George Clooney gets French citizenship amid fears of raising children in LA.

Clooney, wife Amal and eight-year-old twins Ella and Alexander moved to their sprawling $11 million wine estate in Provence, France, to escape the “culture of Hollywood.”

The Ocean’s Eleven star previously shared Esquire he worried about raising his children in Los Angeles: “I felt like they would never get a fair chance in life.” (In) France – they don’t care about fame.

“I don’t want them to worry about paparazzi. I don’t want them to be compared to someone else’s famous kids.”

In addition to his family home in France, the Clooneys also own an estate in England, a villa on Lake Como in Italy and another property near his family in Kentucky — all in an effort, he said, to give his children a normal childhood.

“We are very lucky,” the star said of life on the farm. “A lot of my life growing up was on a farm, and as a kid I hated the whole idea of ​​it. But now for them it’s like they’re not on their iPads, you know? They eat with adults and have to take their dishes with them. They have a much better life.”

In addition to being above Hollywood, the actor has been very vocal about his distaste for President Trump after he was re-elected in November 2024.
