Speaking at an event awarding George the American Film Institute’s Lifetime Achievement Award, Amal opened up about the beginnings of her time with George, and brought all the feels:
"I met George when I was 35 and starting to become quite resigned to the idea that I was going to be a spinster," said Amal, reports USA Today. But, after they spent more time together, all that changed.
Amal basically made everyone cry (the audience-and George) when she confessed her devotion. “He is the person who has my complete admiration, and also the person whose smile makes me melt every time. My love, what I have found with you is the great love that I always hoped existed,” she said.
