Amber Heard was the "antagoniser" in her relationship with Johnny Depp, often "goading" and attempting to provoke the actor, the UK High Court has heard.

The couple argued "like schoolchildren", with rows starting from "banal beginnings" before escalating, according to Mr Depp's former estate manager.
