The #1 Blind Item Site in the World!

Leaving Skinny Woman For Pretty Woman

EXCLUSIVE!

SOLVED!

UPDATED!

[Blind Gossip] This blind item is shocking because this well-known actor has not been married long… and because the woman for whom he is leaving his wife is a famous film actress!

Our over-50 actor is the greying but handsome star of many films. If they ever built a monument to handsome movie stars, he would be the man they select to pose for it.

We don’t know why he is gambling with his new marriage, but clearly something is not right. His new, foreign-born wife is well-educated… but perhaps she is a little too skinny or spacey for him?

He is leaving her for a famous film actress who is considered one of the prettiest women in Hollywood. She is married with kids. The actor and actress have known each other for a long time and have even worked together. However, no one other than their closest friends knew that they recently realized they belonged together!

They had a fling more than twenty years ago, but they have managed to stay friends since then. About six months ago, they were both so miserable in their marriages that they started calling each other every day. They started hooking up a few weeks later, then just realized that they were always supposed to be together. Believe me, they were as surprised as anyone when they figured it out!

How do we know this isn’t just a fling? They have purchased a home together!

Both our actor and the actress were rumored to be independently selling off their favorite properties, and it turns out they have have now purchased a home together in an upscale Los Angeles neighborhood called Holmby Hills. A separate source tells us:

They have both been selling off properties to prep for their divorces, and they went 50/50 on buying the HH house. [The house] never even hit the market. It was an all-cash deal. Yes, this was all done very quietly.

Here is the planned sequence of events: Our actress will announce her divorce in the next couple of weeks. Our actor will announce his divorce the Friday before Memorial Day weekend. She will move into their new home this summer so the kids can adjust before going back to school. The actor will follow in September.

It’s going to be a PR nightmare (two divorces plus them moving in together), but they’re both pros, so they’ll deal with it.

It’s going to be a wild summer of gossip!

[Optional] Do they make a good couple?

SOLVED!

George Clooney and Julia Roberts are a couple!

Every new couple needs a nickname, and we’re naming this couple… CLOOBERTS!

We know that this pairing is a shock, but maybe it shouldn’t be! Clooney and Roberts are long-time colleagues and friends, and both couples have been rumored to have relationship problems over the past year.

Clooberts’ relationship went beyond friendship while filming Money Monster, which will be in theaters next month.

After the film’s release, they will announce that they are divorcing their respective spouses. They will then move into their newly-purchased 12,000 square foot mansion in Holmby Hills.

George Clooney will be divorcing attorney Amal Alamuddin Clooney, whom he married less than 18 months ago.  Julia Roberts will be divorcing cameraman Danny Moder, whom she married in 2002.

The Clooneys do not have any children yet.

The Moder’s three children – Phinnaeus, Hazel, and Henry – will be splitting their time between their father’s house and Cloobert’s new house in Holmby Hills.

There were lots of clues, including references to Monuments Men and Pretty Women. Congratulations to Waitlemmeguess for being first with the correct answer and to Summer for doing a great job with the clues!

  6. ChicagoFleur says

    SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!!!!

    Actor: Clooney

    Actress: J. Roberts

    Clues: Too many to count

    [Optional] Do they make a good couple? She’s a wench! What is wrong with him?!

  7. KrazyCatLady says

    I don’t believe anything on April Fools on this site, but this Clooney and Julia Roberts

  8. sweetnews says

    Could this be George Clooney and Kelly Preston? The airport pic makes me think of his movie, Up in the Air, and he dated KP ages ago (married with two kids). Skinny wife would point to Amal, that’s all anyone every comments on when she’s in the news. It doesn’t say the film actress is someone he’s dated in the past, but with all the turmoil surrounding John T. I wonder if that’s why she is coming up in my mind. I’m interested to see what other guesses are. Juicy!

    • vickyf89 says

      Actress: Michelle Pfeiffer

      Clues: The picture looks like the poster from “Up In The Air”, a George Clooney film. His wife is a foreigner and a lawyer so it adds up.
      Clooney and Pfeiffer starred together in “One Fine Day” exactly 20 years ago.

    • vickyf89 says

      Or Julia Roberts, as they worked together in Ocean’s Eleven and she is literally PRETTY WOMAN.

  12. prissy says

    OMG this is juicy and crazy! Gerorge clooney and julia roberts?!! Good couple, age appropriate, equally famous, rich and narcissistic!

  13. tonisuebequal says

    Today is my favorite day of the year! You got me the first few years. So fun! Thanks Ace!

  14. mommagoosed says

    HAHAHAHA! Love you, Ace & BG!!! Happy April Fool’s Day!

