Actor George Clooney's Wife Amal Reveals Why Guests To Her Home Are Banned From Using Phones

Amal Clooney has revealed her household rule for guests to safeguard her kids' privacy.
The human rights lawyer, 47, and husband George, 64, are parents to eight-year-old twins Ella and Alexander, and reside in the English countryside.

In a new interview, she explained that she has banned phones at her home in order to remove any 'intrusions' and to 'minimise any impact' on her kids.

Speaking to Glamour last week alongside close friend Charlotte Tilbury, she was asked about how she maintains her privacy in a world where everything has become more public.
The mother-of-two replied: 'Creating private moments and spaces is becoming increasingly difficult. But that’s also why we entertain a lot at home. I now have a phone basket that I use to take everyone’s phones away!

'It’s important to get that balance where you have time alone with your family and with your friends where people feel like you can have a safe and frank exchange. And I would say becoming a parent means you’re more troubled by some of the intrusions.
'So we do the best we can to minimise any impact on our children. We don’t put our children out there, we’ve never put their photo out there or anything like that.'
