In an interview with CBS a few days ago, the actor claimed he has never, in 11 years of marriage, argued with his wife Let’s just accept it to be true that you can be married to a lawyer for more than a decade and never find yourself in an argument These are some of the most beautiful people in the world They can have houses and holidays wherever they want They can buy whatever clothes and dinners they choose What would you have to argue about if you lived such a gilded existence I do find myself wondering about that quite often these days especially when I see the strange spectacle of enormously wealthy and successful celebrities arguing with strangers online Maybe the fact this does happen is evidence that artificial grievances can always be invented I can dream that I would not end up like that I would live a life surrounded only by beauty I would buy new socks and new peach silk underwear every day I would spend every minute of my days smiling calmly And if I did run into problems with my partner I would simply employ someone – let’s call them a relationship tension expert – to work things out on my behalf argue with our partners with some degree of regularity But I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing As long as nobody is using physical force or other forms of intimidation or manipulation I think an argument can be a very productive tool in a relationship As a straight woman living in a society that tends to teach men from a young age that household chores are beneath them I have always advocated for arguing ferociously about chores and tidiness from the very start of a relationship An unwiped counter should be met with a great tirade about not feeling understood and loved and having your personhood squashed and so on No sane person would rather have an argument like this than wipe the counter if you have this argument on a grand enough scale or wipe the counter and clean the fridge shelves and put someone else’s underwear in the wash basket for ever I made my choice long ago and never looked back ‘In general if you have had the same argument again and again you will have it again and again and again.’ Photograph: Image Source/AlamyThere are other things I have learned about arguments in relationships over the years If you tell your partner calmly that something is annoying or upsetting and they continue to do it anyway Another thing: you can never have a productive argument with someone when you don’t agree on the basic facts of what happened And I don’t mean how people felt about things – I mean if one person says the car crashed and the other says it didn’t And you should never agree that you saw a car crash when you didn’t Agreeing with someone else’s fantasy to placate them is a very dangerous thing to do I learned a simple strategy for this a little while ago Now I just say: “We are living in different realities We cannot have a productive conversation about this until that changes.” you will have it again and again and again or one of you can accept that things won’t change And arguing about something for ever is a bad option I am a strong advocate for making your red lines known clearly and then walking away if they are crossed I can’t have my relationship tension expert or my daily fresh silk underwear but I can have a relatively peaceful life all the same Rachel Connolly is a writer and the author of the novel Lazy City The high-profile British human rights lawyer sat on the expert legal panel that advised the International Criminal Court on evidence from the Gaza conflict Showbiz Sign up to our free weekly newsletter for exclusive competitions I would like to be emailed about offers, event and updates from Evening Standard.

the court to issue an international arrest warrant for Netanyahu The recommendation was made on the basis that the Israeli leader had committed war crimes in Gaza including using starvation as a method of warfare during his country’s fight against Hamas terrorists.  Amal has now been warned by Britain’s Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office that they are at risk of sanctions by the Trump administration, according to a Financial Times report The alleged sanctions follow the United States’s long history of criticizing the court The Washington Examiner reached out to the White House for comment but did not receive a response The news comes after Amal Clooney sat on a panel that recommended lead ICC prosecutor Karim Khan issue an arrest warrant for Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ICC issued the warrant in November 2024 leading Israel to condemn “the broken & immoral international system which encourages terrorists and radical regimes while tying the hands of democracies seeking to defend themselves.”  the Biden administration operated under the policy that the ICC did not have jurisdiction over the war in Gaza Then-President Joe Biden issued a strong statement condemning the court for its “outrageous” decision and implying there was “equivalence” between Israel and Hamas.  A host of countries belonging to the ICC have declined to follow through with the directive to arrest a sitting world leader After President Donald Trump came to power in January through an executive order issuing the sanctions The court had “engaged in illegitimate and baseless actions targeting America and our close ally Israel” after saying the Israeli leaders should answer charges that included “murder and other inhumane acts,” Trump said.  His alleged move against Amal Clooney comes after she posted on the Clooney Foundation for Justice website that she served on the ICC panel “because I believe in the rule of law and the need to

