Amber Heard has

she unveiled her partner

WENN reports
December 5th,

The Pineapple Express star
happily posed with girlfriend
Tasya van Ree,
who she has reportedly been
dating since 2008,
at the Los Angeles ceremony.
At the show,
which was the first public
outing for the couple,
Heard explained her decision
to reveal her homosexuality,
insisting she didn’t want to be
“a part of the problem”
by hiding her true
self any longer.
She tells AfterEllen.com,
“I think GLAAD is one of
the many reasons that I,
as a 24 year old,
can come out.”

“I think that organizations
like GLAAD make that possible
because if it weren’t for
opinions being changed,
people being influenced,
people being engaged to
do the right thing,
then there would be no
prerogative for anyone
to come out.”

“Like I said,
I can’t be a part
of the problem.
I hate the idea of a label
just as much as anyone else
but I’m with who I’m with,
I love who I love and I’m
if not a better actress (sic)
than I was yesterday and
my personal life should
have no effect on that…”

“I personally think that if you
deny something or if you
hide something you’re
inadvertently admitting
it’s wrong.”
_____![]()
“I don’t feel like I’m wrong.
I don’t feel like millions of
people are wrong because
they love who they love or
they were born how
they were born.”

Speaking about Ree,
Heard adds,
“She’s so beautiful.
I mean,
you’d have to be crazy
not to want to go out
with her!”
