ALBAWABA - On Mother's Day in the US, Amber Heard released an Instagram post announcing the birth of twins.

The American actress declared that she was "elated beyond words" to celebrate the "completion" of her family after welcoming a girl, Agnes, and a son, Ocean.

In 2021, Heard, 39, gave birth to Oonagh, her first daughter.

"Becoming a mother by myself and on my terms despite my fertility challenges has been the most humbling experience of my life," Heard said beneath a photo of three pairs of feet.

The actress expressed her overwhelming joy, stating that she had chosen parenting "responsibly and thoughtfully."

She said she had "strived to build for years" to have a family.

"To all the moms, wherever you are today and however you got here, my dream family and I are celebrating with you," she said.

Heard expressed her want for it to become "normalized to not want a ring to have a crib" when she announced the arrival of her first daughter in 2021.

At the time, she posted on Instagram, "I now appreciate how radical it is for us as women to think about one of the most fundamental parts of our destinies in this way."

Heard's most well-known works include Zombieland, Aquaman, Drive Angry, and The Rum Diary.

From 2015 to 2016, she was wed to Johnny Depp, an actor.

Following the dissolution of their marriage, the couple filed two protracted and well-publicized defamation lawsuits against one another and accused one another of domestic abuse.

Heard provided testimony to support allegations that Depp was a "wife-beater" in the tabloid, which led to Depp losing his UK libel action against the Sun newspaper in the Depp v. News Group Newspapers (NGN) trial in 2020.

Heard was found guilty of defaming Depp in the highly publicized Depp v. Heard trial in the United States.

A court in the US state of Virginia presented details of the couple's turbulent relationship for six weeks in 2022.

Although it did not specifically name him, Depp filed a defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife for an opinion piece she wrote for the Washington Post alleging she was a victim of domestic abuse. Heard filed a countersuit.

Depp, who denied mistreating Heard, was given $15 million (£12 million) in compensation and punitive damages by the jury.

Heard received $2 million in compensatory damages after winning one of three counterclaims against Depp.
