No one likes listening to crying babies — even when they belong to A-list celebrities! That’s why George and Amal Clooney, who are parents of 6-month-old twins Alexander and Ella, gave first-class passsengers noise-cancelling headphones along with a personal note apologizing ahead of time if the infants made noise on a British Airways flight to England.

A source tells Us Weekly that director Quentin Tarantino happily accepted a pair of the custom-made headphones, which featured Clooney’s Casamigos tequila logo. “George was nervous,” says the source. “But the babies didn’t even make a peep.”

The Clooney kids are both developing their own distinct personalities. “Ella is very elegant and dainty and she has these big beautiful eyes; she looks like Amal . . . He’s just a thug, he’s a fat little boy, he laughs louder than everyone in the room; it’s the funniest thing,” the two-time Oscar winner, 56, told Extra in October. 

In August, the Suburbicon director admitted his life has changed drastically since becoming a father and boasted that he’s been changing diapers. “Suddenly, you’re responsible for other people, which is terrifying,” he revealed to the Associated Press. 

Of course he has the perfect partner in Amal, 39, his wife of three years. “She’s like an Olympic athlete,” he gushed. ”She’s doing so beautifully.”

When Clooney proposed to Amal, he never thought they would have children together.  “We didn’t plan on it. We never even talked about it until until after we were married, which is funny,” Clooney admitted to the The Hollywood Reporter in September. “There was an assumption we didn’t want them. And then, after the wedding, Amal and I were talking and we just felt we’d gotten very lucky, both of us, and we should share whatever good luck we’ve got. It would seem self-centered to just have that belong to us.” 

Clooney and the British human rights lawyer tied the knot in a star-studded Italian wedding in September 2014.
