This makes his second former love to come forward in his defense!
Winona Ryder claims her actor ex Johnny Depp was "never abusive at all" during their four year relationship amid Amber Heard's domestic violence allegations.
"I can only speak from my own experience, which was wildly different than what is being said. He was never, never that way towards me. Never abusive at all towards me. I only know him as a really good, loving, caring guy who is very, very protective of the people that he loves," the actress told Time.
The pair met at a film premiere in 1990 and got engaged a mere five months later, so the Girl Interrupted star admits her perspective is one from a long time ago.
"I wasn't there. I don't know what happened. I'm not calling anyone a liar. I'm just saying, it's difficult and upsetting for me to wrap my head around it. Look, it was a long time ago, but we were together for four years, and it was a big relationship for me. Imagine if someone you dated when you were – I was 17 when I met him – was accused of that. It's just shocking. I have never seen him be violent toward a person before," she explained.
"It's just hard to picture. The only word I can come up with is unimaginable. You know with certain people you hear something and go, 'I can see that.' But this isn't that," she continued. "I can only offer my own experience. It's such a serious, horrible thing to be accused of," she concluded.
One thing's for sure -- Johnny doesn't any bitter exes except for Amber!