CLOONEY SAYS DROPPING SUPPORT FROM BIDEN WAS HIS ‘CIVIC DUTY’ The actor has largely brushed off Trump’s comments.  “I don’t care,” George Clooney said during a CBS interview earlier this month “I’ve known Donald Trump for a long time My job is not to please the president of the United States My job is to try to tell the truth when I can and when I have the opportunity.” By but I’ve been dying to read Amal El-Mohtar’s solo debut since the moment I first heard about it I’ve consumed every bit of short fiction of hers I could find and reread This Is How You Lose the Time War enough that I know its ebbs and flows by heart Her short fiction has always been gorgeous and masterfully crafted The thought that we would soon be blessed with something longer has long been a wish of mine I’ve been working as a book critic long enough now (more than a decade) that writing reviews usually comes pretty easily I often start writing it in my head while I’m reading so that by the time I finish the book I know what themes I want to talk about and how I plan to structure the review where I turn the final page with no idea how to write the review Sometimes it’s because the book is so bad or I disliked it so thoroughly that I can’t think of anything positive to say the book is mediocre at best and my struggle is finding a way to talk about liking something despite it not being done with any particular craft or uniqueness And sometimes my writer’s block hits because the book is so goddamn good that I know whatever I write about it will never adequately convey how much you need to drop everything and read this book right now so I can have someone else to flail about it with The River Has Roots is solidly in that third camp.  I stared at my computer screen for three days before I was finally able to work up the courage to start typing I feel like running up to random people in the street and shaking them I want to buy dozens of copies to throw at strangers like that Melissa McCartney gif I want to clear an entire shelf on my bookcase just to put two dozen copies of this book on it I want it on every SFF awards nomination list next year and I want El-Mohtar to earn so much she can swim in her royalties Scrooge McDuck style.  Four hundred words into this review and I still haven’t told you anything about the book other than how much I loved it are the youngest in a long line of willow tree farmers Language in all its trickeries and complications forms the basis of all magic At the edge of the small town of Thistleford the River Liss passes through the Modal Lands “There is grammar that is ruled like a kingdom and grammar that is ruled like a composition book which breaks the real into the true.”  Marking the borders between the Modal Lands and the regular world are two ancient willow trees to whom the girls sing to twice a day as part of some contract made so long ago no one remembers who or why All their lives the girls are drawn to the Professors and the Modal Lands and Esther yearns for what Rin cannot give the Modal Lands are something to regard with a healthy but distant respect Both girls dream of a life together but neither quite know the shape that future will take Pollard makes the decision for them after a heated confrontation This act of violence is where the fairy tale feel really comes into play And by “fairy tale” I don’t mean one of those cute modern versions where everyone lives happily ever after but the old kind the kind where death and suffering are standard and being a good person doesn’t spare you tragedy The text is poetic and lyrical. It reads like a fairy tale that is both true and legendary at the same time. If I had to compare El-Mohtar to anyone, it would be Susanna Clarke; the novella gave me real The Wood at Midwinter vibes Part of the story is told as if you’re there watching the sisters like an omniscient god and part of it has the feel of a grandparent or beloved auntie reading you a bedtime story It’s short enough that you can get through it in one sitting something you’ll probably do regardless because it’s impossible to put down The River Has Roots is available from Tordotcom Publishing The audiobook is also great because Amal and her sister play the harp The Reactor newsletter is the best way to catch up on the world of science fiction “The sky above the port was the color of television For compliance with applicable privacy laws: Jennifer Lopez has released a thrilling video message amid ongoing controversy involving Hollywood’s power couple George Clooney and Amal Clooney JLo posted a clip on her Instagram ahead of her first tour in six years Jennifer can be seen preparing for her upcoming tour titled dance all summer...#UpAllNight #JLoLiveln2025.” Jennifer’s exciting video message comes after some news outlet reported that Amal allegedly does not like her husband’s fondness for the Ain't Your Mama singer Ben Affleck’s ex wife also watched George Clooney’s Good Luck and Good Night Broadway premiere last month “Amal certainly doesn’t suspect any hanky-panky but she’s not pleased at how well George and J.Lo seem to get along.” George and J.Lo probably wouldn’t have reconnected to the degree they did.” Jennifer Lopez is excited to perform her first tour in six years after My Party faces potential US entry ban due to her International Criminal Court work the publication reported that Amal Clooney reportedly gave legal advice to the court in a war crimes case against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant over the war in Gaza Foreign Office reportedly recently warned lawyers giving legal advice to the International Criminal Court that they could face sanctions due to a February executive order President Donald Trump signed They were married at Ca' Farsetti in the city of Venice by George Clooney's friend Walter Veltroni an Italian politician who served as the country's deputy prime minister between 1996 and 1998 Given George Clooney's affection for his wife and children fans believe he might consider leaving the US if Amal's entry is denied It's been slightly over a decade since George and Amal Clooney married and their relationship is still going strong During an appearance on CBS Mornings on Monday the "ER" star spoke about his marital life and what it's like to be a dad While reflecting on his relationship with his wife Clooney recalled a joint interview they did on the same show two years earlier "Amal and I, you know, we were here with you once before, and remember we said we'd never had an argument "We're trying to find something to fight about."
