The 'Midnight Sky' actor pleads with media outlets to 'refrain' from posting his children's faces over safety concerns considering wife Amal Clooney's job as a human rights lawyer.

AceShowbiz - George Clooney has written an open letter to media outlets asking them not to publish pictures showing his children's faces.

The actor, who is father to four-year-old twins Ella and Alexander with wife Amal Clooney, addressed his note to "The Daily Mail and other publications" as he expressed his concerns about his children's safety - particularly considering Amal's job as a human rights lawyer.

"Having just seen photos of Billie Lourd's one-year-old baby in your publication, and the fact that you subsequently took those pictures down, we would request that you refrain from putting our children's faces in your publication," he began. "I am a public figure and accept the oftentimes intrusive photos as part of the price to pay for doing my job. Our children have made no such commitment."

"The nature of my wife's work has her confronting and putting on trial terrorist groups and we take as much precaution as we can to keep our family safe. We cannot protect our children if any publication puts their faces on their cover. We have never sold a picture of our kids, we are not on social media and never post pictures because to do so would put their lives in jeopardy. Not paranoid jeopardy but real world issues, with real world consequences."

The "Midnight Sky" star concluded, "We hope that you would agree that the need to sell advertisement isn't greater than the need to keep innocent children from being targeted."
