The actress, 30, and her lawyer Samantha Spector appeared at the Superior Court of California County of Los Angeles on Friday (top right) where she filed for a domestic violence restraining order from Johnny Depp. In her declaration of petition for a restraining order, seen by MailOnline, Heard said: 'Johnny has a long-held and widely acknowledged public and private history of drug and alcohol abuse. He has a short fuse. He is often paranoid and his temper is exceptionally scary for me as it has proven many times to be physically dangerous and/or life threatening to me.' Last Saturday, during a heated row, Heard said an 'inebriated and high' Depp had grabbed her cellphone, 'wound up his arm like a baseball pitcher and threw the cell phone at me striking my cheek and eye with great force,' the court filing states. But police officers found 'no evidence of any crime', despite Heard appearing bruised in a picture she claims was taken after the alleged attack. The next day Heard was pictured smiling with friends (main image). The actresses' hair covered the areas of her face which appeared to have been bruised the day before. The photograph was posted on Instagram by British TV show host Amanda de Cadenet on Monday and Heard was tagged in it. But it has since been deleted.

In court documents, where she details the alleged violence during their 15-month marriage, Heard said she 'lived in fear' of the Pirates of the Caribbean star and the idea he could return to the L.A. condominium they shared to 'terrorize me physically and emotionally.' In the papers she said she was attacked by Depp last Saturday, when he allegedly threw an iPhone off her face. She took a selfie of the bruises she claims were as a result of the attack (left), which shows inflammation and redness on her right cheek around her eye. Heard looked stoic as she left the courthouse on Friday, dressed down in a black dress and wearing no make-up. The bruise that she alleges was the result of Depp's attack could still be seen on her face (right), but the mark appears to be much lower down on her cheek than one she filed as evidence of abuse. It is not clear whether the bruise seen on her face on Friday was a result of last Saturday's attack.

Homemade drugs, violent attacks over food and rampant gay prostitution have been exposed at one of America's toughest jails after seven people went in undercover as prisoners. The brave civilians posed as inmates for a documentary as they spent two months behind bars alongside dangerous thugs and drug dealers at Clark County Jail in Jefferson, Indiana. The volunteers were sent in with fake identities and were treated like prisoners for the full two months, with none of the inmates and hardly any of the jail's staff knowing they were not convicts. The undercover prisoners discovered that drug use was huge inside the jail. With illegal substances harder to get hold of, the inmates had taken to making their own homemade highs, including one called 'crack stick' (top left). The undercover prisoners also found that convicts would get into the most trivial of fights (bottom right), with one violent row (top right) breaking out after a man failed to give another his hash brown as promised. Gay prostitution was rife in the male section of the jail, with one inmate offering himself to others in exchange for items from the commissary (bottom left).

Groups of people have been pictured sunbathing at the famous Bath Royal Crescent after the Met Office predicted dry weather over the course of the day, while festival goers were spotted taking selfies at BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend at Powderham Castle in Exeter (main). Low cloud will be confined to some coastal areas, meaning the majority of Britain is predicted to remain dry. But scattered thundery showers are set to hit this afternoon and Brighton had a miserable start (inset). Sunday will be mostly dry with some warm sunshine before torrential rain threatens to spoil the fun on Bank Holiday Monday.

The relationship between Kate, Beatrice and Eugenie has not always been easy, the Mail can reveal. The three young royals are said to have something of a frosty friendship, with tensions surfacing in the early years of Kate's relationship with William - tensions which were palpable as the trio attended a garden party at Buckingham Palace this week (pictured).

This is the shocking moment a middle-aged woman was aggressively shoved and thrown to the floor by a policeman amid protests in France over laws that may end 35-hour working week. Her head is violently thrown back as she is rammed against a railing before falling to the tarmac. The man filming rushes forward to stop the awful behaviour but the policeman is already striding off, disinterested in the woman's state. The bystander helps the visibly distressed woman up as she yells after the officer. This is just one of the disturbing scenes that have been unfolding cross the country this week due to mass strikes in response to proposed labour law reforms. These would end legal protection of a 35-hour week currently enjoyed by French workers, and could make it easier to hire and fire people.

For more than 15 years now, I have reported on the steady flow of migrants heading for Europe. In countries across the Continent, I have spoken to those who have travelled thousands of miles, and never ceased to be amazed by their resilience and determination to find a better life. This week, on the quayside of pretty Porto Empedocle in Sicily, I came across a scene that convinced me more than ever that the explosion in migration is completely out of control. More than a thousand refugees of sub-Saharan origin arrived in Salerno from the Channel of Sicily (main image) this week after on Wednesday several migrants drowned after a heavily overcrowded boat they were sailing on overturned (inset image).

Donovan Livingston's awe-inspiring poem 'Lift Off', which he delivered to graduating Harvard students, has captivated millions of people around the world. The poem was met with a standing ovation in the room (inset), and has since inspired millions of others after a video of the speech was posted on Facebook.

