A string of social media videos have surfaced online, with people speculating whether Johnny Depp and his attorney Camille Vasquez were dating after having appeared to be very friendly towards one another during the actor’s $100 million defamation trial against his ex-wife Amber Heard. But according to sources via TMZ, there’s absolutely no truth in the rumor that’s generated a lot of steam on platforms such as Twitter and TikTok.
A heap of videos posted on social media from the trial has shown the Pirates of the Caribbean star and his lawyer openly embracing one another with plenty of hugs and what some described as flirtatious gestures. One particular clip that has received over 300k likes on TikTok showed Camille touching Johnny in what was expressed to be an intimate manner, while another video shows the father-of-two often whispering into Camille’s ear, bringing her to laughter and giggles.

And while social media users seemed convinced they were onto something with their theory, insiders tell TMZ that there’s absolutely nothing going on between the pair. Camille is reportedly in a relationship with a British real estate expert whom she has been dating for several months, which therefore refutes claims of any romantic relationship with her client. It was further said that Camille doesn’t believe Johnny has treated her any different than to the other lawyers on his legal team, adding that everyone is just trying to keep up the positive mood as Amber took to the stand last week and gave her testimony.

Interestingly enough, though, the reputable news publication asserts that Johnny’s legal team is looking forward to a triumphant victory by the month’s end when the Hollywood star’s court case concludes, which they believe will go in their client’s favor.
A spokesperson for the 58-year-old gave a statement after Amber’s second day of giving her testimony, where she made claims such as allegedly being slapped by Johnny for laughing at one of his tattoos, being abused amid a flight on his private jet, and recalling him put his hands on her sister Whitney — all of which his legal team says are fabricated lies.
In a statement from Johnny’s spokesperson, they said, “While Ms. Heard’s stories have continued to grow new and convenient details, Mr. Depp’s recollections have remained exactly the same throughout the six painful years since her first allegations were made. His truth — the truth — is the same no matter the environment in which it has been presented.”
“The upcoming cross examination from Mr. Depp’s team will be most telling, and will certainly highlight the many fallacies Ms. Heard has now attempted to pass off as fact throughout her convoluted testimony.”
The trial will resume on May 16 when the cross-examination from Johnny’s team begins, and Amber will be put in the hot seat.
