George Clooney is still insisting he and wife Amal Clooney have \u201cnever\u201d argued<\/a> in more than a decade of marriage.<\/p>\n

Three years after making the wild claim on \u201cCBS Mornings,\u201d the actor doubled down in a Los Angeles Time interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When the journalist said George\u2019s statement was \u201chard to believe\u201d after 11 years as husband and wife, the Oscar winner argued his case.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was 52,\u201d the \u201cOcean\u2019s Eleven\u201d star explained. \u201cThere\u2019s a reason why insurance rates when you\u2019re 16 to 25 are off the charts. It\u2019s aggression. <\/p>\n

\u201cI had no intention of getting married again,\u201d he continued, referencing his first marriage to Talia Balsam from 1989 to 1993, \u201cbut I fell madly in love with the person who changed that.\u201d<\/p>\n

George, who is the father of 8-year-old twins<\/a> Ella and Alexander, noted that he also \u201cdidn\u2019t want to have kids\u201d but reconsidered when he met Amal.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m much more secure, and I am also less in the mood to win arguments,\u201d he told the outlet. \u201cWhen you\u2019re young, you\u2019re trying to win everything.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Golden Globe winner said he is \u201cnot conceding\u201d and it\u2019s \u201ctrue\u201d that he and Amal don\u2019t fight.<\/p>\n

\u201cNice try,\u201d Clooney told the reporter. \u201cYou\u2019re going to get me in trouble with my wife.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first time George made headlines for the claim in 2022, Amal said their nonexistent arguing was \u201cmaddening\u201d for her loved ones.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have a cousin, actually, every time we see him he\u2019s like, his first question is, \u2018So have you had an argument yet?\u2019 before he says \u2018hello,’\u201d the human rights attorney said at the time.<\/p>\n

Travis Kelce confronted George over the confession on a \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast episode last month.<\/p>\n

George denied \u201clying\u201d \u2014 and then turned the question back to the Kansas City Chiefs player, who is engaged to Taylor Swift<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s only been two and a half years, and you\u2019re right,\u201d the athlete, 36, quipped. \u201cI\u2019ve never got in an argument<\/a>. Never once.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kylie Kelce, in turn, called out her brother-in-law<\/a> in a subsequent episode over what she believed to be was a \u201csarcastic \u2026 joke,\u201d but Travis doubled down.<\/p>\n

\u201cMe and Tay, we definitely don\u2019t fight,\u201d he told listeners.<\/p>\n

Travis and the pop star, 36, have been together<\/a> since the summer of 2023.<\/p>\n

George, for his part, started dating Amal in 2013 and popped the question<\/a> the following year, walking down the aisle<\/a> in a 2014 Italy wedding.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"George Clooney is still insisting he and wife Amal Clooney have \u201cnever\u201d argued in more than a decade…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":360798,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[50844,6491,9566,15666,2972,2755,96,25199,2839,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-360797","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-amal-clooney","tag-celebrities","tag-celebrity-couples","tag-celebrity-interviews","tag-celebrity-marriages","tag-celebrity-news","tag-entertainment","tag-george-clooney","tag-movies","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/360797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=360797"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/360797\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/360798"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=360797"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=360797"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=360797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