EXCLUSIVE: British woman Monica O'Connor married her new husband Tim in a 'beautiful' ceremony on May 7, before leaving for what should have been an idyllic holiday in Thailand. The 28-year-old was one of at least two people killed when a speedboat full of tourists was struck by a 'big wave' on Thursday afternoon and capsized (inset), trapping people underneath it. Heartbreaking images from the couple's wedding show them holding hands under a cloud of pink blossom (right), and cuddling at the reception (left).

An impressive collection of photographs highlighting the environmental issues around the world is to be showcased at a famous photography exhibition in Kensington, London, next month. Sixty photographers were selected from 10,000 entries from 70 countries and the images will go on display at the Environmental Photographer of the Year exhibition at the Royal Geographical Society on June 29. Some of the photographs in the series include photographer Faisal Azim's picture of three gravel workmen who can barely see as they go about their daily duties working in Chittagong, Bangladesh (top left). Meanwhile, a man was photographed searching through rubbish while carrying two huge sacks at sunrise from behind the famous Taj Mahal in Agra, India (top right). Two workers were seen standing in a furnace - which belches out thick smoke - to make fertiliser and fish feed in West Bengal (bottom left). And Indonesian military soldiers were pictured wearing swimming goggles at Rimbo Panjang Village, Kampar, Riau, Indonesia, on September 5, 2015 (bottom right).

Since she was first taken to hospital 11 years ago after a severe reaction to an insect bite, Kirsty Keep has been admitted about 55 times suffering from ever worsening, debilitating symptoms. Diagnosed in 2008 with the auto-immune condition lupus - where the body produces too many antibodies which cause inflammation affecting the skin, joints and organs - Kirsty has, over the ensuing years, been prescribed a long list of medications. But in March, a lupus specialist at Guy's Hospital in London said her symptoms, including chronic pain and fits, might be caused by the genetic condition Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), which affects the skin, bones and connective tissue. She is now waiting to see another specialist at University College Hospital in London. The family, including mother Theresa, feels the NHS - unable to cure her - now regards Kirsty as a 'nuisance'.

The 148ft concept yacht, called La Petit Terrasse (top), is the brainchild of US designer Lujac Desautel and features flexible, open-plan spaces (bottom left) that can be used as sun decks, party spots or even a catwalk. Desautel designed it with an Italian fashion mogul in mind and said he set out to create a luxurious home on water. Guests would spend a lot of their time on the main deck (bottom right), where they could jump into the sea from a platform or go for a dip in an on-board pool.

Donald Trump's rallies in Fresno and San Diego - the latter just 15 miles from where his proposed wall on the US-Mexico border will stand if he wins the White House - were met with violent clashes between police, supporters and protesters Friday. About 1,000 protesters were waiting for him outside the San Diego Convention Center. Signs reading 'Trump incites hate' jockeyed for position with a white banner bearing the words 'F*** Trump' in oversize letters. Phalanxes of flag-bearing activists marched. Some hoisted Mexico's colors, while others flew banners from Chile, Cuba, Venezuela and elsewhere in the Spanish-speaking world.

As many as 35,000 fans, dressed as characters from comics, films, cartoons and computer games, came together at the Excel Centre in east London and 135,000 are expected over the three-day weekend. The bi-annual event has grown every year since it took off in the 2000s and one of the highlights is the amazing array of comic characters on show.

The £800million Harmony Of The Seas (centre) has been branded an 'unsafe building site' by its first outraged customers since setting sail for Rotterdam from Southampton on a four-night trip on May 22. Footage taken on the ship, which is nearly 330 foot longer than the Titanic, shows closed children's attractions, exposed extension cords and broken hoovers lying around (bottom left and right) and half-complete rooms with ladders in the middle (top right). Customers claimed drilling carried on through the night near cabin rooms, while another alleged that furious passengers were refusing to leave until they were given a refund.

A 35-year-old man has explained why he gave up life in London to go and 'become a goat' in the Swiss Alps. Thomas Thwaites, (pictured), was fitted with special prosthetic legs for the experiment. He persuaded a goatherd to let him hang out with his animals and even got a fake goat's stomach so he could pretend to eat grass just like his new pals.

Phil Daniels (pictured, second from right) and Toyah Wilcox are set to reprise their roles in a sequel to Quadrophenia, the cult film which came out in 1979. Quadrophenia starred Sting (far left), Mark Wingett (second left) and Leslie Ash (far right) as mods clashing with rockers in Brighton. The original ended with Daniels' character Jimmy riding a scooter over a cliff...or did he? The sequel, based on the book To Be Someone by Peter Meadows, takes up where the action left off. Jimmy is in and out of prison and having run-ins with London gangsters and the Russian mafia.

