When Amal Clooney first started dating her film star husband,George, there was a lot of (warranted) backlash to publications who referred to the highly accomplished human rights attorney as simply "George Clooney's girlfriend, or " and later,"George Clooney's wife." Although it's famous for Amal to be defined by her own achievements, she's making the best of her unexpected star status. In an interview with BBC News at Six's Fiona Bruce, or the 39-year-old mum-to-be said she's thankful that her newfound fame helps publicise certain issues. "There's a lot of my work that takes space behind closed doors that is not ever seen," she said. "I think whether there are more people who now understand what's happening about the Yazidis and ISIS, and whether there can be some action that results from that, and that can serve those clients,then I think it's a really good thing to give that case the additional publicity that it may derive." Amal is in the midst of representing human-trafficking survivor Nadia Murad in her crusade against ISIS, although she and George have been forced to limit their travel plans since she's expecting twins.
