George Clooney has reached the end of his patience with the tabloids.
The actor, annoyed that the press continues, despite his requests, to release photos of his children Ella and Alexander, wrote an open letter to the
Daily Mail
asking the publication to end this invasion of his privacy.
The
Ocean's Eleven
star
takes advantage of the fact that the daily has agreed to remove photos of Billie Lourd's daughter to demand that the same be done for her children.
“I am a public figure and accept often intrusive photos as part of the price to pay for doing my job.
Our children did not make such a commitment.
The nature of my wife's work leads her to confront and judge terrorist groups and we take every precaution possible to ensure the safety of our family.
We cannot protect our children if any publication puts their faces on the cover, ”writes the star in the letter relayed by
The Hollywood Reporter
.
Real consequences
George Clooney has an unfortunate record with the
Daily Mail
. In 2014, when the newspaper spread false information about the mother of his wife Amal (who would have opposed their marriage, according to an article), the actor refused the apologies of those responsible and called the newspaper "the worst kind." tabloid ”. This time, he clearly weighs the physical integrity of his children in the balance.
“We have never sold a picture of our children, we are not present on social networks and we never publish pictures because it would put their lives in danger.
Not a paranoid endangerment, but real problems, with real consequences.
We hope you will agree that the need to sell advertising is no more important than the need to prevent innocent children from being targeted, ”he added.
The
Daily Mail
has yet to respond to the star's request.
