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??

Is he gay in the way Hugh Jackman is gay, ie he was married to his ‘beard’ for years, then left her…for another woman. So most likely not gay at all.

This was a strange one, something must have triggered it as its been very out that he's gay.

Neil Patrick Harris. Matt Bomer. Wentworth Miller. Sean Hayes. Luke Evans.

This is different, JB is only just making it, and has a niche in that both sexes think hes fab. GC made his name being a suave sex symbol

It very well could be that they each have a busy and successful life, so they are genuinely happy together.

I don't know the details of their life, but I know enough couples with very successful and interesting individuals, busy with work who are best friends because they have things to talk about, they are friends, and they don't spend their life like so many posters on here, bickering about doing "bedtime" together or the food shop.

What kills many couple is the boredom and the petty details of mundane life. How can you keep the sparks between 2 people when they argue about the direction of the toilet paper or the other one farts in bed?

This.

They seem to have a most fabulous life.

Amal Clooney is intelligent, successful and beautiful. Why on earth would someone expose themselves to the scrutiny she must live under. If she wanted the money she could have married someone anonymous.

George Clooney is seriously punching.

I changed my name for this! But my parents live next to the Clooneys! Lovely by all accounts. And he’s not gay!

How do you know?

Charabanc · 29/08/2025 19:03

Lolling hard at people who think George needs a beard because he wants to go into politics.

When's that going to happen, then? He's 64. He would deffo be a Democrat. Why didn't he make his move in Trump 1? Why isn't he making his move in Trump 2? It's not happening, people.

OrangeSmoke · 29/08/2025 17:58

What is with this phenomenon where people are convinced that very famous people cannot be in real relationships? All these comments claiming George must be gay echo the ones on the Taylor Swift thread yesterday saying her relationship is a cover too? It's so strange that people think like this.

I imagine they have quite small lives, so comfort themselves by obsessing over others. The ones who claim beard are likely both homophobic and sexist as they clearly believe women are just tools to benefit men.

Not exactly Clooney-level A listers, are they?

The poster didn't specify A-listers – they said out and proud in Hollywood.

Get away from me, you randy grueber.

Ah, American names; don’t you just love ‘em? Reminds me of Spunk Davis, cherished by Martin Amis’ readers.

This. I thought it was well known he’s a closet gay and she was a contract wife.

Well known or just a baseless rumour that keeps doing the rounds?

I have no idea , but obviously there are posters on here who are privy to verifiable information some of us aren’t, so it would be interesting to know what that is and how they came about it.

Eyesopenwideawake · 29/08/2025 19:06

For all of you saying he's gay and using the marriage as cover so he can get into politics - newsflash; Ireland had a gay prime minister.

Also newsflash - they've been married for 11 years! When is his new career in politics going to happen, then?

Rupert Everett

Rupert Everett is on record as saying he wished he'd stayed in the closet. Because one minute he was a leading man, then when he came out, all the lead parts dried up.

Maybe a few high profile A lister leading men and women might come out, but by far the majority will stay in the closet.

None of those men are A-List hollywood blockbuster material.

Actually Wentworth Miller stated in an interview that coming out tanked his career.

I doubt she needs the attention!

My friend’s sister’s mate’s cousin’s aunt once knew someone who was told by a work colleague’s boss that a famous actor was gay, so it must be true.

He’s definitely gay. I can’t imagine him being straight

You must settle in real life for some terrible version of a man.

It's possible that he is gay and they do have a fabulous life, just an unconventional one.
