In June 2017, George and Amal Clooney became parents to twins, Ella and Alexander. The children turned 3 years old this year and recently the 59-year-old actor told about the moment when he learned that he would become the father of not one, but two children.

"We had never talked about having children, until one day we said: What do you think?" he said in an interview with CBS This Morning where he promoted his film on Netflix, "The Midnight Sky".

"We went to the doctor and they told me I was going to have a boy. I said it was fantastic. Then he told me it was another child. Suddenly, there were two. It’s hard to make me not talk, but I stood there for 10 minutes just looking at a piece of paper and saying, ‘What? Two? '. "

Clooney said that at the beginning of their relationship, he and Amal did not talk about marriage.

"We never talked about marriage when we were dating. I asked him out of nowhere. It took me a while to get an answer. I stayed on my knees for 20 minutes. I finally said, 'Listen, I'll get the bones of the place.' "

But still Clooney is pretty happy with the way things turned out regarding his relationship with Amal, a human rights lawyer who is also his partner in philanthropy matters. The actor said that his life has become better since starting a family.

"There is no doubt that having Amal in my life changed everything for me. It was the first time that everything she did and everything related to her was infinitely more important to me than anything else. It's fulfilling and something I never expected. "
