GEORGE Clooney has been left stunned after having no idea his close pal Brad Pitt was getting divorced from his wife Angelina Jolie.
When asked by CNN what he thought about the news of their split, the actor says that he knew nothing about it.
George was at the UN General Assembly in New York when he was approached about his views on the split, to which he replied: “What happened?”
Upon learning Angelina was the one who had lodged the divorce papers, the 55-year-old said: “I didn't know that. Wow.
“I feel very sorry then.
“That's a sad story and unfortunate for a family.”
The news came as a shock to the Hollywood hunk, who has grown close to Brad over the years after starring in many films with him, including the Oceans series.
George was speaking at the UN with his wife Amal and President Barak Obama when he was told the news.
He was attending a roundtable meeting to discuss the refugee crisis.
This is a cause close to Angelina’s heart, who is also a UN Ambassador.
The news that Angelina is divorcing Brad was announced yesterday amid claims of an affair with actress
Marion Cotillard, partying with hookers, drug and alcohol abuse, and rows over their kids – but now he is hitting back and says she has put their children in danger.
She filed for divorce after two years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences, but he claims asking for sole custody of their children suggests he is a bad father.
