Breaking: George and Amal Clooney set to leave $8.3m French chateau behind – report

With an eye-watering fortune of $570 million, it’s not surprising that George and Amal Clooney have multiple properties in their impressive portfolio.

The couple, who wed in September 2014, have homes in the States, the UK, and Lake Como in Italy. In 2021, they purchased a breathtaking 18th-century chateau on a 425-acre wine estate in Provence.

However, George, 63, and Amal, 46, who are parents to seven-year-old twins Alexander and Ella, could be set to wave goodbye to their stunning home in Brignoles in light of the A-list actor’s next major project.

George and Amal Clooney reportedly waving goodbye to France?
According to a report by French Closer, the Clooneys could be set to leave behind their gorgeous Brignoles bolthole, albeit temporarily, for a stint in New York next year.

Ocean’s Eleven actor George will make his debut on Broadway in the theatrical adaption of his 2005 film Good Night and Good Luck in the spring of 2025.

The report in the French publication indicates that his work in the Big Apple means they will leave behind their chateau in favour of an apartment in New York City and a new school for the children.

However, it’s unlikely that the move will be permanent since it’s no secret that George and Amal adore French culture and countryside living.

It’s more likely the pair will keep hold of their home and visit from time to time, perhaps during breaks from George’s theatre run, and return once his stint on Broadway comes to an end.

Since purchasing their Brignoles property in 2021, the family have more than settled in, with the French magazine In Touch reporting how George and Amal love the idea of raising the kids predominantly in France.

The lifestyle of the town offers them plenty of privacy and quiet living, perfect for the pair who prefer a more down-to-earth lifestyle than the hustle and bustle of grand cities. George even revealed how his two children can speak French.

What’s more, Paris Match also stated that George planted 172 hectares of olive trees around his home after concerns about a lack of fencing.

His priority is to maintain a “peaceful life” for his family, and the picturesque commune in the Var department is the perfect place for it.
