You’re on top of your George and Amal news PAN.  Thanks!  

Wonder if Nick and Nina went on to Sonning to be with the grandkids?  I assume the twins weren’t in Ireland with mom and dad.

No, according to many reports they were there too - and I'm guessing that they all went to NYC.

The hotel they stayed in is to die for, Donnamarie

https://ballyfin.com/ No wonder George joked about how they're all doing well!

Apparently George and Amal met up with Bono for dinner in Dublin too. Great that this news only came out after they'd left yesterday....

Hollywood actor George Clooney plans to return to Ireland next year following a brief visit to meet his cousins over the Easter break.

The planned family get together was organised by his parents, renowned broadcaster Nicholas (aged 85) and his writer wife Nina (aged 80), who touched down into the country from the US last week.

He was accompanied by his human rights lawyer wife, Amal, and two-year-old twins Alexander and Ella. The couple hosted the family reunion at the five-star, award-winning luxury hotel Ballyfin House in Co. Laois to also mark the actor’s first visit to Ireland.

Distant cousin Andy Ring who met with the 57-year-old actor explained: “They are talking about coming back again next year but qualified that by saying that he could be back before then as he does a lot of things on impulse.

“I never met a more entertaining man he truly regaled us all for hours. Conversations just flowed amongst us. He and Amal were totally down to earth with us all.

"There were around 15 of us there to meet them at the hotel and the jokes and banter was wonderful. He really listened intently to the conversation. He wanted us all to take photos together for the memory books.

"It was a great surprise to us when we were told that George, Amal and the kids were coming along to meet us.”

The family jetted out of Ireland on Sunday morning but not before also meeting with U2 frontman Bono and Taoiseach Leo Varadkar for dinner on Friday and Saturday night.

In 2005, an American genealogist discovered George Clooney’s Irish roots in Windgap, Co Kilkenny, and Abbeyleix, Co Laois, resulting in his parents visiting 12 years ago.

The Clooneys have Irish heritage on both sides of the family, though most significantly on the paternal side.



His father’s great-great-grandfather, Nicholas Clooney, emigrated to the US from Co Kilkenny.

George's relative, Sarah Clooney, who was born in Abbeyleix and died a few years ago, worked in a factory also in the town which made carpets for the Tita

he does a lot of things on impulse.

What?

He's spontaneous, It's Me.

Can't say I blame him, given the heavy schedule and advanced diary he must have

Right

He plans a lot
No spontaneous

Not really. Apparently he does do things on the spur of the moment too...

Yes that is what he said he does thing on impulse. I can imagine him just saying let's go and going .

I can't
I have really difficult to agree with you
