George Clooney is fed up with the witch hunt against Meghan Markle

Hey George, did I already say that I – excuse the word – really think you're the shit? I would spontaneously catch a piano for you, does that make sense? If there's one thing I find important in a friendship, it's loyalty, and you proved this week that you fit into all my friendship boxes – and into many more boxes but that eh, by the way.

What happened? The actor is standing up for his good friend Meghan Markle. During an interview that was actually supposed to be about promoting his new series Catch-22, he couldn't help but express his frustration about the witch hunt against the Duchess of Sussex. “Everyone is hunting Meghan Markle. Everywhere she goes, she is followed and slandered,” Clooney said. “She is a woman who is seven months pregnant, but she is being chased and insulted in the same way Diana was. History is repeating itself and we all know how that ended for Diana...”

Take that, paparazzi. Clear language. Oh and George, you're a hero.
