George Clooney has revealed how his twins with wife Amal changed his life and reveals that he has no plans to retire.
The Hollywood star, 62, shares twins Alexander and Ella, six, with the ‘homely’ human rights lawyer, 45, whom he married in 2014.
George most recently directed biographical drama The Boys in the Boat and was interviewed on Wednesday’s This Morning alongside Joel Edgerton, the star of the film.
The actor and director joked that life with his twins is like ‘two against one’. He explained: ‘I actually don’t know if I’ll be directing much anymore because it takes so much time and I have six year old twins!’
‘Is it like two against one? It is! It’s tricky, my kids speak fluent Italian and fluent French.. And you know who doesn’t speak any of that! [gestures to himself] so it’s a disaster!’

George and Joel, 49, who has twins of his own, were asked if their children had a secret language, with George quipping, ‘No, that’s Italian!’
Moving on to discuss the film, which follows the University of Washington rowing team, and their quest to compete in the 1936 Summer Olympics, George admitted: ‘Directing on water is tricky.
‘I did Perfect Storm so trust me I know about water.’ The Perfect Storm is a 2000 sea disaster film which George acted in, but did not direct. Mark Wahlberg also starred.
George continued: ‘We knew it was going to be tricky and rowing is physically one of the hardest things to do.’
The Boys in the Boat underperformed at the box office, failing to make back its $40 million budget when it was released in the US in December.
But Joel sang George’s praises, saying: ‘He is fantastic. I kept looking at him thinking: “You should be in front of the camera, for a start”, and then the fact that he wasn’t meant he cared so much about the story.’
When asked if it was true that he was thinking of stepping away from acting, George declared: ‘I’m acting more now – I’ve just done a movie with pretty boy Brad Pitt.’

In January, George and Amal’s £12m Berkshire mansion was flooded.
The disaster came after reports that the two hadn’t lived in the property in years, instead opting to split their time between the US and Italy.
George was a perpetual bachelor before he settled down with Amal, who met through a mutual friend in April 2013.
They legally married in Venice’s city hall following a star-studded wedding ceremony two days prior, which was also in Venice.
