Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly always have me weird vibes ngl.

He doesn't want to get dragged in court and show his true colours.

[bostongirl2003]

mte, it does him no good booking future jobs to testify that he and JD are coke buddies

[quinnmorgendorf]

Didn't he basically propose to her because of 9/11? Like they weren't even dating, or friends really. They're still married so I guess it worked out but that will never not be weird to me.

omg i just read about that, what kinda crazy ass shit?!
he also talks about her "piercing blue eyes" which are green but ok

[jime22]

TPTB Marvel/Disney probably "adviced" him to back away from this

[evett]

Paul not about to lose his Disney bag

[m14mouse]

Agreed. Everyone was so wild about wandavision. I couldn't watch with him in it. I hate him and Vision.

[yomommafoo]

Omfg this whole time. I had no idea who he was. I was like insert Keke Palmer sorry to this man the whole thread.

Now I’m disappointed.

[anakisa]

probably because depp started going off about supplying him with drugs (+ that disney money)
sad i had to end my crush on jennifer connelly over this, but if you stay married to shit, you're shit too

[masktaster]

I feel the same re: Jennifer, what a shame

[carolinga]

I don't know. There can be a lot of reasons someone stays in a relationship. Unless I knew the dynamics between them, I wouldn't just dismiss her. Personally speaking.

[anakisa]

i will retract what i said if it comes to light she's in an abusive relationship, for sure

[thatcovergirl]

So… are they both just toxic for each other in the worst way?

Whose side am I supposed to be on?

Is Amber the victim or JD ?

The audio makes her out to be a monster and him to be a loving, soft spoken husband.

But I have a feeling they are two people that hate each other and they each want to play victim? Maybe? Idk 🤷🏾‍♀️

[inkstainedlips]

There is always more to the audio clips his team releases. One example they love is the clip of Amber saying "tell the world Johnny, tell them Johnny Depp, I Johnny Depp, a man, I'm a victim too of domestic violence" but they edit out the part where she said she was afraid JD was going to kill her. I've shared it in other posts but here is the [full context]Amber says she thought JD would accidentally kill her, and he responds by whining about the boo boo on his finger instead of saying "I never touched you". And that's when she says 'how are you going to tell a jury you were the victim

[thatcovergirl]

Thanks for this

[t3pps]

I'm sorry but I can't get over him waking around the house dressed like he's on safari with a Bon Jovi cover band. The no doubt in my mind he did everything she said and more.
