Clooney, Balsam Divorce

Divorce0 Comments

The couple divorce after nearly three years of marriage. Clooney claims the reason for this divorce was his youth.

I probably, definitely, wasn’t someone who should have been married at that point, I just don’t feel like I gave Talia a fair shot.

George’s father, Nick:

Talia is a lovely girl. But they probably shouldn’t have got married while George’s career was on the verge of such a white-hot period. In truth, neither of them is to blame. There was just too much going on in their lives to give marriage the effort it needs. They both wound up getting hurt, which is really too bad.
