Amal and George Clooney have the strangest way of raising their children

Despite their great wealth, the twins follow these rules

The celebrity couple rarely reveal details about their private lives, but they are open about their wise approach to raising children.

How much George Clooney knows that he appreciates his marriage with Amal is proven by his confession in which he says that life rewarded him with a good marriage because of everything he has done in life.


In addition to being gentle with each other, Amal and George Clooney are also exemplary parents.

Before they met, they had no plans to have children at all. Amal was building a successful career as a human rights lawyer, while George had numerous relationships with some of the most beautiful women in Hollywood, such as Stacey Keibler and Renee Zellweger and - he had no intention of becoming father of the year. But everything changed when they met, Telegraph reports.

"We were filled with happiness, both of us, but we felt we had to share it. It would be selfish of us to keep our happiness to ourselves," Clooney commented on their decision to become parents.

At the time of the birth of the twins, the actor was 56 years old and his wife was 39 years old, while the couple was preparing for new roles as they immediately realized how much responsibility fell on their shoulders. George admits that he was haunted by the thought "that this will not break!"

Despite her celebrity status and financial wealth, Amal decided to fully take on all the responsibilities of motherhood and - she is content with the role of taking care of her son Alexander and daughter Ella without any help.

Even when she returned to work, the couple did not hire full-time help. The nanny comes to the Clooney family only four times a week, the rest of the time the parents take care of their children themselves.

"I admire my wife, she sleeps for about two hours between feedings and the love they return to her is a beautiful sight," the satisfied actor once said.

George and Amal are used to supporting each other in everything and continued to do so with the arrival of children.

Sharing parental responsibilities helped the couple balance work and family life. The actor could never have imagined that at any moment in his life the main task would be changing diapers. But fate is unpredictable and, according to his wife, he excelled in this endeavor.

Another characteristic of this family is that their children have started learning several languages ​​from an early age. The passion for languages ​​comes from their mother and George always jokes when asked about it:

“I'm from Kentucky, English is my second language. Amal, on the other hand, was born in Lebanon. When she was two years old, her family moved to England. He speaks English, French and Arabic fluently."

During a TV appearance, the actor showed that their children now speak three languages. In addition to English and French, they are learning Italian, which neither Clooney nor his wife knows. This allows the twins to keep their secrets from their parents.

Clooney's other rule is that, even though the two are extremely busy, they shouldn't be apart for too long. If work forces them to do so, Amal and George are constantly in touch via video calls. So, even though their work schedule is busy, the family still spends a lot of time together.

While some celebrity parents are happy to share photos of their kids growing up on social media, the Clooneys have gone out of their way to avoid it. The famous actor and the beautiful lawyer do not have their pages on social networks. In addition, they strongly oppose any outside interference in the lives of their twins - when the paparazzi climbed the wall of their house to take some photos of the babies, Clooney reported them to the court and demanded that they be punished by law .

Spouses openly appealed to journalists not to publish photos of their children. They want to enable Alexander and Ela to lead a normal life, just like other children. They even chose quite common names for the twins, to add some "normalcy" to the twins' already unusual lives.

The well-known couple knows from their own experience how this "normality" can sometimes be lacking. George was raised by a beauty queen and TV presenter, while Amal was also lucky to be born into a famous family – her father comes from a long line of respected ancestry. That is why they decided to raise their children differently.

“The challenge is to remind kids who have famous parents and before that they should also have empathy for people who are not as fortunate as they are. Amal's job and mine is to teach that to our kids, it's very important," Clooney explained.

Children changed Clooney's life.

George believes that for some people having a child is their purpose in life, that they feel incomplete if they are not parents.

That was not the case with him. He did not mourn being alone, without an heir, until he met Amal. He wanted to have children with her.

“It gave me a sense of belonging, a sense of home and unconditional love – all the things I had hoped to have besides a really good career and a dog. I realized that this is much more than that," says the actor.
