Sister of Johnny Depp says Mom physically abused them we vowed never to repeat

John Christopher Depp II is an actor, producer, and musician from the United States. He has won numerous awards and nominations, including a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild Award, as well as three Academy Awards and two British Academy Film Awards.

“None of what was happening in our home felt good,” Johnny Depp’s

Christi Dembrowski, Johnny Depp’s sister, spoke in court Tuesday about being mistreated as a youngster by their mother, Betty Sue Palmer.

Depp, 58, sued his ex-wife Amber Heard for defamation over a Washington Post op-ed she penned in 2018 on surviving domestic violence, though she never mentioned Depp by name. Dembrowski, 61, testified on Tuesday in the Fairfax County Courthouse in Virginia about the cruelty she and her brother witnessed at home when they were children.

“We would run and hide,” she recalled of seeing her mom being abusive toward their father, who she said would not react. Dembrowski added, “She would hit us. She would throw things.” When asked if Depp ever hit back at his mom when she was abusive, Dembrowski said no, “He never went to that place.”

She said, “none of what was happening in our home felt good. And so, as I got older, both Johnny and I actually, we decided that once we left, once we had our own home, we were never going to repeat, ever, anything similar in any way to our childhood. We were gonna do it differently.”
