"I entered the room, and felt amnesic at once due to an incredible tremor. I started speaking Russian to Depp, said something like: 'Here you are, my sweetheart. I came here only because of you!'

Anastasiya said she felt a bit awkward at the time. She addressed him in English asking how things were, prompting his answer: "Oh, everything is fine, thanks." Several seconds later, the meeting was over, the woman complained.
