The Clooneys - is it real

Just that, they seem so deliriously in love in every picture I've seen of them.

More power to them if they are that happy, they've both hit the jackpot in so many ways.

But.. to still look so enthralled with each other after so many years??

The only plus I can see is the immense wealth..

Haha!
Which has freed her to focus on human rights cases and causes very important to her, and not need any more to accept work in order to earn a crust, I’d imagine.
Still, she adores couture, and a Jet Set lifestyle too. Can’t blame her for indulging any of that side of things. It was hardly a rags to riches tale, as she wasn’t exactly wanting before she met GC.

boundaries

on a thread where there’s 3 of us knocking chunks out each other and more waiting to join in and tie Amal up weh ropes.

Then there’s the bookies waiting in the wings for their turn.

Eventually? Isn’t he about 60? I think if that was his plan he’d have started it by now.

GC was 64 in May

Oh man. So you don’t know whether or not this is true, but hey, let’s spread it around anyway.
Even then, if the bare outline were true, and there was indeed a dreadful accident, you’re adding a deliberate overlay of homophobia to it all. Not necessarily your own, but you are certainly inviting it in.

This stuff is not worthy of MN, surely. Poking fun at slebs is a noble pursuit, but taking pleasure as poisonous rumourmongers is a bit much.

Huh. Sermon over.
Sorry, that (clearly) overstepped ‘my boundaries™️’!

Your 'boundaries' are no concern of mine, they're for you only.

Enjoy the rest of your evening.

Nope. I'm referring to the 16 year old Italian boy who was found naked on rocks at the bottom of a cliff. Kid had been out with Clooney and pals, got spooked back at the villa and jumped, allegedly. He survived but suffered life changing injuries. This was in 2013.

No idea if it's true of course but that's the story.

Right 👍. Gotcha.
Perhaps they're just really ordinary and boring...

Hmm.. They’re both beautiful talented people. Who we know nothing about.

RanyaJerodung · 29/08/2025 20:00

It just seems like such an impossibly glamorous life, doesn't it? The villa by Lake Como, the beautiful estate in England, the yachts, the parties, the film festivals...not jealous at all 😭

Two thing can simultaneously be true - they are in a normal, loving relationship which has its ups and downs, and they can turn on the smiles for big occasions like a film premiere.

If it weren't for the child care, cost of living worries and had unlimited funds I'm sure the majority of MNers could scrub up well for a film premiere! I doubt the Clooneys have been phoning around to call in baby-sitting favours!

Blondiney · 29/08/2025 19:57

Athreedoorwardrobe · 29/08/2025 19:56

Define real?
Do I think they genuinely have a relationship? Yes.
Do I also think they perform that relationship in public to sell an image? Yes.
The two things can exist at once.

This is the only sensible post on the thread, mine included lol

It's not "weirdly defensive".
A couple of wild claims were made by you. I just wondered if you had any evidence at all.
Don't be so defensive, I was only asking for enlightenment 😂!
If you made it up, fine. I was only asking for clarification
Did you just make the stuff up?
