“Johnny decided to go back to the UK while trial was out of session for the week,” an EXCLUSIVE source close to the actor informed HollywoodLife. “It’s been really refreshing for Johnny because it’s given him some personal space away from all the media attention surrounding the case. Johnny appreciates that he can go through town along the south coast and walk along the street virtually unnoticed. He’s using this week to re-energize for the next phase of the trial.”

It’s been incredible for him being around people he knows and trusts and feeling all the support and love.”

Although Johnny is being accused of abusing Amber, to whom he was married from 2015 to 2017, Johnny’s ex-wife of 14 years, Vanessa Paradis, 49 — who he shares two kids — also released a statement during his previous lawsuit against UK’s The Sun, who claimed Johnny was a “wife-beater” against Amber, “I have known Johnny for 25 years. We have been partners for 14 years and we raised our two children together. Through all these years I’ve known Johnny to be a kind, attentive, generous, and non-violent person and father. I am aware of the allegations that Amber Heard has publicly accused Johnny of for more than four years now. This is nothing like the true Johnny I have known, and from my personal experience of many years, I can say he was never violent or abusive to me.”
