Amber Heard has surprised fans by announcing that she has become a mother to twins.

The 39-year-old actress took to social media with the news on Mother’s Day in the US, uploading a cute photo of her babies’ tiny feet.

She had already revealed that she was pregnant in December but did not share the sex of her baby or that she was having twins.

Her caption to her 5.1million followers read: ‘Mother’s Day 2025 will be one I’ll never forget. This year I am elated beyond words to celebrate the completion of the family I’ve strived to build for years. Today I officially share the news that I welcomed twins into the Heard gang.’

She confirmed that she’s welcomed a daughter named Agnes and a son called Ocean, joking that they are keeping her ‘hands full’ as well as her heart.

‘When I had my first baby girl Oonagh four years ago, my world changed forever,’ she said, having welcomed her first child via surrogacy in 2021.

‘I thought I couldn’t possibly burst with more joy,’ Amber continued. ‘Well, now I am bursting times three!!!’

She added sweetly: ‘Becoming a mother by myself and on my own terms despite my own fertility challenges has been the most humbling experience of my life.

‘I am eternally grateful that I was able to choose this responsibly and thoughtfully.’

Amber, who was previously in a high-profile relationship with Johnny Depp, concluded: ‘To all the moms, wherever you are today and however you got here, my dream family and I are celebrating with you. Love always,
A x’
