Shocking details in Johnny Depp and Amber Heard break-up emerge

Los Angeles - Johnny Depp accidentally cut off his fingertip in a fit of rage, it has been claimed.

TMZ reports that Johnny's estranged wife Amber Heard - who has accused him of domestic assault - alleged that the incident occurred in March 2015 when the couple had a huge argument at a villa in Australia.

The website has obtained a picture of the gruesome injury, which has been submitted as an exhibit in her case against him.

It has been claimed that during the row, Johnny "smashed several bottles and windows and also slammed a plastic phone against the wall unit". Amber alleges that one of the items cut his finger.

She also reportedly claimed that Johnny then dipped his injured finger in a pot of paint and used it to write words including ''Billy Bob'' and ''Easy Amber'' on the wall after accusing her of sleeping with Billy Bob Thornton, which she denied.

She also claimed that he waited for almost 24 hours to get treatment.

It was previously reported that Johnny needed surgery on his hand after punching a wall during an argument with Amber.

The 53-year-old actor flew back to the US from Australia in March 2015 after sustaining the injury while in the country to film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.
