Wildfires in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region of southeastern France forced the evacuation of actor George Clooney, his wife Amal Clooney, and their children from their residence in Brignoles. The family expressed uncertainty regarding the survival of their home in a letter to the local mayor, stating they had “no idea whether our beautiful home will survive.” Following the evacuation, the family appeared at a fundraiser for the Clooney Foundation for Justice held at Villa Passalacqua on Lake Como on August 10. The event marked a rare public appearance for their eight-year-old twins, Ella and Alexander, whom the couple typically keeps private. George Clooney, wearing a light gray suit, expressed concern for the local community during the evacuation, noting that the safety of residents was a primary concern alongside the preservation of property. On August 13, the family hosted a charity dinner for the Clooney Foundation for Justice at the Passalacqua Hotel, arriving by boat. The foundation, established by the couple in 2016, provides legal aid and supports human rights initiatives in over 40 countries, focusing on women’s rights, freedom of speech, and fair trials. During the event, Amal Clooney wore a black vintage John Galliano midi dress with floral embroidery, accessorized with gold tasseled earrings and a burgundy, flower-pot-shaped woven bag.
