AceShowbiz - Matt Damon was one of the people who first heard about Amal Alamudin's pregnancy news. The "Jason Bourne" actor revealed that he almost started crying when George Clooney told him about the exciting news last fall.
"I was working with him last fall and he pulled me aside on set and I mean, I almost started crying," said "The Great Wall" star to Entertainment Tonight Canada. "I was so happy for him. And I was like, 'How far along is she?' And he goes, 'Eight weeks.' "
Damon then remembered saying, " 'Are you out of your mind? Don't tell anybody else! Don't tell anybody else! Don't you know the 12-week rule?' " He added, "Like, of course he doesn't." He said, "Then four weeks later, I'm like, 'We're good, right?' " Clooney replied, "We're good."
Damon continued, "So yeah, I'm thrilled for him. She's amazing. He hit the jackpot. Just on every level. She is a remarkable woman. They're gonna be great. They're gonna be awesome parents. Those kids are lucky." However, it's still unclear whether their baby twins are boys or girls.
George Clooney and his wife tied the knot in September 2014 at Ca' Farsetti, a palace in Venice, Italy. The wedding was attended by some other big names including Damon, Cindy Crawford, Bono and Emily Blunt.
