- George Clooney has spoken out about the drama surrounding Meghan Markle following the publication of a private letter from her father.
- The actor also addressed rumors that he is going to be the royal baby's godfather.
- Fun fact: George is close friends with Meghan and Prince Harry, and he and Amal were guests at the royal wedding, where the above ^ photo was taken.
Another day, another one of Meghan Markle's friends speaking out about royal drama. And this time said friend isn't anonymous: It's casually George Clooney, no bigs!
According to multiple outlets including People and Hello, George was chilling at a press panel in Los Angeles when he started talking about the Duchess.
"I do want to say, I just saw this piece," he reportedly mused. "They're just chasing Meghan Markle everywhere, she's been pursued and vilified. She's a woman who is seven months pregnant and she is being pursued and vilified and chased in the same way that Diana was, and it's history repeating itself."
He continued with, "And we've seen how that ends. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to see that. You're taking a letter from a daughter to a father and broadcasting it everywhere. She's getting a raw deal there, it's irresponsible. I'm sort of surprised by that."
George is referencing Thomas Markle's recent publication of a private letter that Meghan sent asking him to stop talking to the press so they could repair their relationship. But on a lighter note, George chatted about rumors that he's going to be godfather to the royal baby, saying, "Oh yes, I’ll be godfather of the royals apparently. No! I’m a father of twins, I have enough sh*t to deal with—literally!"
Okay, George!
