The stunning reason why so many are convinced that Elon Musk is the father of Amber Heard’s surprise new baby twins

Social media erupted this week after actress Amber Heard revealed the unexpected arrival of her twin babies — and it didn’t take long before internet sleuths and celebrity watchers began pointing fingers toward one man in particular: billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk.
Actress Amber Heard, whose court showdown with ex-husband Johnny Depp made lurid headlines around the world, has announced the arrival of twins, sharing a precious image of the tiny feet of infants Ocean and Agnes.
The stunning revelation came via an Instagram post late Sunday evening, where Heard shared a black-and-white photo of herself cradling two newborns.
The caption read simply, “My heart is full. Welcome to the world, my darlings.” With no mention of the father, the internet wasted no time in speculating — and a familiar name quickly surged to the top of trending lists: Elon Musk.
The speculation is rooted in the pair’s tumultuous relationship history. Musk and Heard were publicly linked between 2016 and 2018, a romance that flickered both on and off amid intense media scrutiny.
But recent developments, along with certain subtle clues, have reignited the theory that their connection may have run deeper — and longer — than anyone knew.
A Trail of Clues
Fueling the theory are several recent events and details fans have seized on. One, in particular, is a resurfaced report from 2021 claiming that Heard had welcomed a baby via surrogate — a claim that Musk never directly addressed but which was widely rumored to involve his genetic contribution.
Now, the announcement of twins has many drawing comparisons to Musk’s known history with multiple births. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO is the father of 11 children, including twins and triplets — some born via IVF.
The timing of Heard’s twins, combined with Musk’s open support for increasing the global birth rate, has further convinced fans that this isn’t a coincidence.
Another intriguing detail? In April 2025, Heard was spotted in Austin, Texas — home to Musk’s Tesla headquarters — during what some believe were her final stages of pregnancy or early stages of surrogacy.
Adding fuel to the fire, Musk posted a cryptic tweet just days before Heard’s announcement: “The future is shaped by those who raise it.”
Silence from the Stars
As the rumor mill spins, both Heard and Musk have remained publicly silent. Representatives for both parties declined to comment on the paternity speculation.
However, sources close to the actress reportedly told Page Six that Heard is “not ready to reveal details about the children’s paternity” and wishes to raise them “privately and peacefully.”
Still, the internet isn’t convinced that this is the last we’ll hear of the story. Hashtags like #ElonHeardTwins and #BabyMuskMystery have dominated X (formerly Twitter), with some calling for either party to confirm or deny the rumors.
A Familiar Pattern?
This wouldn’t be the first time Musk has faced public paternity speculation. In 2022, it was revealed that he had fathered twins with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis — also through surrogacy and without prior public knowledge.
Whether or not the theories about Heard’s twins are true, one thing is certain: the intrigue surrounding Musk and Heard continues to captivate the public imagination — and this latest twist only deepens the mystery.
As fans and critics wait for confirmation, the question remains: Are these surprise babies just the latest chapter in one of Hollywood’s most enigmatic stories — or the beginning of a shocking new one?
