George and Amal Clooney may be facing an unexpected challenge that could disrupt their family life in the U.S.

The couple, who reside in New York City with their 7-year-old twins Alexander and Ella, are reportedly at risk of being affected by new sanctions related to Amal’s legal work.

Amal, a prominent international human rights lawyer, was involved in advising the International Criminal Court (ICC) in a war crimes investigation against Israeli leaders.

This involvement has put her and other legal professionals under scrutiny. According to the Financial Times, the U.K. Foreign Office has warned several British lawyers that they may face consequences, including possible entry bans into the U.S.

This stems from Executive Order 14203, signed by former President Donald Trump, which imposes sanctions on ICC officials and others assisting the court. Amal advised during prosecutor Karim Khan’s investigation, which has drawn the attention of U.S. authorities.

If further actions are taken, Amal could be barred from entering the U.S., potentially disrupting the Clooneys’ life in New York, where they’ve been living since George began his recent theater run.

The couple, married since 2014, have always emphasized privacy and family stability.

Amal once told British Vogue they often take extra measures to keep their private life protected. George has also spoken fondly of their marriage, calling it life-changing.

With mounting political pressure, the Clooneys now face an uncertain chapter, where legal work may have personal consequences.
