George Clooney and his wife Amal Clooney attended the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, on May 19, 2018. The Clooneys were among the 200 invited to the private evening reception at Frogmore House.

George Clooney, the American actor and filmmaker, arrived at St. George's Chapel looking dapper in a dark grey suit and a pale pink or yellow tie. As he walked in, he smiled at the crowd and greeted them by saying, "hi guys."

Inside the chapel, the Clooneys could be seen chatting with Idris Elba and his fiancé, Sabrina Dhowre. They were joined by other celebrities, including Oprah Winfrey, Priyanka Chopra, and several of Meghan's Suits co-stars, including Gina Torres, Sarah Rafferty, and Rick Hoffman.

George Clooney's outfit at the wedding

George Clooney is known for his hit-and-miss casual style, but he certainly dressed to impress for his wedding to Amal Alamuddin in Venice, Italy, in 2014. The groom wore an evening suit made by his good friend Giorgio Armani, which was excellently executed in both fit and accessories. Clooney's wedding outfit was smooth and simple, allowing his bride to shine—and shine she did in a custom-made Oscar de la Renta gown.

The day after the wedding, Clooney wore another Armani number—a well-tailored grey two-piece with a slight sun-reflecting sheen, worn with brown Oxfords, a white shirt, a dark grey tie, and Persol shades.

Four years later, in 2018, Clooney attended the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, where he and his wife, Amal, guest bartended at the reception. For this wedding, Clooney wore a grey suit and a pale yellow tie, which matched his wife's goldenrod Stella McCartney dress and fascinator.

George Clooney's wife Amal's outfit at the wedding

On 27 September 2014, Amal Clooney, nee Alamuddin, wed her real-life prince charming, George Clooney, at the Aman Canal Grand hotel in Venice, Italy. The bride dazzled in a custom-made French lace Oscar de la Renta wedding gown with a bateau neckline and a sweeping tulle train. The designer loved the dress so much that he added a similar design to his fall 2015 bridal collection.

Amal's dress featured a floor-brushing train with hand-embroidered pearls and diamanté accents. The brunette bride paired her gown with a sparkling 7-plus-carat engagement ring, which her husband had helped design.

During the reception, Amal changed into a second custom-made Oscar de la Renta frock that featured flapper-like fringe.

George Clooney's popularity on Twitter

While George Clooney may have once claimed that any celebrity is a "moron" if they're on Twitter, his appearance at the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in 2018 certainly generated a lot of buzz on the platform.

Clooney and his wife, Amal, were among the 200 invited to the private evening reception at Frogmore House, and their arrival at the wedding did not go unnoticed by Twitter users. One user described Clooney as "the most handsome man at the Royal Wedding", while others praised his silver fox status. Clooney's popularity was not only limited to his looks, as some Twitter users also commented on his fashion sense, noting that he looked dapper in a grey suit and pale yellow tie.

Clooney's presence at the wedding even sparked comparisons to other male celebrities in attendance, such as David Beckham and Prince Harry himself. Despite his previous comments about celebrities on Twitter, Clooney's own popularity on the platform was evident as people took to Twitter to express their admiration for the actor.

While Clooney may not be an active Twitter user himself, his presence at high-profile events like the royal wedding continues to spark conversations and reinforce his status as a well-loved public figure.

George Clooney's friendship with Harry

George Clooney and his wife Amal were among the A-listers who attended Prince Harry's wedding to Meghan Markle in 2018. The couple's friendship with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex was confirmed when they attended the royal wedding. However, according to reports, the Clooneys had told another wedding guest that they "didn't know" Harry and Meghan. Despite this, Meghan and Amal reportedly became close after the wedding. A source told People Magazine in 2018:

> Meghan and Amal have known each other for a while [and share] many interests. Amal has been helping Meghan settle into London life. It was a very natural friendship from day one.

The couples grew so close that there were even rumours that Clooney was going to be the godfather of Harry and Meghan's son, Archie.

Omid Scobie also claimed that Harry and George bonded over their shared love for motorbikes and basketball.

George Clooney has also been vocal about his support for Harry and Meghan, defending them against negative media scrutiny. In an interview, Clooney shared:

> We live not too far from one another and we have dinners and stuff and we’re friends with them for all the reasons that you’re friends with anybody. They’re just really nice, fun, kind people, they’re a very loving couple, and they’re going to be great parents.

However, as of 2023, reports suggest that the friendship between the two couples has cooled off, with rumours claiming that the Clooneys have "ditched" Harry and Meghan as close friends.
