Depp told the outlet, “He’d been drinking with Sam Fender this evening. And then I believe that the bar opened a berth space upstairs for them or something along those lines. And that’s where I saw him.”

“He was leaving from the upstairs place, which is where I managed to see him (to) shake his hand and (I) spoke to him very, very briefly. He smiled at me and said, ‘Thank you,’ and gave me a wink. And he seemed very gracious and happy with where he was and things like that,” Spedding added.

The 32-year-old continued: “He seemed very happy and comfortable. I think that’s really good. I’m glad that he’s in the UK with members of a band that he’s friends with and enjoying some music and enjoying himself because he deserves that.”

“Once people spotted him and realized that he was there, there was quite a lot of support. Some people were clapping, lots of people got overexcited, as they would do with that,” he told the magazine.

Meanwhile, iexclusivenews Nigeria reports that the jury returned a decision in favor of Depp in the high-profile defamation case, awarding him $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages.
