Hey there! Let me tell you a story about George Clooney. The legendary actor is not happy with the French magazine Voici. They went ahead and published the very first photos of his twins, Ella and Alexander, in their latest issue. The cover boldly claims these are "the very first pictures of the twins in the arms of their parents" captured at the Clooney family’s stunning home in Lake Como, Italy. Now, that's quite the scoop, but not everyone is celebrating.
More Inside: Rande Gerber, Amal's brother-in-law, recently shared how the Clooney twins are "The perfect mix of George and Amal!" Sounds like they've got some serious star genes running through them.
George Clooney is no stranger to the spotlight, but when it comes to his kids, he draws the line. "Over the last week, photographers from Voici magazine scaled our fence, climbed our tree, and illegally took pictures of our infants inside our home. Let me make this crystal clear — the photographers, the agency, and the magazine will face the full force of the law. The safety of our children demands nothing less," the 56-year-old actor stated firmly to E! News on July 28, 2017. That's a pretty strong message, and you can tell he means business.

Voici's Defense: Public Demand vs. Privacy
Not one to back down, Voici responded with their own statement to E! News, defending their actions. They argued that George and Amal have always been in the public eye. Remember their lavish wedding in Venice back in September 2014? It was a global event, and images of the happy couple were seen all over the world. “The birth of their twins, Ella and Alexander, was also widely discussed by the couple and their families. The images we published this Friday simply respond to the public's demand," a representative from the magazine explained.More Inside: George and Amal Clooney have decided they're done expanding their family after welcoming Ella and Alexander. "They have their boy and girl!" Fans can't help but feel that this duo has it all figured out.
Voici insists that the photos don't pose any danger to the Clooney family. They emphasized that people adore George Clooney and have been following his life story for years. "These pictures do not jeopardize Mr. Clooney, his wife, or their children," the magazine rep concluded. It seems like a battle of public interest versus personal privacy.

The Journey of Parenthood
Let's rewind a bit. George and Amal, 39, welcomed their bundle of joy, baby Alexander, at 12:54 p.m. on June 6, 2017, followed by his sister Ella just two minutes later at 12:56 p.m. In Touch Weekly had earlier revealed the couple's exciting news back in January 2017. An insider close to Amal shared, "Amal is pregnant with twins: a boy and a girl. When George and Amal found out it was twins, they were surprised but also a little scared because they both had said that one was enough." Parenthood is a journey, and it seems like the Clooneys are handling it with grace and love.
