Supermodel Kate Moss is having her body language analyzed in the days following her brief but powerful testimony during the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard defamation trial.

On Wednesday, the British supermodel took to the stand via video call and captivated the Virginia Fairfax courtroom as a witness for the Pirates of the Caribbean actor's legal team.

Now, a body language expert is weighing in on what Kate was silently conveying.

All eyes were on Johnny Depp's former girlfriend Kate Moss on Wednesday.

The 48-year-old joined the Fairfax Virginia courtroom via video call to testify about her relationship with the actor between the years 1994 and 1997.

Though brief, Kate's words were concise and important for Johnny's legal time.

Earlier in the trial, Amber had referred to an alleged incident between Kate and Johnny when the pair were on holiday together during their relationship.

The Aquaman actress mentioned Johnny's ex while discussing an alleged altercation between the actor and her sister, Whitney Henriquez.

Amber alleged that her sister was near a staircase "in the line of fire … trying to get Johnny to stop," which reminded Amber of the rumored incident with Kate.

"[Whitney's] back was to the staircase, and Johnny swings at her," the 36-year-old testified. "I don't hesitate, I don't wait — I just, in my head, instantly think of Kate Moss and stairs."

"And I swung at him," she continued of the alleged March 2015 incident between herself, her sister Whitney and Johnny.

While testifying about the aforementioned night in Jamaica, Kate recalled: "We were leaving the room and Johnny left the room before I did. There had been a rainstorm and as I left the room I slid down the stairs."

"I hurt my back. And I screamed because I didn't know what had happened."

As reported by Daily Mail, Kate recalled that the actor came running back to help her. "[He] carried me to my room and got me medical attention."

When asked by Johnny's legal team if the actor had ever pushed her down any stairs, Kate replied "no."

"He never pushed me, kicked me or threw me down any stairs," she said.

The model was then asked if she has ever testified in any case before, to which she replied "No."

Now, a body language expert is weighing in on Kate's demeanor.

Speaking with Daily Mail, body language expert Judi James explained that she believes the pair still have feelings of admiration for one another despite breaking up 20+ years ago.

"[When] asked, 'Do you know Jonny Depp?' Kate's very subtle facial movements suggest residual warmth at the memory. The right side of her mouth curls up in a subtle smile as she says, 'Yes I do,'" explained Judi.

"Kate gives the impression of being polite, smiling sweetly and apologetically when speaking over the lawyer and being interrupted by him," she added.

"Despite the fact that she is famously private, her blink rate and her shoulder angle look devoid of any signs of stress or anxiety."

When asked about the alleged abuse, Judi says Kate "becomes more animated, seeming to be close to laughter as she says 'he never pushed me or kicked me.'"

It's clear that while Kate was nervous, she was determined to speak her truth for her ex.
