Moss said that Depp "took care of her."

In an interview with Vanity Fair in 2012, Moss reflected on her relationship with Depp.

“There’s nobody that’s ever really been able to take care of me. Johnny did for a bit. I believed what he said,” she said, via USA Today. “Like if I said, ‘What do I do?’ he’d tell me. And that’s what I missed when I left. I really lost that gauge of somebody I could trust. Nightmare. Years and years of crying. Oh, the tears!”

Heard alleged that Depp threw Moss down the stairs.

During her testimony in the trial, Heard alluded to a rumor that Depp had thrown Moss down a set of stairs during their relationship. It seems likely that Moss will be asked about whether this incident actually occurred, and given the fact that Depp's lawyers are the ones who called her, it's fairly easy to guess what her answer will be.
