heard arguments that exposed some disturbing facts about Johnny Depp’s prior relationship with Amber Heard.

Apparently, during their relationship, Johnny texted that he would “burn” and “drown” his ex-wife, then “f–k her burnt corpse.”

The 2013 messages were allegedly sent from Johnny to friend Paul Bettany, and were read out loud in court yesterday.

Page Six reports that Johnny attended the hearing, and was in the room as his texts to Paul were read aloud — including one text that read: “Let’s burn Amber.”

The court was told he allegedly texted Paul again that day to say, “Let’s drown her before we burn her!!! I will f–k her burnt corpse afterwards to make sure she is dead.”

The court also heard texts allegedly sent to Paul in May 2014, which read: “I’m gonna properly stop the booze thing, darling… Drank all night before I picked Amber up to fly to LA, this past Sunday…Ugly, mate.”

Another read: “No food for days…powders…half a bottle of whiskey, a thousand red bull and vodkas, pills, 2 bottles of Champers on plane and what do you get..??? An angry, aggro Injun in a f–kin’ blackout, screaming obscenities and insulting any f–k who got near…I’m done. I am admittedly too f–ked in the head to spray my rage at the one I love…For little reason, as well I’m too old to be that guy But, pills are fine!!!”

Of course, the actor is in court for a preliminary hearing in his libel suit against British newspaper the Sun over an article that alleged he had been abusive to Amber.

Ouch… well, clearly these texts aren’t helping his case. We’ll see how the court reacts this week.
