Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Jennifer Lopez gave birth to a boy and a girl early today after one of pop music's most closely-watched pregnancies.

The babies were born at 12.45am local time (5.45am UK time) on Long Island, New York State.

Lopez, 39, and husband Marc Anthony, 38, married in 2004. The twins are her first children, and his third and fourth.

Lopez's publicist Simon Fields said: "Jennifer and Marc are delighted, thrilled and over the moon."

Lopez confirmed her pregnancy at a Miami concert in November, ending months of speculation.

Her father, David Lopez, told a TV station earlier this month that she was expecting twins.
