George Clooney has come to the defence of his friend, Meghan Marrkle.

The Duchess of Sussex has been getting harsh treatment from the media since she joined the Royal family and that scrutiny has only accelerated since she married Prince Harry and announced that she was expecting their baby.

Now, her friend and Hollywood actor George Clooney has something to say about what she has endured – even comparing her treatment by the public to that of the late Princess Diana.

While promoting his upcoming Hulu series Catch-22, he said, ''They’re just chasing Meghan Markle everywhere, she’s been pursued and vilified.''

The 57-year-old continued, ''She’s a woman who is seven months pregnant and she has been pursued and vilified and chased in the same way that Diana was and it’s history repeating itself.”

He added, ''We’ve seen how that ends. I can’t tell you how frustrating it is to see that,” referring to Princess Diana’s fatal car crash in 1997 during which she was being chased by paparazzi.

His comments come after a report suggested he would be godfather to Harry and Meghan’s baby.

He said, ''Oh yes, I’ll be godfather of the royals apparently. No!”

He continued, ''I’m a father of twins, I have enough sh– to deal  with – literally!” 

Meghan and Harry announced their pregnancy in October 2018 and their little one is due to arrive at the end of April or beginning of May.

Over the course of the last three weeks, news reports detailing Harvey Weinstein's alleged conduct within the entertainment industry have been increasing at an alarming rate.

The vast majority of stories have, in many ways, implicated the individuals employed by the movie mogul, while others assert that Weinstein's behaviour was Hollywood's worst-kept secret.

Indeed, a number of high-profile names have admitted they heard whisperings over the course of their career, but insist they were utterly oblivious to the extent of Weinstein's alleged actions.

Weighing in on the subject, it appears George Clooney is keen for all those who were complicit in the cover-up to be held accountable.

"Somebody knew. There were people that brought young actresses to his hotel room," the 56-year-old actor argued while appearing on Today.

"Whoever had that story and didn't write it, should be responsible. I want to know what kind of ad dollars were spent from the Weinstein Company and Miramax," he added.

The Ocean's Eleven star acknowledged that while he was aware of Weinstein' extra-marital affairs, the information was provided by Weinstein himself, and didn't lead George to believe that crimes were beng committed.

"Most of the rumours I knew, were from Harvey himself. I had an affair with in actress or that actress," he explained.

"We should have known this. This is violating women. This is assault. This is – this is silencing women."

George Clooney is absolutely fuming after a French magazine papped and printed photos of his newborn children without permission.

George and wife Amal have threatened legal action, after the images of the twins were splashed across the front page of the magazine, entitled Voici.

The images were taken at their villa near Lake Como, Italy.

'Over the last week photographers from Voici magazine scaled our fence, climbed our tree and illegally took pictures of our infants inside our home.'

'Make no mistake the photographers, the agency and the magazine will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law,' Clooney told People in a statement.

'The safety of our children demands it.'

Many celebrities opt to have their children's faces blurred in paparazzi images to protect their identities, or choose to keep their children out of the public eye entirely. 

George and Amal, who have been relatively private about their personal lives, have made it clear that they feel that privacy will assist them in keeping their children safe.

We saw an amazing Never Have I Ever game played with the boyos of One Direction on the Ellen DeGeneres show, but pairing up Rihanna with a clearly bemused George Clooney was a great call. 

While George is out promoting his new Coen brothers film, Hail, Caesar!, Rihanna is also on the promotional bandwagon as she garners publicity for her new album ANTI. 

And what better way to promote their various projects with a combined game of Never Have I Ever. 

With questions such as "Never have I ever texted a nude selfie" and "Never have I ever hooked up with someone over 50", Ellen was certainly not holding back on the question front. 

Later on in the show, George spoke about his marriage proposal to Amal. 

"I plotted the whole thing out. I had the ring hidden behind her. I had music playing. Everything was planned out and I've cooked dinner. Usually she'll dress up, and now she's like, 'Maybe we'll just order in. And I go, 'No, no, no. I've made dinner,' " recalls the actor. 

"Finally I blew out the candle and I said, 'I think the lighter's in the box behind you.' And she reaches around and she pulls out the box and I've got just the ring sitting in there and she pulls it out and she looks at it and she's like, 'It's a ring.'

"I got down on my knee and said, 'I couldn't imagine spending the rest of my life without you.' And she kept looking at the ring and she was looking at me and she was like, 'Oh, my God,'"

"Finally I literally said, 'Look, I hope the answers yes, but I need an answer I'm 52 and I could throw out my hip pretty soon.' And she said, 'Oh, yes.' "

Cute!

Heather McGowan might just be the envy of her whole town. Actually, she’s probably the envy of women across the globe.

The Glasgow-based wedding planner, 32, managed to score herself a date with George Clooney after winning a contest hosted by a Scottish deals and events website itison

George Clooney: Scottish Woman Wins Lunch Date

"It still seems a bit surreal, and now that it's over, I can try to absorb all the little bits of the day," she says of her date with the actor. The oh-so romantic affair included lunch at Tigerlily bar in Edinburgh, according to The Scotsman newspaper.

Clooney had been in Edinburgh to visit Social Bite, a café that supports the local homeless community. 

While we thought that he really was the perfect gentleman, it would seem that all may not be as it appears. Heather revealed some interesting insights about the A-Lister, namely that his punctuality is a little lacking. 

He was late for their lunch date. However, Heather explained that she didn’t mind all that much.

"It let me get accustomed to the situation and compose myself a bit," she says. We imagine we might feel the same way. 

She said that when the pair did sit down for their date, they had plenty to talk about. Heather, who was born in the US was delighted when the two got a chance to talk American politics. 

She also discovered that when it came to his wedding to Amal, George was very involved. We knew it! We wonder if he was in charge of the flowers? Heather didn’t reveal that much.

She did however say that he was “the most charming man” and the best date she’s ever been on. Lucky lady indeed.

It looks like another all-female cast reboot is on the way!

Sandra Bullock is set to star in an all-female version of Ocean's Eleven, according to Playlist.

There's no word yet on who will star alongside Sandra in the film, but it is speculated that Jennifer Lawrence may sign on. That's because the film's director, Gary Ross, also directed The Hunger Games. YES!

Writer Olivia Milch is working on the script. She's already written the scripts for two female-centered movies, Little Women and Queen & Country.

According to Playlist, the reboot has been in the works since last year, with George Clooney, director Steven Soderbergh and producer Jerry Weintraub controlling the project.

Jerry Weintraub, however, passed away this summer, leading to some speculation if the project will go ahead.

But Playlist reports: "Sources close to the project tell The Playlist that the movie is still definitely in the works, and Milch has handed in a draft of the screenplay."

This sees the second reboot of a popular movie franchise with an all-female cast. A new Ghostbusters film is on its way to cinemas in the next year which will star Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon.

The Oscar-winning actor and his human rights lawyer wife stopped by the San Gabriel Valley Humane Society this week and took home a four-year-old basset hound called Millie.

According to the shelter's website, Millie was brought in after she was found digging for food outside a restaurant earlier this month.

She landed on the Clooney's radar when they saw her on Petfinder, an app that lets you browse through hundreds of animals, so you can find the perfect one for your family. 

"They took the time to get to know her and vice versa," shelter spokesperson Lynn Collman told the Huffington Post of the couple's first meet-and-greet with Millie.

George and Amal also brought their cocker spaniel, Louie, along to make the decision. 

"[They were] making sure she was a good fit for their other rescue dog, and would be a good family member," Lynn told the website.

The visit clearly went well, as the shelter posted on Facebook congratulating the happy new family. #CutenessOverload
