Congratulations are in order for Amber Heard, who is expecting her second baby.
The Aquaman actress, 38, is already a mother to a three-and-a-half-year-old daughter, Oonagh Paige, who will soon become a big sister.
News of the pregnancy was revealed by Amber’s representative, who told People: “It is still quite early in the pregnancy, so you will appreciate that we do not want to go into much detail at this stage.
“Suffice to say that Amber is delighted both for herself and Oonagh Paige.”
Amber welcomed Oonagh on April 8, 2021, and shared the news of her daughter’s birth three months after she was born.
She told her followers on Instagram that she had “decided I wanted to have a child” four years prior and “wanted to do it on my own terms”.
Amber added at the time: “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.
“I hope we arrive at a point in which it’s normalized to not want a ring in order to have a crib.”
Amber has kept her followers updated with sporadic posts about Oonagh, keeping her daughter largely out of the limelight and calling herself “just the mom and the dad”.
The actress had previously been married to Pirates of the Caribbean star Johnny Depp, however, their relationship ended with a much-publicized court case.
Johnny had sued Amber for defamation in a live-streamed trial in Virginia over the summer of 2022, with the jury deciding in his favor.
The case had come about after Amber had written an article about being the victim of abuse, and though she hadn’t named her ex specifically, Johnny’s camp had argued it was implied that her claims were about him.
Following the contentious legal battle, Amber later moved overseas to Madrid, Spain, where she now lives a quieter life outside of Hollywood.

After the trial, she told NBC News’s Savannah Guthrie in June 2022 that she was looking forward to focusing on her family, adding: “I get to be a mom, like, full time, you know? Where I’m not having to juggle calls with lawyers.”
Sources told the outlet that her decision to move to Spain was because she found the scrutiny around the trial “overwhelming”, explaining: “The trial was beyond stressful, and she wanted to start fresh.”
They added that Amber “has new energy and is focused on things that she loves,” while another source commented: “She’s independent and smart. She needs to heal.”
Congratulations to Amber!
