A psychologist was on the stand Wednesday to testify about Amber Heard's relationship with Tesla CEO Elon Musk, which took place shortly after Heard split from ex-husband Johnny Depp.

Heard admitted in an interview with psychologist Dr. Dawn Hughes that she was still "heartbroken" when she met Musk and began dating him.

"I was heartbroken," Heard told Hughes. "My soul was dead. Felt nothing then."

Heard met the CEO at the 2016 Met Ball. Hughes noted the claim that the two began dating "sometime after the TRO [temporary restraining order]." The psychologist interviewed and evaluated Heard over roughly 29 hours from 2019-2021.

Musk would go on to make a number of donations to the American Civil Liberties Union during his relationship with Heard. His contributions added up to over $6 million, with some donations made in Heard's name.

The CEO was on Heard's witness list but has since revealed that he will not virtually testify during the trial and his deposition will be shown in court instead.

Depp's legal team began the cross-examination of Hughes Wednesday, playing an audio recording on which Heard admitted to hitting Depp first. Hughes had previously testified that it is "common" for women in abusive relationships to respond with "reactive violence" when their partners attack.

"If it’s true, if she hit him first, then that would not be reactive violence," Hughes said.

Hughes saw Depp's deposition, text messages, audio messages, and notes from couples therapy sessions but never met with him in person. She also did not interview Dr. Laurel Anderson, their couples counselor, who testified earlier in the trial that Heard tended to hit Depp first because he "triggered" her.

The psychologist claimed to know of a knife Heard gifted to Depp that featured the phrase "until death" in Spanish. Depp had told Heard, according to Hughes, that "the only way out of the relationship was death," and Heard engraved the phrase he'd inspired.

Due to a judicial conference, Depp's trial against Heard will be in recess next week and resume on May 16.
