"They're just really nice, fun, kind people, they're a very loving couple, and they're going to be great parents." Speaking about his twins, Clooney said, "They're really funny and really smart."
"We've decided because we spend a lot of time in Italy and they're going to spend a lot of time growing up there, that Italian is going to be one of the languages they learn," he explained.
"Already they're saying their ABCs in Italian and in English." "And they can count from one to 20 in Italian too, which I can't do! They've definitely got my wife's genes in the brain department because she's the smart one in the family."
The actor admitted that his new family life has shifted both his and Amal's priorities. "She's as tough as nails and she's going to keep doing what she believes is the right thing to do," Clooney said.
"We talk all the time about which clients she gets called about, whether she takes them on or what cases would be too dangerous," Clooney revealed.
"We've made certain pacts about how she's going to stop going to certain places, and I said I'm going to stop going to war zones where it's dangerous to be," he added.
