WHO’s Jenny Cooney Carrillo was in the middle of an interview with George Clooney about his exciting new show Catch-22 when he stopped the chat to address the elephant in the room.
Will George Clooney be the godfather to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s royal baby?
“Oh yes, I’ll be the godfather of the royals apparently,” he told us before laughing and confirming, “No!”
George was chatting to WHO about his new show, which you can the first look below!
He continued, “I’m the father of twins, I have enough sh– to deal with – literally!”
The 57-year-old, who is married human rights lawyer Amal Clooney, did touch on something dear to his heart – the irresponsible treatment of his friend and new royal Meghan Markle.
“I do want to say, they’re just chasing Meghan Markle everywhere, she’s been pursued and vilified.”
He 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 its history repeating itself.
“We’ve seen how that ends. I can’t tell you how frustrating that is, just seeing them broadcast a letter from a daughter to a father, she’s getting a raw deal there and I think it’s irresponsible and I’m surprised by that.”
