The pair are currently going through an explosive defamation trial in Virginia which Johnny, 58, filed against Amber, 35, as a result of her penning a Washington Post op-ed about experiencing domestic violence.
As the trial continues, the actor has had some of the text messages he wrote about Amber read out to the court where Johnny reportedly spoke of wanting to drown and burn his ex-wife. Johnny then responded by branding his question as “strange”, before proceeding to admit that he’d had done drugs and drank alcohol with Paul.Asking Johnny if he could see the message, the 58 year old confirmed that he could.“The next text down says: ‘Let's drown her before we burn her!!!'’ I read that right?”Benjamin Rottenborn then apologised to the court before reading out the next message.