    BTW, this would be George Clooney and Julia Roberts, IF it were true. However, since we know that this would never happen IRL, not going to fall for it. 🙂

  16. yinyang says

    Monuments – monuments men film
    Pretty woman
    Foreign born and thin. All that stuff. Short of actually putting their names, it’s pretty obvious.

    Which makes this your April Fools day post.

    Congrats. 🙂

  19. FlowerGirl says

    Meant to be George Clooney and Julia Roberts; but must be another BG April Fool’s prank.

  21. bamazalea says

    Clues: Pretty Woman, Julia’s movie, “Built a monument” The Monuments Men, George’s movie. Foreign born well-educated wife, Amal.

    • mar1ey says

      Do they make a good couple? No, but why would that stop them? Perhaps they are bearding for each other.

  28. brobdingnagian says

    Ha, ha! Thanks Ace, I look forward to this every April fools day!

    This one is very good!

  29. Jinkies says

    April Fool! 😉

    This is an April Fool’s Day Blind about George Clooney and Julia Roberts.

    Major Clue: It’s April Fool’s Day

  31. MrsB says

    Long time lurker, first time posting.

    George Clooney ( as the blind doesn’t suggest he has kids, everything else seems to fit)

    Seems to be hinting at Julia Roberts as the woman?? But I’m not convinced about that….

  32. JenLTX says

    Actor: George Clooney

    Actress: Julia Roberts

    Clues: built a monument – Monument Men, gambling with new marriage – Ocean’s 11, 12, 134789, prettiest women – Pretty Woman,

    [Optional] Do they make a good couple? Only on April Fool’s Day 😉

  34. sassypeach says

    Actor: George Clooney
    Actress: Julia Roberts
    Clues: Foreign born well educated wife, over 50 actor

  35. totskie says

    George Clooney and Julia Roberts, but this seems like the annual April Fool’s blind Ace always does.

  36. Virgo826 says

    I was waiting on the edge of my seat to see who you would target this April Fool’s!! Good Choice! But it would be more believable that George would leave Amal for Julia if Julia first changed her name to Julio…

    • boyzmom says

      Yes you got it!! They do this every year, but even though I was expecting it, I was slightly fooled.

    • squirrele says

      That’s what I’m thinking. Ace does at least one fake blind for April Fools’ Day. While this seems to be about Clooney and Roberts, I just don’t see it happening.

  38. blindlover says

    George Clooney
    Julia Roberts

    greying gambling (the OCeans franchise) prettiest women

    they were adorable in the Ocean’s movies….

  39. Rofl my Wofl says

    George Clooney the well known, over 50, graying handsome actor who starred in “The Monuments Men,” leaving his skinny, well educated, foreign wife Amal for longtime and supposedly “pretty” buddy Julia Roberts who starred in “Pretty Woman” and who recently put her Hawaii property on the market, and whom everybody already assumed he’d hooked up with since she’s a man eater.

    I don’t actually believe any of this will go down though. It’s wishful thinking.

  40. wfreshie says

    george cloony divorcing amal…don’t know the other female getting divorced…is this the april fools bg..you pull one of these every year!

  43. emster says

    George Clooney and Julia Roberts.
    They’re probably too old to care much about what anyone thinks anymore and just want to settle down and be happy for once.

    • chloedancer says

      I like the Roberts guess better. I missed te pretty woman clue! (Don’t know how but I did)

  48. goldiebell says

    George Clooney
    Julia Roberts
    Clues: prettiest woman, gambling (Ocean’s movies), the photo looks like the movie poster for “Up in the Air”

  51. sonironi says

    Actor: George Clooney

    Actress: Julia Roberts

    Clues: “pretty woman” “monuments” “worked together before” “gambling” for Oceans 11, Monument Men and obvi, Pretty Woman

    Also – this is for suuuuuuure an April Fools Blind 😉

  52. bertwheeler says

  53. Dancing with Mr D says

    No, it can’t be George Clooney and Julia Roberts?!?!?!?! Gasp!!!!

    Clues: pretty woman, skinny foreign-born wife.

  54. jimefrigo says

    Actor: George Clooney

    Actress: Julia Roberts

    Clues: Prettiest woman, the photo that resembles that movie George Clooney did about air miles and medicine, she has kids, Amal is british… or I might be wrong haha

    [Optional] Do they make a good couple? No

  55. thr65 says

    George Clooney and Julia Roberts. This is blatantly an April Fool’s joke. If it was real Hollywood would implode.

    • Seahawks12 says

      That’s the part I don’t get either. I agree with everyone on these people are, but everything we’ve ever read, been told, or assumed was that George bats for the other team. Could that have just been an assumption because he never married. And could he have never married because Julia was never available?

  59. phoenixfire says

    Taking a guess here:

    Actor: Kevin Spacey

    Actress: Julia Roberts

    Clues: the fact that they used spacey in the blind and that they’re selling properties, which Julia Roberts was doing with her Hawaii property, if I remember correctly.

