Johnny Depp says he has his "life back" after winning his high-profile defamation case against ex-wife Amber Heard. The actor's been awarded just over 10-million dollars in damages over an article she wrote which claimed she'd been a victim of sexual abuse. Heard counter-sued - she'll get 2-million in damages.

The whole case and outcome has thrown a light on how people in situations like this are treated and sparked fears that people might be less inclined to speak out about their experiences. Andrea spoke to listeners who got in touch about their experiences.
