George Clooney says his kids have a 'much better life' living in France than in LA

"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's like - they're 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,"

"I don't want them to be walking around worried about paparazzi. I don't want them being compared to somebody else's famous kids,"

"The only thing I feel lucky about is that I'm so much older that the idea that my son would be compared to me is pretty unlikely, because by the time he actually will have done anything, I'm gonna be gumming my bread,"

George Clooney and his wife Amal raise their twins, Alexander and Ella, on a farm in France. The children spend less time on screens, join adults for dinner, and help with tasks like clearing dishes. The farm environment provides separation from Los Angeles and the celebrity-focused culture. The family chose France to limit paparazzi attention and avoid comparisons to other famous children. Amal Clooney's professional work factors into the family's privacy concerns. The twins, born in 2017, grow up in a setting intended to offer more normalcy and reduced public scrutiny.
