While promoting his Broadway debut Good Night, and Good Luck on CBS Mornings, the 63-year-old actor gushed about his home life, calling it a “really great time in life.” Speaking with Gayle King, Clooney praised the couple’s 7-year-old twins, Alexander and Ella, noting, “They’re really curious and funny. Every parent thinks their kids are great — our kids are funny and make us laugh.”
He then doubled down on a surprising claim he made to King in a previous interview: that he and Amal, 47, have never argued.
George Clooney says he and Amal Clooney have never had an argument — even after nearly a decade of marriage.
“I remember we were here with you once before, and I remember we said we’d never had an argument. We still haven’t,” the actor said. “We’re trying to find something to fight about!”
“I feel so extraordinarily lucky to have met this incredible woman,” George said. “I feel as if I hit the jackpot. There isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t think I’m the luckiest man in the world. So it’s great.”
When he and Amal appeared on CBS Mornings in September 2022, George described their marriage as effortlessly strong, saying, “It’s been easy with Amal — by far the easiest thing in our lives. We’ve never had an argument.”
Amal said “It’s maddening to some of our friends. I have a cousin, actually, every time we see him he’s like, his first question is, ‘So have you had an argument yet?’ before he says hello.”
