I\u2019ve had my career in many ways and you know things were winding down in a way, so I get to be home with my kids a lot and it\u2019s fun. I\u2019m still young enough that I can run around with them. That\u2019s going away quickly, but I can still do it right now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Clooneys recently celebrated their 11th wedding anniversary, and the actor revealed how they marked the occasion sharing, &#8220;We had a nice dinner night before last.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As to what the next 11 years will look like for the couple, the &#8220;ER&#8221; alum replied, &#8220;Mostly be me gumming bread because I\u2019m 64, so I\u2019ll be 75.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>George also strives to live a &#8220;really full life&#8221;, instead of worrying about potential problems.<\/p>\n<p>The movie star told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.today.com\/popculture\/george-clooney-covers-aarp-magazine-talks-kids-aging-t207441\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"https:\/\/www.today.com\/popculture\/george-clooney-covers-aarp-magazine-talks-kids-aging-t207441\" class=\"themeColorForLinks\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">AARP<\/a>, &#8220;There\u2019s no rhyme or reason for who gets to age and who doesn\u2019t. So you should live as if you\u2019re not going to get to. And then, if you wake up one day and you\u2019re old, you\u2019ve lived a really full life.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"George Clooney is no longer in a &#8220;rush to succeed&#8221; and is ready to wind down with his&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":57640,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[6779,2046,156,2109,15183,4223,636,409,111,139,69,1850,48068],"class_list":["post-57639","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-aging","tag-career","tag-entertainment","tag-family","tag-george-clooney","tag-hollywood","tag-marriage","tag-movies","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-twins","tag-winding-down"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57639","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57639"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57639\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57640"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