Gerald Foos (left), owner of the Manor House Motel (right), has been exposed as history's most dedicated and determined Peeping Tom, after he installed vents in the ceilings of his rooms and spent hours staring down and documenting the sex lives of his guests. He recorded the details with such care that he would even enter the rooms of the Colorado motel when guests were out to double check a woman's bra size. Now, Steven Spielberg has bought the rights to his meticulously kept diaries, to be turned into a film by Oscar-winning Sam Mendes.

A crew filming series North Woods Law captured the scene, which shows police uncovering the makeshift campsite that Geraldine Largay (top insert) had made as she waited for a rescue team that never came. The October 2015 footage shows a visibly shaken Maine Warden officer pulling back the tarpaulin of Largay's tent to see her remains underneath (left). Officers are also filmed examining her possessions, which were all contained in resealable bags (right).

Wilton Castle in Herefordshire is located on the bank of the River Wye, in the heart of the Wye Valley - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty straddled between England and Wales. The motte-and-bailey castle, which was originally built to guard the river crossing and protect the border, acted as a base for soldiers for 300 years. Today the five-bedroom mansion is a Grade I Scheduled Ancient Monument that has been carefully restored by the current owners for the past 10 years. It features elements of Norman, Elizabethan, Georgian and Victorian architecture as well as the romantic ruins of a Tudor manor house and is on the market for £1.495 million.

More than 1,400 officers and men (centre) took part in the Major General's Review - the first of two rehearsals for the Queen's annual birthday parade, The Trooping the Colour, on June 11. As majestic Union Jack flags fluttered from the tree-lined streets, members of the Household Cavalry (top left and right) - the British Army's official bodyguard of Her Majesty - paraded down with two hundred horses. The scenic parade route extended from Buckingham Palace, along The Mall to the Horse Guards Parade, Whitehall and back again.

Hilarious video shows a dog holding a cat in a fireman's lift as they make their way into a house has been filmed in Russia. Unfortunately the journey is hampered somewhat by the grey cat being of a similar size to the dog so his legs drag along ground. The woman filming talks in Russian throughout the clip yet makes no attempt to help the duo. It is unclear what was wrong with the cat, some have joked that it might be drunk while others believe it is injured.

British magician Damien O'Brien, 31, melts a 10p coin just by rubbing it between his fingers in mind-blowing magic trick. that leaves the circular coin looking more like a guitar pick during Facebook live at MailOnline's London office. The tattooed magician explains that he was 'blown away' as a child by David Blaine's trick in which he bends a coin but he wants to go one step further. 'It's a normal coin,' O'Brien insists as Kat checks his hands  - which are entirely normal, if not a little red from the exertion. The video has now been viewed over 21,000 times.
Damien O'Brien was first introduced to magic aged 12 but has since appeared on various television shows including BBC Three's Award Winning Show Killer Magic.

Yukako Fukushima, 44, from Osaka (top left) is an expert prosthetic specialist whose clients are mostly reformed Yakuza members (unnamed former crime boss top right). Her skills are revealed in a remarkable video. A fake pinkie, which can set you back £1,500, can come in over 1,800 tones. The parts are made from a special silicone, and the artificial pinkies even have fingerprints and nails. Within the Yakuza it is common practice to chop of the little finger as a punishment for failure.

Adorable Bobby's barks and whines were eventually heard by two farmers and an emergency team was scrambled to rescue him after he fell down a 60ft well in Gimingham, Norfolk (main picture). He was hauled to safety (top right and bottom right) and wagged his tail in delight as he was reunited with his delighted owner, Adrian Phillips. John Linden, watch manager with the Dereham urban search and rescue team, a specialist crew with the Norfolk fire service, said it was amazing the pooch had survived so well in the conditions. He said: 'It is just incredible to think that this dog has been missing for two weeks and possibly has been down that well for all that time. We have had a lot of rain so he must have been surviving off the water, and dogs eat mud and all sorts. But for a dog that had been down there that long it is incredible.'

Alarming video footage shows the Spaniard narrowly avoid being hit by two cars travelling at 70mph as he attempts to reach a group of youngsters filming him. They are alleged to have offered him a cannabis joint for completing the dangerous stunt on the A7 motorway near Vicar in Almeria, south east Spain. Police arrested the youths after seeing footage of the crazy act posted on WhatsApp and identified the man they were filming as a drug addict with a criminal past.

The nail-biting moment a Land Cruiser 4WD makes a crossing through very deep water, pictured main, in the Northern Territory has been caught on video by the passenger riding in the front seat. The video shows the water quickly becoming deeper as the driver, pictured inset, battles the difficult conditions. The car finally makes it through the crossing as a giggle of relief is heard from the people inside.

An entertaining video has captured what could be one of the most pathetic attempts at a break-in ever seen. In the longer form of the video, uploaded on YouTube by Bexar County Sheriff's Office, the young men are seen running around the outside of a house in San Antonio, Texas. Stuck for ideas, a man in a white t-shirt comes up with the ingenious suggestion of smashing a window with his unclothed elbow.
