Women all over the world have dreamed about what it would be like to be proposed to by George Clooney – and now the man himself has revealed exactly what that involves.
Tomorrowland star George spilled the beans to CBS News about how he had asked now-wife of eight months Amal Alamuddin to marry him.
He said: “When I asked her, we had never talked about it, so it was all — there wasn’t like a, ‘Maybe we should get married’. Literally, I dropped it on her.
“I was at my home and I queued up a playlist of some of my aunt Rosemary’s songs and I asked, and she just kept saying, ‘Oh my god’ and ‘Wow’ — completely unexpected.
“And you know, I just said — I’m 53 at the time — ‘I’ve been on my knee now for 28 minutes so I gotta get an answer out of this cause I’m gonna throw a hip out. I might not be able to stand back up’.”
The couple married in a romantic ceremony in Venice last year and George added: “I’ve got a real decision maker, a much smarter decision maker. I have someone I can talk to about anything, and someone who I care more about then I’ve cared about anybody. So it’s really nice.”
