Model Naomi Campbell has shown her support for Johnny Depp together with a raft of other celebrities including Sharon Osbourne, Pretty Little Liars star Ashley Benson and comedian Morgana Robinson.

No sooner had the just reached its verdict in the Johnny Depp, Amber Heard defamation trial, celebrities began casting their own thoughts as well. 

Campbell simply posted four hearts underneath Depp's statement.

Benson, meanwhile, posted a photo of Depp on her Instagram with the caption: 'YESSSSS.'

Musician Ryan Adams, himself accused of physical and emotional abuse in 2019 by numerous women, posted a message with a heart, prayer hands and flame emojis in reaction to Depp's statement.

Reality TV and YouTube star Harry Jowsey, commented: 'That was the craziest 7 weeks!! Johnny Depp won #JohnnyDepp.'

But there were also some in showbusiness who took Amber Heard's side, although perhaps less explicitly. 

Amy Schumer posted an uplifting feminist quote without directly referring to Heard. It garnered support from Lindsay Lohan who replied with some praising hands.

The Mandalorian's Gia Carano re-posted Johnny Depp's statement together with her own remarks.

'I also hope the postition will now return to innocent until proven guilty, both within the courts and in the media. Johnny Depp #truthwins'

Speaking on Piers Morgan's TalkTV show, Sharon Osbourne was shocked by the verdict.  

'Wow, it wasn't what I was expecting. I mean, I wanted Johnny to win but I didn't expect him to,' she said. 

Osbourne went on to describe Johnny as a 'gentle soul' and a 'good human being' as she detailed one off-camera occasion that she believed proved his good character. 

She said: '[Johnny] is a gentle soul. I can tell you last night, he spent about 45 minutes in his dressing room on his knees, talking to this little girl that was reading her diary to him. 

'Now, I don't know many guys that would sit back and do that. There weren't any cameras around there were no film crews. He did it because he's a gentle soul.'

'Sometimes, I suppose, he lost his rag, but as a human being he's a good human being,' she added.

Yet Sharon noted that the couple's relationship was 'toxic', stating: 'For me, I related to it so much and I know alcoholic behavior inside out and backwards… but they were both abusive, both very, very abusive to each other. 

'I think that he's going to get his career back, I really do,' she said.

'I think that all the great big filmmakers will want Johnny because when it comes down to it, it's how strong an audience you have? Johnny Depp has a huge worldwide audience.'

Greg Ellis who starred alongside Depp in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise as Lieutenant Commander Groves took to social media to support his former costar.
