On reflection in the new interview, the actor believes meeting Amal later in life has made things easier.
Upon turning 60, the Hollywood star said he had a conversation with Amal about making more memories while he still feels young.
"I told Amal, ‘We have to focus on the next 20, 25 years of making sure that we’re jamming in everything we can.
He told the New York Times: "Then I didn’t really think I’d have much of a chance with her because I was 17 years older and she seemed to have everything she needed.”.
Thankfully, Amal's love towards George was mutual and they went on to marry in Venice, Italy a year later.
