When it comes to raising the family with his wife Amal, George Clooney prefers living in Hollywood glitz and glamour.
In a new interview with Esquire, the Academy Award winner's actor and director (sharing the 8-year-old twins, Ella and Alexander with his 11-year-old wife) pioneered his life in France and explained why they chose to evacuate their families to the countryside.
“You know, we live on a farm in France. I grew up on one farm all my life and when I was a kid, I hated the whole idea of it. But now, for them, it's like – they're not on an iPad, you know? They know? They have dinner for adults, they have to bring their dishes, and their dishes are all better. They have a lot of better lives.”

“I'm worried about raising our kids in Los Angeles in Hollywood culture. I don't think they'll ever be shaking in life.” “France – they kind of don't give S — about fame. I don't want them to walk around and worry about paparazzi. I don't want them to compare with other people's famous kids.”

The couple has homes all over the world, including one near the Clooney family in Italy, England and Kentucky.
In an interview with The New York Times earlier this year, Clooney candidly embraces the quiet life outside the city.
“Growing up in Kentucky, all I had to do is get rid of the farm and get rid of that life,” he told The Outlet. “Now, I find myself back in that life. I drive a tractor and all this stuff.”
In July, Amal detailed how she protected her family’s privacy while gaining constant attention.

“It's getting harder to create private moments and spaces,” Amal told Charm. “But that's why we entertain a lot at home. I now have a phone basket that I use to take everyone's phones away!”
“It is important to maintain a balance between being alone with family and friends, where people feel safe and candid in communication,” she explained.

When Amal became the mom of twins, it was crucial to admit that protecting her nurturing heart.
“I would say being a parent means you're more upset about certain invasions. So we try to minimize any impact on the child. We don't put the child there; we never put their photos there or anything like that.”
