Johnny Depp and Amber Heard's former agent took the stand in the actor's defamation trial Wednesday and brought up the actress' relationship with Elon Musk.

CAA agent Christian Carino, who happens to be an ex-fiance of Lady Gaga, told the jury in a Fairfax, Virginia court about his close personal relationship with both actors throughout their relationship, Yahoo! Entertainment reported.

In a pre-recorded deposition recorded on January 21, 2021, the talent agent said Depp was dropped from the sixth installment of "Pirates of the Caribbean" after Heard accused him of domestic violence, Fox News reported.

Carino noted that he had numerous talks with "Pirates" producer Jerry Bruckheimer and other movie executives, and the "nature of it was that the studio (Disney) was having difficulty employing him." 

The talent agent acknowledged that Bruckheimer did not explicitly say that Heard's allegations were the reason. However, he said it was clear from the context.

"My opinion is that Amber's accusations would have had the most dramatic impact on his off-screen reputation," Carino noted.

Carino also said that he never witnessed any abuse, and the actress never told him that Depp physically assaulted her. However, he noted that in July 2016, Heard asked him to arrange a meeting between her and Depp. 

He said Heard assured her that she would not accuse her ex-husband of violating a temporary restraining order (TRO) that was granted in May 2016 when she filed for divorce.

"I talked to Johnny about it... he was reluctant at first and then agreed," the talent agent noted.

Carino then borrowed a friend's house in San Francisco, where Depp and Heard first met. He said the former couple sat outside, inches away from each other, for "several hours," and everything was going well.

However, they rented and transferred to a hotel room to continue the conversation as the homeowner was about to return. This time, Carino said things did not go smoothly, as Johnny Depp and Amber Heard started arguing.

Agent Says Amber Heard Had Relationship With Elon Musk and Wants to Reconcile With Johnny Depp

Christian Carino also confirmed that Amber Heard had a relationship with Elon Musk. He was then shown a text message from August 2017 between him and Heard detailing the actress and the Tesla CEO's split.

"Dealing with breakup. I hate when things go public... I'm so sad," the actress texted Carino, who replied: "You weren't in love with him and you told me a thousand times you were just filling space."

The actress then said she knew and wanted a time to grieve and recover independently. The agent advised Heard to stop dating famous people if she wanted to avoid press attention.

When asked by Depp's lawyer if Heard was dating Musk at the time of the San Francisco meeting, Carino said he didn't know, but "they had definitely spent time together."

He noted that he learned of Amber Heard and Elon Musk's relationship "not long after" the meeting in July 2016. The agent also said that he believed that Heard still loved Depp, and the actress wanted to "reconcile" with the actor.

Depp's lawyer then read aloud this text message from Heard to Carino: "I've written so many notes, can you give him one? I don't know how or where to start... I have so many. Finally I am single, clear in my heart and mind. I just want him to know I love him and I am sorry."

The talent agent noted that Amber Heard was referring to Johnny Depp in the text and that the actress wanted him to deliver a letter to the actor.

Amber Heard and Elon Musk Open up About the 'Affair' While She Was Married to Johnny Depp

Johnny Depp's lawyers have accused Amber Heard of having "extra-marital affairs" with Elon Musk and James Franco. The two celebrities were included in the actress' list of 80 possible witnesses she plans to call upon to back up her story of being beaten and abused by her ex-husband.

Musk and Franco can tell the court if the actress told them about any fights or if any bruises were visible on her face during their visit to the former couple's apartment. Some videos surfaced wherein Heard was seen getting into the elevator of their apartment with Musk and Franco on separate occasions.

But in a 2020 statement, Heard said Musk did not visit her in their apartment in 2015 while Depp was away. The actress said she did not have any "illicit relationships," and she was not in touch with the SpaceX founder until the following year.

In the same year, Musk echoed what Heard claimed and said he and Amber started going out about a month after the actress' divorce filing.

"I don't think I was ever even in the vicinity of Amber during their marriage!" Musk noted.

But a witness in the high-profile case of Depp against a British newspaper at the High Court in London, Alejandro Romero, a concierge at the Eastern Columbia Building in Los Angeles, said he saw Musk visiting Heard when "Depp was in Australia."

Romero noted that "from March 2015 onwards, Ms. Heard was visited regularly late at night, at around 11pm to midnight, by Mr. Elon Musk." He added that Heard even gave the Tesla CEO his own fob to access the building.

The "Aquaman" actress has denied all these claims. But she has confirmed that James Franco was the one recorded in the elevator with her on May 22, 2016. She said they were only talking and the actor was asking her what happened to her face.

Depp lost the case at the High Court in London in 2020. The actor sued "The Sun" and its executive editor Dan Wootton after he was labeled as a "wife-beater" in the paper's 2018 headline.

The actor has accused Heard of being the "abusive one," arguing that the actress faked photos to make it look like he injured his ex-wife.

Depp further noted that the actress came into his life and took everything that was "worth taking" and allegedly destroyed what remained in his life. But despite his claims, the actor lost the libel case, and the judge concluded that he "regularly beat" her ex-wife.

Depp and Heard are now battling over a 2018 op-ed the actress wrote for the Washington Post, calling herself a domestic violence survivor.

The piece did not mention Depp by name, but the actor claimed he was booted from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise due to the "clear implication" that he was the abuser in his ex-wife's op-ed.

Johnny Depp further alleged that Heard was the actual "perpetrator" of the violent encounters that damaged their relationship. He is asking for $50 million in damages.

On the other hand, Amber Heard has filed a $100 million counterclaim against the actor, who she divorced in 2017, for nuisance.
