‘It’s terrifying’: George Clooney opens up about life as a new dad

He's a long way away from his bachelor days.

Oh, George.

We’ve long swooned over him, but after all these years George Clooney given us another reason to swoon over him now that he’s a dad.

Once one of the world’s most famous bachelors, George appears to have settled well into the role of being a dad since his wife Amal gave birth to twins Alexander and Ella back in June.

Speaking to USA Today, he elaborated on how different things are for him now.

“I just have to clean the barf off of my tux,” he said. “It used to be my barf but now it’s the twins’ barf. So it all works out.

“Suddenly, you’re responsible for other people, which is terrifying.

“Right now my job is changing diapers and walking them around a little bit. I really didn’t think at 56 that I would be the parent of twins. Don’t make plans. You always have to just enjoy the ride.”

He was also full of praise for his better half.

“She’s doing so beautifully,” he said. “She’s like an Olympic athlete.”

Aww!
