By now, a lot of people have gotten familiar with Camille Vasquez, one of Johnny Depp's lawyers. Among her legal team, she's recently been gaining popularity after her feistiness against Amber Heard became a topic of discussion for many. She grilled the 36-year-old actress with one question after another and scrutinized the evidence that existed against her, as well as exposed her lies in the court.
However, the public was recently tickled with her rather quiet response regarding one question: is she dating Johnny Depp, her client?
She was approached by TMZ who shot her a straightforward question, "The people want to know, are you dating Johnny Depp? It’s all over the internet. Can you set the record straight, yes or no?"

But she kept her lips sealed, seemingly unfazed by the aggressive questioning nor pressed to give any answer whatsoever.

Vasquez became the internet's favorite after she openly questioned Heard's pictures' credibility, comparing them to paparazzi and red carpet snaps from the next day of her supposed abuse.

The internet has been in love with the Californian litigator expert and showed it, from making hilarious memes to printing "I heart Camille Vasquez" on T-shirts. She's received love for representing Depp and made a strong presence against Heard during the cross-examinations.
Many have gone even further into speculating whether they're romantically involved as the two seemed to have grown closer over the time they worked together. Particularly in this picture where she hugged Depp after they were done with the day.

The two appeared cheerful the next day after the picture was taken. Vasquez and Depp were smiling all morning as they prepared for the court.
People had been making TikTok clips of flirty moments and look they seemed to gave each other on the court. While these are all still speculations, Vasquez's refusal to deny the rumors had got people wondering.
Vasquez appears to be enjoying Depp's positive reputation that also put her in a positive spotlight.
Crisis coordinator Juda Engelamayer who previously represented Harvey Weinstein spoke of Vasquez, "Johnny Depp is wining on social media – so his lawyer is doing the same. Historically, women who have defended men accused of sex crimes are met with online hate. But Camille Vasquez seems to have benefited from Johnny’s praise."
While she's continued to put out what appeared to be an excellent performance in exposing Heard's lies, a former close friend of Depp and Heard had insisted that Heard did not fake her bruises.

Raquel Pennington spoke against accusations that Heard had faked her injuries in the pictures that she took herself on multiple occasions and stood by Heard's side that she's the victim.
