Amber Heard's alleged text messages may have just gone public -- and the exchange is pretty shocking!

Entertainment Tonight obtained what their source claims is a text message exchange between Heard and Depp's assistant, Stephen Deuters, from 2014, in which Deuters begs Amber to forgive Depp after an alleged kicking attack.

The texts, which ET's source claims are from May 2014, show that Deuters allegedly wrote, "[Johnny] was appalled. When I told him he kicked you, he cried. It was disgusting. And he knows it."

ET's report says Heard responded, "He's done this many times before ... And I always stay." At the end of the conversation, Heard wrote, "I don't know if I can stay with him."

Some may think this is "proof" of attacks, however, this is not proof of anything. We don't know if the receipt of these texts is actually Heard, or the assistant, nor do we know when and if these texts were actually sent. Do these screen grabs damn him in the court of popular opinion? They most certainly can ...

However it must be noted that ET was not able to independently verify the recipients of the messages nor whether they've been edited. Neither the assistant nor Depp's rep have commented on the texts.

In court documents, Depp's divorce attorney, Laura Wasser, has claimed that Heard is "attempting to secure a premature financial resolution by alleging abuse."

The twists and turns don't seem to stop in this crazy story ... a new report claims that Heard has not filed a police report because (despite the mess) she still loves her husband and "doesn't want to bury him," according the TMZ. Earlier this week, Heard's lawyer said the actress was going to report the May 21 phone-throwing incident to the LAPD. However, the gossip site is reporting she's now had a "change of heart" because she doesn't want to see Depp arrested or prosecuted.

But she wants to see him skewered by the media?
