Amber Heard has revealed the birth of twins through an Instagram post shared on Mother’s Day in the United States.
The 39-year-old American actor announced she had welcomed daughter Agnes and son Ocean, expressing she was “elated beyond words” to celebrate the “completion” of her family. Heard previously became a mother to her first daughter, Oonagh, in 2021.
Accompanying a photo showing three pairs of feet, Heard wrote: “Becoming a mother by myself and on my own terms despite my own fertility challenges has been the most humbling experience of my life.”
The actor emphasized that she had chosen motherhood “responsibly and thoughtfully” and “couldn’t possibly burst with more joy.” She described her current family situation as one she had “strived to build for years.”
“To all the moms, wherever you are today and however you got here, my dream family and I are celebrating with you,” she added in her post.
When announcing her first daughter’s birth in 2021, Heard expressed her desire to normalize motherhood without marriage, stating: “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 is recognized for her roles in films including The Rum Diary, Drive Angry, Zombieland and Aquaman.
She was married to actor Johnny Depp from 2015 to 2016. Following their separation, both accused each other of domestic abuse, leading to two significant defamation cases.
In the 2020 Depp v. News Group Newspapers (NGN) trial, Depp lost his UK libel case against the Sun newspaper after Heard provided evidence supporting the publication’s claims that he was a “wife-beater.”
The highly publicized Depp v. Heard trial in the US lasted six weeks in 2022, during which a Virginia court heard extensive details about the couple’s volatile relationship. Depp sued Heard for defamation regarding an opinion piece she wrote for the Washington Post suggesting she was a domestic abuse victim, though it didn’t mention him specifically. Heard filed a counter-suit.
The jury awarded Depp โ who denied abusing Heard โ $15 million (ยฃ12 million) in compensatory and punitive damages. Heard prevailed on one of three counter-claims against Depp and received $2 million in compensatory damages.

Amazon’s New Robot Vulcan Outperforms Humans In Warehouse Tasks
Amazon has unveiled a new robotic system called Vulcan at an event in Dortmund, Germany, describing it as "its first robotic system with a genuine sense of touchโdesigned to transform how robots interact with the physical world." Vulcan's primary purpose is warehouse operations, specifically stowing and picking items within Amazon's mobile robotic inventory system. The technology is detailed in two upcoming papers in IEEE Transactions on Robotics. Significant progress has been made since initial development, particularly in stowing operations. According to Aaron Parness, director of applied science at Amazon Robotics, the stowing robots have improved speed and reliability over more than 500,000 operational warehouse stows, reaching the point where the average robot now slightly outpaces the average human stower. The stowing process at Amazon involves placing products into mobile robotic pods containing fabric cubbies (bins) with elastic bands across the […]
Apple Claims Safari Use Drops First Time In 20 Years As ChatGPT Threatens Google Search
The growing influence of generative AI on traditional search engines was highlighted when Apple's senior vice president of services reported that Safari web browsing decreased for the first time in two decades, attributing this decline to users shifting to large language models (LLMs). Google contested these assertions, stating its search engine continues "to see overall query growth." However, emerging data suggests ChatGPT is making inroads in online shopping behavior. A survey by Datos revealed that between late October and mid-January, Amazon.com was the most frequently visited domain referred from ChatGPT's search function, accounting for 9.13% of all traffic. E-commerce domains collectively received 12.65% of traffic, falling behind news (21.42%) and academic (17.81%) domains. The rising trend of AI-assisted shopping is transforming marketing strategies. While traditional marketing has centered on search engine optimization (SEO) techniques to improve visibility in Google resultsโfocusing […]

Trump Threatens Military Strike As US Iran Nuclear Talks Resume In Secret Oman Meeting
A fourth round of discussions between the United States and Iran regarding Tehran's nuclear program has concluded in Oman, with both parties agreeing to continue negotiations. US Middle East Envoy Steve Witkoff characterized the Muscat talks as encouraging, while Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi described them as "difficult but useful." The United States maintains that Iran must abandon its uranium enrichment to prevent nuclear weapons development, though Tehran consistently denies having such intentions. On Sunday, Iran again emphasized it would not relinquish its enrichment program. Former President Donald Trump withdrew from a previous nuclear agreement between Iran and five world powers in 2018. He has recently warned of potential military action against Iranian nuclear facilities should the current negotiations, which began in April, fail to produce results. Prior to the Muscat meeting, two negotiation rounds were held in the Omani […]
Trump Strikes Ceasefire Deal While Houthis Pledge Continued Attacks Against Israel
Yemen's Houthi chief negotiator, Mohammed Abdulsalam, has clarified that their ceasefire agreement with the United States excludes operations against Israel. Abdulsalam told Reuters on Wednesday that attacking Israel was not included "in any way, shape or form" in the Oman-mediated deal. This announcement came shortly after Israeli warplanes struck Yemen's Sanaa airport, causing approximately $500 million in damage according to airport director Khaled al-Shaief. The ceasefire was announced Tuesday by US President Donald Trump, who declared that attacks on Yemen would cease immediately after the Houthis agreed to stop targeting vessels in the Red Sea. Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi confirmed the agreement, stating that "following recent discussions and contacts... with the aim of de-escalation, efforts have resulted in a ceasefire agreement between the two sides." The deal specifies that "neither side will target the other... ensuring freedom of navigation […]
