For a long time, George Clooney was an eligible Hollywood bachelor. In addition, he considered himself a supporter of the childfree movement. That is, the actor deliberately did not want to have children. Everything changed when George met his current girlfriend, lawyer Amal Alamuddin. He not only said goodbye to single life, but also changed his position regarding children. And not in vain, because you can already be proud of your heirs. The children of George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin, 5-year-old Alexander and Ella, are growing up very talented and in some ways they have already surpassed the adults.
Children of George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin: what the guys managed to prove themselves in
Let us remember that marriage with Amal Alamuddin is not the first for George Clooney. In the 80s he was already married. But in his marriage to actress Talia Balsam, Clooney never had children. However, George did not want this. He always laughed off journalists’ questions about children and said that not having children was for the best for him , because George did not have genes that would be worth copying.
After breaking up with Talia, George signed up to be a bachelor for a long time. The actor had 20 years to rethink everything. And he really did it. Indeed, in 2013, when Amal Alamuddin appeared in George’s life , he was no longer against becoming a family man and babysitting children. Finally, George met the very woman with whom he would like to not only wake up in the morning, but even change the babies’ diapers.
So, in 2017, the couple had twins Alexander and Ella . And George Clooney turned from a brutal macho into an affectionate and caring daddy. George and Amal are the kind of parents who do their best to protect their children from publicity. It’s almost impossible to see Clooney’s children, but sometimes the actor talks about them.
Ella and Alexander, at five, surpassed the adults in some aspects. For example, in learning languages. Now the guys speak three languages . In an interview, George emphasized this, adding that he himself is still working on his English. Clooney considers his son and daughter incredibly talented, but he and Amal do not force their children into geniuses. Ella and Alexander choose their own activities to their liking, and George notes that in the future he will give his children complete freedom in choosing a profession.
“They can do whatever they want. I’m sure that they are already a little smarter than me, so they can achieve a lot ,” says George Clooney about his children.
George and Amal are not robbing their son and daughter of their childhood
Parents are not trying to raise Ella and Alexander into obedient robots. They are for children to have time to experience all the delights of their young age. The Clooney family loves practical jokes . So, when the children were only three years old, they and their dad had already learned how to perform their signature trick.
The prank required diapers, chocolate paste and passers-by , who did not even suspect that they had become the heroes of the Clooney family performance. The paste was spread on the diaper, and the children happily shook it in front of passers-by. And when they stopped to see what would happen next and what the father would do, the children began to lick the brown chocolate paste from the diaper. Passers-by were shocked, and George and the children had as much fun as they could.
Children are an inspiration for an actor. George not only raises children, but also learns a lot from them. And that’s great. We are sure that with this approach to their children, George and Amal will grow up smart and confident heirs who have their own opinions.
