Johnny Depp’s lawyer Camille Vasquez goes ‘on record’ to set record straight on dating rumours
Johnny Depp's former lawyer, Camille Vasquez, has gone 'on record' to set the record straight once and for all on dating rumours between the pair.
Vasquez represented the 61-year-old Pirates of the Caribbean actor during the highly-publicised defamation case against his ex-wife, Amber Heard, 38, a few years back in 2022.
The legal dispute came started in 2018, after the Aquaman actress wrote an op ed in The Washington Post which suggested she was a victim of domestic abuse, titled: "I spoke up against sexual violence - and faced our culture's wrath. That has to change."

The trial ended with Heard paying Depp a $1 million (£795,000) legal settlement with five different charities of his choosing selected as the beneficiaries of the money.
After the trial, the rumour mill went into overdrive after speculation arose that a romance had blossomed between Depp and the US attorney.
Well, Vasquez has since addressed the rumours - which she surprisingly caught light of from her own parents.
She did note, however, that they 'knew definitely' that the online theories didn't have any real truth to them.
Speaking with Extra last week (1 November), the 40-year-old denied the dating rumours and even claimed she would 'never' even go there.
"I would never," Vasquez declared.
She then added: "Let me just go on the record here: never dated Johnny Depp. Never would date Johnny Depp. I think he's a lovely person… He's not my type."
Not only did she reveal she'd 'never' cross that line with her former client, but she also revealed she's 'never' seen the Hollywood A-lister in one of his many blockbuster smash-hits.
"Maybe Chocolat?" Vasquez wondered, speaking of the 2001 rom-com also starring the likes of Judi Dench and Juliette Binoche.
Vasquez also said she's also 'never' seen the actor in any of the ultra-popular Pirates of the Caribbean films - which consist of five movies between 2003 to 2017.
She admitted; "Never to this day.
"I have not seen him in Pirates."
However, while she's maybe not seen him up on the silver screen, the attorney did note that Depp was extremely unique and 'such an artist'.
Reflecting on the first time they met, she said: "After maybe 30, 40 minutes of speaking with him, I remember having an out-of-body experience and looking at him and thinking, 'He views the world so differently than I do'."
Vasquez added: "He definitely uses a different part of his brain.
"He's such an artist."
