Amber said she had to ask herself if by being closeted, she was part of the problem in denying "millions of hard-working, tax paying Americans" their rights.

"I think GLAAD is one of the many reasons that I, as a 24-year-old, can come out," she explained.

Van Ree is a photographer and artist.  She and Heard have quietly been together since 2008 but the GLAAD celebration was their formal coming out as a couple.
