Johnny Depp’s former business managers have alleged that he physically abused his ex-wife Amber Heard, and then tried to cover it up.

Here are the disturbing details, via court documents obtained by People:

“[Joel Mandel, one of the managers,] was informed well after the fact through communications with various house staff and security that Depp had been extremely volatile and had sometimes ‘gotten physical’ with Heard,” the actor’s former managers at The Management Group (TMG) claim in legal docs filed in May and obtained by PEOPLE.
“Mandel was also later informed that Depp had violently kicked Heard during an incident that took place in or around 2014,” the docs add.

Depp has vehemently denied Heard’s abuse allegations, despite all sorts of evidence to the contrary.

But TMG says Depp is full of it, pointing to a series of texts between Heard and Depp’s longtime assistant, Stephen Deuters, detailing the night that Depp allegedly kicked Heard:

“TMG is informed and believes that Depp knew full well that the text messages were genuine, but pressured and berated his assistant to falsely challenge the texts publicly.”

In sum: Things are not going well for Depp, which is fine.
