George Clooney and Amal Clooney are proud parents of two, and in a recent interview, George revealed that they had to end the “dangerous” activities they had been doing for years beforehand.

For those that don’t know, George and Amal Alamuddin, a prominent human rights lawyer, met back in 2013 through a mutual friend, and by the following year, they got married! They later welcomed twins, Ella and Alexander, on June 6, 2017, who are now 8. And since then, they’ve opted out of many parts of their old lives.

In a recent interview with People, George said to the outlet, “You can’t just go swinging as you used to. Amal and I both had to change our goals on where we would go. I used to enjoy going to places that were dangerous.”

Amal Clooney, George Clooney at The 78th Annual Tony Awards held at Radio City Music Hall on June 08, 2025 in New York, New York.

He added that he “liked going into the Nuba Mountains and Darfur and Abyei, and there [were] war zones. And I found it exhilarating.”

As for Amal, he said, “And Amal was in a bunker in Beirut for two years doing the court cases. And we had to make decisions not to do that once we had kids. You had to change sort of what the rules were.”

This checks out since their vacations are typically in European countries, spent either on scenic walks or star-studded dinners. Many say parenting changes you, and for the Clooneys, it seems they’ve said goodbye to their “dangerous” sides for good!

These celebrity parents are on double duty!
