The post comes just three days after Amber revealed her mother Paige Heard had died.
Sharing vintage photos of the two on Sunday, she told Instagram followers: ‘I am heartbroken and devastated beyond belief at the loss of my mom, Paige Heard.’
‘She left us too early, clasping onto the memory of her beautiful, gentle soul. She will be missed from the very depths of our hearts forever.
Final photo: Her latest Instagram shot of her mother, which also included her younger sister Whitney, was a tribute in March for International Women’s Day
‘Her unflinching, open heart made her the most beautiful woman I had ever known. It’s hard to imagine and even more difficult to say but I feel truly lucky to have been her daughter and been given the gift of having the light she shone on everyone, fall on me for nearly 34 years.
‘This has been an unbelievably painful time but in that, I am reminded of what survives us all, love. The kindness, support and generosity my sister Whit and I have received from friends and family has been utterly soul-saving.’
Amber’s post included a sweet throwback photo of herself as a child, while her mother held her. The actress’s father David Heard could also be seen in the background.
She also posted a more recent black and white photo in which Paige hugged a fresh-faced Amber.
Paige was occasionally featured on Amber’s Instagram, and she made her most recent appearance on March 8 when Amber posted a raucous photo of her mother, who worked as an internet researcher, and her sister Whitney in honor of International Women’s Day.
