It seems that Amber actually entered into a legally binding domestic partnership with Tasya Van Ree in the state of California in March 2008. However, their union was never recognized federally, as the U.S. Supreme Court didn’t make same-sex marriages legal in all 50 states until June 26, 2015. As far as Amber was concerned, however, their union was completely official. Per Mirror, Amber even went as far as changing her name to Amber van Ree. Tasya, according to her Instagram, is the creator of the company The Untamed Elemental. She's also a successful photographer known for shooting celebrities in black and white, and her work has been featured in many major publications and galleries globally.

"I think when I became aware of my role in the media, I had to ask myself an important question: 'Am I part of the problem?' And I think that when millions and millions of hard-working, taxpaying Americans are denied their rights and denied their equality you have to ask yourself what are the factors that are an epidemic problem and that’s what this is," she said. Amber and Tasya eventually called off their relationship in 2012, but Amber still has the latter's name tattooed on her to this day. In the years since, the actress has been linked to other stars, such as Paper Towns star Cara Delevingne and cinematographer Bianca Butti, but she hasn't made it official with anyone else besides Johnny.AdvertisementMore from Distractify Amber Heard's Drama With Johnny Depp Rages on — but Who Is She Dating Now?