    • phoenixfire says

      Damn. Just realized this is probably an April fool’s blind. This is the first year I’ve fallen for it. You got me, blindgossip, you got me lol.

  60. dianamichelle says

    Actor: CLOONEY

    Actress: JULIA

    Clues: monument (Monuments Men), gambling (Oceans films), foreign born wife=Amal, prettiest (Pretty Woman), they have worked together on films, GC just sold a property.. I mean there are a frillion clues in there

    [Optional] Do they make a good couple? YASSSS!!!

  64. shayjay says

    Actor: George Clooney

    Actress: Julia Roberts

    Clues: Pretty Woman

    [Optional] Do they make a good couple? I thought he was gay & Amal was his beard?????

  67. MomaJackie says

    I get drawn into these on April 1st every year. My favorite, Brad, Angie and the plans for their children. Happy April Fools Day!!

  68. peachykeen says

    this HAS to be George Clooney and Julia Roberts. So many clues: Amal is skinny,
    well educated, and foreign born. Julia is Pretty Woman.

  72. denisenauman says

    George Clooney/Amal (well educated, scary skinny)

    Picture : Looks like Up in the Air movie he was in
    “Monument”: Monuments Men

    Julia Roberts. (Prettiest woman: Pretty Woman)

    Easy one! 🙂

  73. tuckerlee123 says

    Wow, George Clooney and Julia Roberts! I always thought George had a taste for the boys, but I can see him and Julia together. Both have massive egos and probably feed off of each other.

  74. mlever2180 says

    George Clooney
    Julia Roberts
    “prettiest women” (Pretty Woman)
    “monument” (Washington Monument–George)
    “Foreign-born wife is well educated” (She has an LLM, among other awards/degrees)
    They are in a new movie together, out in May
    The picture reminds me of the key art from Clooney movie “Up in the Air”

  81. Maurelle says

    Actor: George Clooney,
    Actress: Julia Roberts

    Clues: monument to him-movie Monument Men, Pretty Woman for Julia, too skinny, well-educated wife is Amal

    [Optional] Do they make a good couple? Call my cynical, but I think George realized that he wasn’t get the praise/respect that having a lawyer wife would bring and he bailed. Also think that Julia misses the spotlight and they both realized that as a team they could go toe-to-toe with the Brad/Angie combo. So for PR, yes.

    • Seahawks12 says

      Talk about a “Power Couple”! I mean this could push the Kardashians right off the front page! Let the games begin. This is better than the Presidential race.

    • PrincessConnie1 says

      IF they were younger and IF Clooney was straight, I think this match would make beautiful babies together…. IF it were not April Fool’s Day 🙂 🙂 🙂

  84. GirlPlease says

    Happy April fools ace!
    This fakie blind is about George clooney leaving Amal for Julia Roberts.

  85. awynhaus says

    George Clooney
    Julia Roberts

    Pretty woman, kids (Julia) over 50 greying actor, foreign born wife, educated, skinny (George)

    APRIL FOOLS!

  90. nonsequiturchica says

    Ahhh the annual April Fools post. Nice!

    Actor: George Clooney

    Actress: Julia Roberts

    Clues: grey hair, foreign born wife, pretty woman, picture could be from “up in the air”

  92. afternoondelight says

    George Clooney
    Julia Roberts
    Clues: Pretty woman, the pic of the man at the airport is like “Up in the Air.” Amal is super skinny, foreign born and well educated since she is a barrister.

    I thought Clooney’s marriage was for his political aspirations? Everyone knew that the marriage was fake and isn’t Clooney rumored to be gay?

  93. michellev27 says

    George Clooney and Julia Roberts

    Clues: gambling

    This is such a April Fools prank!!! Love it!!

  94. killyourdarlings says

    Optional: meh

  96. Shoppy says

    RATS! I was honestly so excited about this! Clooney & Julia finally together! But then I realized it’s April Fool’s. Good one, Ace! You got me 🙂

  97. Miss Marple says

    Hazarding a guess here… Julia Roberts + George Clooney
    Clues: Pretty Woman
    ‘Wild’ as in Horses of Mongolia
    Gambling = Oceans 11/12
    Plus Julia has been offloading property – including her favourite in Hawaii… Or something like that! Not sure about Clooney – although the Daily Hate had published an article a fees years back about Lake Como. Duh duh duh duhhhh – to be continued…

  99. arwyn89 says

    Actor: George Clooney

    Actress: Julia Roberts

    Clues: they’ve worked together (oceans), both married.

  100. ccattwood says

    George Clooney, (monument movie, handsome etc) and Julia Roberts (pretty woman/actress) Amal being the skinny foreigner. Oh dear, I actually don’t like this. Bound to fail. Isn’t George gay?
