The Ocean\u2019s Eleven star married human rights lawyer Amal Clooney in 2014. In 2017, the couple welcomed their twins, Alexander and Ella.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Despite gaining fame from movies like Gravity and The Descendants, the 64-year-old actor spoke about why he wants to keep his kids away from the L.A. life, and why he worries they wouldn\u2019t have a fair chance growing up.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">George Clooney on raising kids outside Hollywood culture<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">George Clooney recently talked about his family. He shared that he drives a van for carpool and often has his kids singing along to Hamilton in the back. In an interview with <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esquire.com\/entertainment\/movies\/a68136276\/george-clooney-jay-kelly-interview-2025\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Esquire;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Esquire<\/a> earlier this week, the Wolfs star, who now lives on a farm in France with his family, talked about raising his kids away from Hollywood.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He explained that living on a farm gives his kids a normal childhood, away from screens and celebrity culture. \u201cYeah, we\u2019re very lucky. You know, we live on a farm in France. A good portion 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\u2019s like\u2014they\u2019re not on their iPads, you know? They have dinner with grown-ups and have to take their dishes in. They have a much better life,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Clooney further explained that he worried about raising them in Los Angeles. \u201cI was worried about raising our kids in L. A., in the culture of Hollywood. I felt like they were never going to get a fair shake at life. France\u2014they kind of don\u2019t give a shit about fame. I don\u2019t want them to be walking around worried about paparazzi. I don\u2019t want them being compared to somebody else\u2019s famous kids.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Fans eager to see George Clooney on screen will get to watch him later this year. He will feature in a comedy-drama alongside Adam Sandler called Jay Kelly, which hits select theaters on November 14 and will stream worldwide on Netflix from December 5.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Originally reported by Ojas Kulkarni on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.comingsoon.net\/pop-culture\/news\/2039682-george-clooney-hollywood-culture-raising-kids\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:ComingSoon;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">ComingSoon<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\/news\/1671113-george-clooney-hollywood-culture-raising-kids\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:George Clooney on Why He Was \u2018Worried\u2019 About Raising Kids in Hollywood;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">George Clooney on Why He Was \u2018Worried\u2019 About Raising Kids in Hollywood<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Mandatory;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>George Clooney, who is set to appear in Noah Baumbach\u2019s Jay Kelly, recently revealed why he wants to keep his kids away from Hollywood culture.
