To wonder why the Press aren't banging on about the age difference between George and Amal?

looking at these pictures he could be her dad but are the Press banging on about the 16 year age difference? Er no. You don't think it's because he's a man, do you? If a woman of 53 was marrying a 36 year old man, she'd be labelled a cougar and he'd be a toyboy but Amal isn't being called a toy girl!

He was horrid. He must have deliberately set out to be rude to every single person that he passed that day - it was actually quite some feat.

squoosh · 18/09/2014 15:15

Awwwww I always thought he seemed lovely! But now he's a MASSIVE COCK and horrid??

Oh well, in that case I'm glad he's a short arse and that it obviously plays on his mind.

myusernameis · 18/09/2014 15:18

I don't think the age gap Is that big but agree it would have been mentioned to death had she been the older one.

What I found annoying about that article is that he is refered to as an actor in one of the first paragraphs whereas the fact she is a lawyer isn't mentioned until a lot further down.. I had to really hunt for it.

Accessorising with an oversized pair of gold dangly earrings and wearing her hair in gorgeous soft curls over one shoulder, the lawyer looked perfectly in place on the red carpet.... So you can be a smart, successful woman AND look good.. Well I never...

I read that as "He managed to be both miniature, and has a MASSIVE COCK, thought, steady on!! Shock

IScreamForIceCream · 18/09/2014 15:53

Chicken Shock

But supposedly he has. I don't know why I think this though. Was it something that Rupert Everett said?

daisychain01 · 18/09/2014 15:54

I though this thread was about Prince George before I opened it, i need to seriously get a grip.

Makes far more sense to be George Galloway at the moment Dinah!

Rosa · 18/09/2014 15:58

Am I the only one to think that Amal well looks a bit masculine ?? maybe its the chin but when I see pics I see male features with make up ....

ChickenSoupForTheSoul · 18/09/2014 16:00

I guess that's a point in his favour then?

I find his voice like warm honey, it does something very strange to me Blush

Rosa · 18/09/2014 16:03

Oh and if they are getting married in Venice then I am going away for the weekend ....

GatoradeMeBitch · 18/09/2014 16:17

Wow, he looks very old and dusty in those pics. Time flies Sad

Onedropoflove · 18/09/2014 18:17

I read it he has a large cock as well. Most short men have in my experience Blush. Now I'm starting to wonder what our george us like in the sack at 53 or whatever he is... Which means it's time for me to go to work......

Welshwabbit · 18/09/2014 18:42

I met Tom Hollander at my husband's church. I think he's friends with the vicar, who's a consultant on Rev. We did the peace together. He was very pleasant.

I am a barrister and I know people who work with Amal.

Do I win the thread?

IScreamForIceCream · 18/09/2014 19:29

No, Welsh you do not.

But if you dish the dirt, you just might...

limitedperiodonly · 18/09/2014 20:19

Tom Hollander may be just pretending to be friends with the vicar for work reasons, Like the rest of us who want to get our kids into decent schools.

I look up to my priest. I'm 5ft 4ins too...

squoosh · 18/09/2014 20:20

I'm going to call him Tom Thumb Up His Own Bum from now on.

mrsjavierbardem · 18/09/2014 20:28

Tom Hollander has a MASSIVE COCK?

mrsjavierbardem · 18/09/2014 20:30

I heard from a friend, so it is was reported to me that Michael Parkinson was the rudest rudest rudest rudest rudest rudest man she had ever met.

Allegedly.

AbbieHoffmansAfro · 18/09/2014 22:03

Seen this?
Puts the whole thing in perspective quite nicely. Who's the catch here, after all?

Alisvolatpropiis · 18/09/2014 22:08

To be honest I'm not sure how Tom Hollander not reacting well to a very personal comment makes him a tosser Confused.

Amal is arguably far more successful than George. As she has a real job, rather than a very well paid hobby. I think they are well matched.

MrsMindful · 18/09/2014 22:46

I did have a vague picture in my mind of Tom Hollander, having seen 3 POC movies - 3rd one was shit IMO - anyway I don't like him, he is creepy looking and prob doesn't have a massive cock! - btw getting back to lovely George and Amal Now mag have printed a pic where she looks preg and they are suggesting that's why he's getting hitched again at last?!

Onedropoflove · 19/09/2014 00:05

I'm not convinced they are at it.

MarthasVineyard · 19/09/2014 04:36
at 4.10 mins. Bet she was relieved to hear that Ma Clooney considers her to be George's intellectual equal!
TheRealAmandaClarke · 19/09/2014 07:16

Oh. Are we saying TH is a "massive cock"?
Because Ill confess, I thought you meant he has a massive cock.

FamiliesShareGerms · 19/09/2014 07:23

Now this is an age gap

Cariad007 · 19/09/2014 07:46

I love th Chinese whispers on this thread. TH is massive cock becomes TH has massive cock! Before you know it the Mail will be featuring him in a story about short men with giant appendages...
