Parenthood suits power couple George and Amal Clooney who’ve been holed up while getting to know their pigeon pair
HE USED to be one of the most eligible bachelors in the world, a practical joker of note and a lad about town living it up with his posse of pals.
Everything he did was in the pursuit of his own pleasure and he was, by his own admission, rather self-centred.
But life is rather different these days for George Clooney (56). Gone are his days as the dashing Hollywood heart-throb – in fact, these days he barely acts at all.
His life now revolves around family and in a matter of months the silver-haired super star has done a complete 180, thanks to two tiny people called Ella and Alexander. The twins he had with wife Amal (39) are the centre of his universe – and for the first time he’s opened up about what being a father means to him.
“It’s never been part of my DNA,” he told The Hollywood Reporter magazine. “The first thing you think is, ‘I hope I don’t screw this up.’ But I’m a very good diaper guy, which I didn’t know I would be.”
The house is filled with the warm sounds of babies, he added. “You should see when my friends show up and see me change a diaper, the laughter that comes from them. I go, ‘I know, I know’. I’ve given them so much s**t for so many years I deserve every bit of it.”
Being a parent has a way of bringing you down to earth, he said. “I have to clean the barf off my tux. It used to be my barf but now it’s the twins’ barf. So it all works out.”
The award-winning actor-director revealed he and his legal eagle wife had never even discussed having kids until after they were married.
