In what has to be the most-speculated pregnancy of recent years, we FINALLY have confirmation.
Julie Chen, Amal’s close friend and host of The Talk, has revealed that, “Beyoncé is not the only superstar expecting twins.”
“Congratulations are in order for George and Amal Clooney!,” Julie added on the latest episode of the hit talk-show.
The American TV personality went on to reveal that the 39-year-old is due in June which means we have about four months to prepare ourselves!
Rumours have surrounded the couple for months, as the Lebanese-British lawyer was seen to swap her usually form-fitting style for looser fitting garments.
Most recently, the couple’s English neighbour, Joan Farnese, fuelled the baby whispers surrounding the duo with some pretty rock solid comments.
She says George all but confirmed the news when she spotted him out on a stroll near the English countryside home in Berkshire he and Amal share.
“When’s the baby due?” she cheekily asked the actor – and though he stayed silent, the grin spreading across his face said it all, before he confirmed the news with a sly wink and a nod!
During a recent outing, Amal’s loose-fitting dress looked to skim over a bump.
Amal’s baby bump was spotted as the couple attended a special Netflix screening of The White Helmets.
The twins will be the very first children for couple who have been together since 2013, and tied the knot in an intimate Venice wedding a year later.
And while Amal’s father is quoted as saying “Now it’s time for grandchildren!”, he probably hadn’t thought it’d take them 3 years.
Luckily for Mr Alamuddin, it seems now’s the time. Amal was looking bumpier than ever when she and her hubby stepped out for dinner in Barcelona to celebrate her 39th birthday last week, along with George’s parents Nick and Nina.
The human rights lawyer has also ditched her favourite red wine tipple, according to a waitress at George’s favourite pub The Bull. “They’ve always ordered red wine, but this time they had coffee, and Amal wanted decaf,” the waitress reveals. “Amal must be having pregnancy sugar cravings because she’s started eating sticky toffee pudding, which she never did before!”
While George, 55, has always sworn off fatherhood in the past, his closest friends have long suspected he was protesting too much. “He would be a great dad,” gushes good pal Julia Roberts.
Congratulations again to the soon-to-be parents!
