“We never talked about marriage when we were dating, and I asked her out of the blue,” Clooney, 59, told CBS on Sunday, November 29. “[It] took her a long time to say yes. I was on my knee for, like, 20 minutes. I finally said, ‘Look, I’m gonna throw my hip out.’ We told that story to her parents, and they’re like, ‘There’s something wrong with his hip?'”

The human rights lawyer, 42, eventually accepted his proposal, and the two married in Venice, Italy, five months later.

“There is no question that having Amal in my life changed everything for me,” the Midnight Sky actor said on Sunday. “No question about it. It was the first time that everything that she did and everything about her was infinitely more important than anything about me.”

His life changed drastically again in 2017 when the couple found out they were expecting twins, Alexander and Ella.

“We never talked about having kids. And then one day we just said, ‘What do you think?’ And, you know, then we go to the doctor and you do the ultrasound and, like, ‘Hey, you got a baby boy.’ I said, ‘Baby boy, fantastic!'” the two-time Oscar winner explained. “Then they go, ‘And you got another one there.’ And I was like … I was up for one! ‘Cause, again, I’m old. All of a sudden it’s, like, two?”

The ER vet said that although it’s hard for him “not to talk,” finding out that he was having two “knucklehead” children left him speechless.

“I just stood there for, like, 10 minutes, just staring at this piece of paper going … two … silently,” the director said. “But I’m so glad they have each other, you know?”

The Money Monster star’s upcoming film drops in theaters and on Netflix on December 23, and it was completely filmed before the coronavirus pandemic caused the nation to shut down. Since then, he’s been staying home just like everyone else — something he’s not used to at all.

“It’s been a while since I did 15 loads of laundry in a day and mopped floors and all these doors over here I stained,” the producer said. “I always say I felt like my mother in 1964, because she had two kids and no help. I don’t know how she did it now. I have more sympathy for her now than ever.”

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines. That is something that the actress and activist has intentionally changed, she explained in June 2021. “It’s hard to have nothing that’s yours. And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
