Body language expert Judi James has commented on rumors of a romantic relationship between Johnny Depp and his lawyer Camila Vazquez.
The expert analyzed their nonverbal communication in the courtroom while considering the actor’s lawsuit against his ex-wife, Amber Heard.
In her comment to the Daily Mail, James said Vazquez’s flirtatious behavior may be a tactic to advance her client’s cause. According to the expert, the romantic gestures between them help Depp appear “more beautiful” in court.
“When someone tries to clear his name in court, the behavior and interaction of his legal teams with them sends very strong nonverbal signals to the jury, and in a case of this magnitude, to the entire world,” James said.
A possible love affair between the actor and the lawyer has been reported by TMZ. Videos of the hugs of Depp and Vasquez circulated on the network, after which the journalists directly asked the girl a question about her relationship with the client. Vasquez did not answer and smiled.
