Amber Heard on Friday dropped a bombshell accusation against her husband, Johnny Depp, claiming that he physically abused her.

Photos of Heard, 30, were published by TMZ on Friday, showing the actress with bruising around her right eye. Heard filed a temporary restraining order against her husband, saying Depp threw various items—including an iPhone—and hit her.

Depp has since denied everything.

Meanwhile, TMZ pointed to a photo of Heard that was taken after the alleged abuse last Saturday. A photo uploaded last Sunday shows Heard with her friends after the alleged iPhone attack—that appears to not show any bruising. That photo has been taken down from her account.

Depp’s only statement came on Thursday before the allegations of abuse.

“Given the brevity of this marriage and the most recent and tragic loss of his mother, Johnny will not respond to any of the salacious false stories, gossip, misinformation and lies about his personal life. Hopefully the dissolution of this short marriage will be resolved quickly,” read the statement.

In a restraining order on Friday, Heard requested $50,000 a month in spousal support from Depp, protection for her dog, and sole access to the downtown Los Angeles home that she and Depp shared since getting married, and sole access to the Range Rover she was driving. She also asked Depp to enroll in a year of anger management classes.

Reports say that Depp is worth at least $450 million.
