George Clooney has been married for more than ten years now, and had two children.. but there’s one thing he and his wife have never done.
The 63-year-old actor says he and his 47-year-old wife Amal have never had an argument!
Clooney made the claim while appearing on “CBS Mornings” alongside host Gayle King, to promote his Broadway show “Good Night, and Good Luck.”Â
Sporting jet black hair for his role as legendary CBS newsman Edward R Murrow in the play, Clooney told King that he and wife Amal are “having a really great time in life.”
Recalling that he had told King in a previous interview that the pair never fight, he said, “I remember we were here with you once before, and I remember we said weâd never had an argument. We still havenât. Weâre trying to find something to fight about!”
George Clooney Says His Twins Are ‘Curious and Funny’
One thing the couple has no trouble agreeing on is how wonderful their 7-year-old twins Alexander and Ella are.
“Our kids are 7, about to be 8, which is a pretty great age. Theyâre really curious and funny. Every parent thinks their kids are great â our kids are funny and make us laugh.”
“I feel so extraordinarily lucky to have met this incredible woman,” Clooney went on to say. “I feel as if I hit the jackpot. There isnât a day that goes by where I donât think Iâm the luckiest man in the world. So itâs great.”
George Clooney Finds Success on Broadway
Clooney and his family are currently living in New York City while George stars in the Broadway play, Â âGood Night and Good Luckâ at the Winter Garden Theater.
The show is an adaptation of Clooneyâs 2005 movie by the same name. Both tell the story of legendary newsman Edward R. Murrowâs exposé of Senator Joseph McCarthy. McCarthy is the Wisconsin senator whose name spawned the word âMcCarthyismâ when he launched a campaign falsely accusing people of being Communists in the 1940âs and 50âs.
In the movie version, Clooney played Murrowâs producer Fred Friendly, deciding he didnât have âthe gravitasâ to take on the Murrow role in his 40âs. Fast forward 20 years and all of that has changed, with Clooney stepping into Murrowâs shoes on the stage to rave reviews.
New York Times critic Jesse Green wrote of his performance, “George Clooney makes Edward R. Murrow a saint of sane journalism for a world that still needs one.”
Once a Confirmed Bachelor, Clooney Is Now ‘All-In’ on Marriage
Clooney once famously bet actress Nicole Kidman $10,000 that he would remain single and childless at age 40, and won that bet. The story goes that he returned the money and offered double or nothing that he’d continue the streak to age 50. He won that bet yet again, not marrying until he was 52.
But Clooney wasn’t the only one in the relationship who thought his single status was set in stone.
Amal Clooney told Vogue in 2018 that falling in love with George “felt like the most natural thing in the world.”
“Itâs the one thing in life that I think is the biggest determinant of happiness, and itâs the thing you have the least control over,” she said of their marriage. âAre you going to meet this person? I was 35 when I met him. It wasnât obvious that it was going to happen for me. And I wasnât willing or excited about the idea of getting married or having a family in the absence of that.”
