George and Amal Clooney: ‘Don’t post pictures of our children’ | gossip

entertainment">“I am a public figure and have accepted that the often pushy photographers are part of the price I pay to do my job,” Clooney said in the letter. Deadline published Thursday evening. “Our children have not made that commitment. My wife persecutes terrorist groups on the job and we take as many measures as possible to keep our family safe. We cannot protect our children if the media put their faces on the cover.”

entertainment">The actor continues: “We have never sold pictures of our children, we are not on social media and we never post pictures because if we did we would put their lives in danger. That’s not paranoia, it’s a very real threat, with very real consequences. We hope you agree that the need to sell ads is no greater than the need to endanger innocent children.”

entertainment">Clooney says he wrote the letter after Daily Mail photos of Billie Lourd’s one-year-old son, the daughter of Carrie Fisher and Hollywood agent Bryan Lourd. The British newspaper later removed those images.
