Camille Vasquez is putting an end to those pesky Johnny Depp dating rumors once and for all. The famed lawyer chatted with People regarding all of the interest surrounding herself and the “Pirates of the Caribbean” star, and she’s slamming reports that the two are anything more than just friends. “It’s disappointing that certain outlets kind of ran with it or said that my interactions with Johnny — who is a friend and I’ve known and represented for four-and-a-half years now — … were inappropriate or unprofessional,” she told the outlet. “That’s disappointing to hear.”
Vasquez added that the rumors come “with the territory of being a woman just doing her job.” She also said that since she’s Colombian and Cuban, it’s just in her nature to hug everyone but it’s not something that she is “ashamed” of. “I care very deeply about my clients, and [Johnny and my team] have obviously become close,” she said of her relationship with Depp while stating that her work is her love, and “when I love, I love really deeply.”
As fans who watched the trial know, Vasquez and Depp frequently hugged in court, thus bringing the romance rumors to a head. On May 18, TMZ stopped the lawyer and asked whether or not she and Depp were dating. In reply, Vasquez simply smiled and then walked away without addressing the question. The Daily Mail reports that she’s not dating Depp but rather a WeWork executive.
