George Clooneyhas reiterated his support for his friendMeghan Markle.
The actor, 57, told a British morning show that she was just trying to “live her life,” but had to contend with “unkind” commentary and “unjust” media attention.
Speaking in Scotland, where he and wifeAmalhad received a donation for their foundation, he toldGood Morning Britain: “I think it’s a little unfair at times when – I’ve seen it when the press can turn on you for sort of ridiculous reasons and for almost nothing, and it seemed to me to be a little unjust since [Meghan] hadn’t done anything except just happen to live her life.”
He added that the Duchess of Sussex, who is eight months pregnant, is “a really kind and smart and intelligent young woman.”
George also praised Meghan andPrince Harryas a “really wonderful, loving couple.”
“Most of it you can just shrug off and not pay attention to, but sometimes it’s unkind,” the star said.

“They’re just chasingMeghan Markleeverywhere, she’s been pursued and vilified,” Clooney told reporters at a press panel,according to Australia’sWhomagazine.
“She’s a woman who is seven months pregnant and she has been pursued and vilified and chased in the same way that Diana was, and it’s history repeating itself.”

George and Amal were among the guests at aspecial gala at Buckingham Palacethis week for one ofPrince Charles‘ charities – and the actor and director joked to the morning show that royal grandfather Charles was something of a party animal!
“Charles got really crazy and started dancing on the tables…I was surprised to see that. He had such good dance moves. Sir Tom Jones sang which was fun,” Clooney said. “It was actually a really great night.”
